Members of the congregation participate at every level. Collectively and individually, we let the board and staff know what we think is most important to us. We envision how the church should act in our congregational and community life.

Members elect and may serve on the board. This leadership group interprets the vision of the congregation and sets the framework for the church's work.

Members serve as volunteers. Volunteers are essential in carrying out our mission. This is where the work of the church takes place. Policy Governance^® will clarify this role and help paid staff to do their work most effectively, alongside our many volunteers.

Finally, members are the key participants in many of our services and programs, from worship and small-group adult and child-enrichment activities to social events and community service.
