How to join the First United Methodist Church of Arlington Heights family.
Come to the front of the Sanctuary at the start of the closing hymn
OR
Visit with one of the pastors after worship.
Ways to join our church:
Join by transfer from another United Methodist Church.
You may transfer from another United Methodist Church anytime. The church staff will handle all the details of your transfer.
Join by vow from another denomination.
We accept your baptism in another denomination of Christian faith and ask you to vow to uphold our church and the congregation’s ministry with your prayers, your presence, your gifts, your service, and your witness.
Join by profession of faith.
For a young person or an adult who has been baptized but never officially joined a church, you may join today by publicly reaffirming your baptismal vows before the congregation.
Baptism and profession of faith.
Baptism is the symbol of God’s grace through Jesus Christ. If you were not baptized as a child, and would like to be baptized, please visit with one of our pastors.
You are encouraged to check out United Methodism 101, an online introduction to the United Methodist Church, found at www.umcom.org in the "Living the Faith" section.
