Why should I become a member?

Though official membership is not technically a biblical matter, belonging to a local group of like-minded beilvers in Jesus is biblical. Membership is a way of committing to your church community. You are saying, “I’m part of this family. I want to support this family. I want to be part of something bigger than me. I'm committing to this local family of God.”

 

What are the "benefits" to becoming a member?

In addition to enjoying the care and leadership that we want to give to everyone who attends Seacoast, members enjoy a greater level of involvement with the leadership.  Members can also serve in leadership and in different capacities than non-members. When an official vote is required, your vote is counted as a member. Attendee votes are advisory.

 

How long will I be considered a member?

Until you tell us you are moving, joining another church, or ask to be removed from our membership roles. 

 

Is membership required for serving or leading at Seacoast?

Many serving roles do not require you to be a member though most leadership roles do require membership.

 

What is expected of members?

To participate and serve in the local church community in your area of gifting or passion, to financially support the ministry of Seacoast, and to represent Christ where you live and work. Members are expected to support the teaching positions of the church and when differences occur, members are asked to pursue unity with love and respect for one another. 

 

What happens if I move or join another church?

We encourage you to find a local church family where you can thrive.
