Membership at Storm Lake United Methodist Church
If you are a member of another United Methodist Church then your membership can be transferred (see below). Or if you are a member of another faith background you can transfer by Profession of Faith. This member is a baptized person who has come into membership in The United Methodist Church by Profession of Faith. Professing membership is an expression of our baptismal covenant in which we profess our faith in God and declare our desire to live our lives as disciples of Jesus Christ in the United Methodist faith. Please call the office (732-5458) to schedule a time to talk with our pastor.
Profession of Faith
Those beyond confirmation age can join the United Methodist church by "Profession of Faith". This is a time to verbally share with the church and yourself that you believe in God and repent of your sins. You can be of no-faith background or another faith belief to share in the membership of the United Methodist Church.

Baptism
This ceremony marks the beginning of a journey in the nurturing fellowship of a caring, learning, worshiping, and serving congregation. The baptism of children and their inclusion in the church, is a vivid and compelling witness to grace, before they can respond with their own confirmation of faith. One can receive Christian baptism as an infant, youth or adult. Not yet baptized? Sacrament of Baptism can take place during time of Profession of Faith confession or on its own. Pastor will talk with those receiving baptism prior to the confirmed event. Please fill out the baptism form located below.

Membership Transfer
Have you moved? Or are attending a new place of worship? If you are no longer an active member of the Storm Lake United Methodist Church please prayerfully think about your membership vows. Inactive members are those not participating in worship or other activities and are not supporting the budget. Perhaps we can help you renew your faith or assist you with transferring* your membership to a church you are active with.
