God works with ordinary people like you and me in His church. The only requirement is that we have trusted His great offer of salvation through faith in Jesus' work. We do not emphasize formal membership but welcome all to hear the good news of eternal life that Jesus offers, and we desire any who know Him to join with us in learning more and living more for Him.
Once we have trusted in Him for salvation He tells us we are adopted into His family. This is a wonderful eternal family, in which we share our joys and sorrows, giving and receiving the love that He knows we all need. This is the local church: people who are real and united by the Lord Jesus who loves us all.
