Becoming a Member
If the Bible is the cornerstone of our church, then membership is the cement that holds us all together. Both Christ and Paul pointed us toward membership for our encouragement, our protection, and our instruction. We seek to carry out this vision through our four-step process by which to join The Village Church Denton.
Courses are offered periodically through the year and weekly on Sundays. The schedule of those classes is here. Upon completion, those who attended all four classes are able but not obligated to sign up for a membership interview, the second step of the membership process.

The Four Step Membership Process
Baptism
Baptism is intended only for those who have professed faith in Jesus Christ and can give sufficient testimony to the basics of Christian beliefs. We baptize by immersion because it is not only the original significance of the word but also best symbolizes the reality to which baptism points—our death and resurrection in Christ.
If you have not been baptized following salvation, we ask you to take this step before becoming a Covenant Member.
