Membership Commitment

"We recognize Community Mennonite Fellowship as the part of Christ's body, the Church, to which God has joined us.

"As members of this Fellowship, we confess that:
- Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior; we affirm this trust in Christ by submitting to baptism (Romans 10:9,10; Acts 2:38; 1 Peter 3:21)
- the Scriptures are the inspired Word of God and authoritative guide for our lives (2 Timothy 3:15-17; 2 Peter 1:20,21)
- all who belong to Christ belong to each other and need each other. (Romans 12:4,5; 1 Corinthians 12:12-27; Ephesians 4:15,16)
"And as God gives grace and opportunity, we will strive to:
- meet with each other on a regular basis, and encourage one another (Acts 2:42,46,47; Hebrews 10:24,25)
- share our resources with each other (Acts 2:44,45; Galatians 6:10; 1 John 3:16,17)
- give and receive counsel, and pray for each other (Galatians 6:1,2; Matthew 18:15-20; Hebrews 3:12,13; Ephesians 6:18,19)
- testify to the Good News of what God has done in Christ, and cultivate a lifestyle based on love." (Romans 10:14; 1 Thessalonians 1:8-10; Romans 13:8)
