Membership

We wish everyone would desire to be a part of our family and a member at Immanuel.  With our size congregation it's easy for people to get lost or not feel a part of our ministry.  Therefore becoming a member of Immanuel takes some time and involves some steps that helps the new person get to know people and become involved. 

The requirements for becoming a member of Immanuel:

• Visit Immanuel's worship services and establish a steady pattern of worship   
  
• Get to know or review what the Bible says and learn what Immanuel and the WELS believe.  This is accomplished by an individual or group Bible class, or even a take-home Bible Information Course.  (contact our pastor to see what is currently being offered) 
  
• Once Immanuel's teachings and practices are known, a person decides if they still wish to proceed with membership, and talks to our pastor. 
  
• A letter is sent by Immanuel to any current church that considers the person under their spiritual to inform them of the membership change. 
  
• New members are then officially welcomed at a worship service and are encourage to remain faithful to God's Word.
