New Member/Inquirer Classes

 Thinking about joining Woods?

Dear Prospective New Member and Friend of Woods!

We feel privileged and blessed that you are considering membership at Woods.  We know you have given much thought to this decision – one that is very important to your faith life, as it impacts you and your family in such significant ways. 

We have recently revamped our membership process hoping that the new schedule will allow you to learn and experience the many aspects of Woods Church in which you participate as a disciple of Jesus Christ. During your first year as a member at Woods, we will offer and guide you to several opportunities in which you may discern and enrich your spiritual growth.

Our next series of New Members’ Classes will begin with a Dessert Social on Monday, March 22, at 7:00 pm at the home of Rev. Nancy Lincoln Reynolds. We will offer two one hour classes, on Sundays April 11 and 18 from 9:30-10:30 am or one two hour class on Tuesday, April 13 from 7:00-9:00 pm . You may attend either the Tuesday night class or both Sunday classes. These classes will focus on becoming Disciples of Christ and discussions will focus on worship, belonging, service, spiritual growth and mission. On Wednesday, April 21 , at 6:00 pm, New Members and Elders will meet in Fellowship Hall for dinner. You will be welcomed into the fellowship of Woods on Sunday April 25, at the 9:30 or 11:00 worship service. 

It is our hope that the new member process will give you the information and inspiration you need in order to reach a commitment to discipleship with us at Woods. We want your joining Woods to be about your commitment to Christ and his ministry, and hope that this series of classes will facilitate your reaching that commitment. Please know that, until then, you are always welcome to be involved in any and all ministries at Woods.

Again, we are pleased that you have selected Woods, and hope that it will soon become your church home and community of faith.

God’s Blessings and Peace,

Nancy Lincoln Reynolds
