Church Membership

We want you to join us in the privileges and blessing of being part of this fellowship.

We believe Church membership provides blessings which are otherwise not open to us. In particular, the support of fellow members, the care of Pastors and hearing the Word of God being taught to us.

There is also the joy of worshiping together and the combining of our abilities in the work of building the church.

To those who want to commit to membership of the Church of the Nazarene three things are required. Firstly the demonstration of faith, secondly a willingness to avoid sinful actions and thirdly a commitment to meet together in fellowship on a regular basis.

These three sections can be best summed up by reference to three biblical verses.

  • In order to demonstrate faith Jesus stated 'We should Love the Lord our God with all our heart and soul and mind. And we should love our neighbour as ourselves.' Matthew 22v37-38

  • In order to abstain from evil the Apostle Paul directs us fix our thoughts on, 'Whatever is true, whatever is honourable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is gracious,and if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.' Philippians 4v8

  • 'Do not neglect to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encourage one another and all the more as you see the Day (of the Lord) drawing near.' Hebrews 10v25
