Steps Toward Joining SPUMC

• Attend worship regularly

• Contact Pastor Martha Meredith or call the Church Office 410-987-4700

• Attend a Connections Gathering (see the Current Events webpage for the date of the next Connections Gathering)

People Join in One of Three Categories:

1. Profession of Faith:

If you have never been baptized, and/or have never gone through the confirmation process as a youth, you will join by professing your faith in Jesus Christ for the first time.

 2. Reaffirmation of Faith:

If you have been baptized and confirmed, but do not have an active membership in a church, you will reaffirm your faith.

3. Transfer:

If you have been baptized, confirmed, and have an active membership in any Protestant church, we will request a transfer of membership from your previous church prior to joining SPUMC.

Connections Gatherings & Membership Meetings

Have you been connected?  Connections Gatherings are held several times a year.  A Connections Gathering is a time to meet and greet others, explore the mission and ministry of Severna Park United Methodist Church, discover more of the Christian faith (whether seeking faith, or already in the faith) and get to meet others.  The date and time of the next Connections Gathering is shown on our Current Events web page and in our weekly email newsletter.

Should you feel that God is leading you to join our church family, you are invited to attend a Membership  Meeting the following Sunday. At that time we will discuss your questions about The United Methodist Church and the meaning of church membership. You will be invited to become a member on a Sunday following the Membership Meeting. 

New Member Information Forms

After attending the Connections Gathering, you will have an opportunity to complete a New Member Information form. These forms will be available at the Connections Gathering, or can be filled out online.
