Membership
Becoming a member signifies your commitment to God and to this church.
If you are a regular attender at the church, and have been attending for at least six months, you are eligible to become a member. This means you are publicly committed as a member, and able to vote at Church meetings and serve on Church Council.
When you become a member you may indicate your denomination or you may choose to describe yourself as a 'Member of the Church in Great Notley.'
To become a member, you are invited to take part in a short Membership course run by Rev'd David and Rev'd Rachel to find out more about what this commitment entails.

the life and witness of the Church;
-
consider topics relevant to the local and wider witness of the church;
-
receive reports about the life of the church;
-
consider matters brought by the Trustees for church members to offer advice or guidance and to indicate support as required;
-
to help shape the life, work and vision of the church.
