The Great Outdoors Community Church consists of members and associate members.
Full Members are individuals who make our church their home church and are able to vote at the annual and other special meetings and fill elected Board positions.
Associate Members retain their membership in other churches, and hold membership in our church as well.
Because we come from many different denominations, backgrounds, locations, theological teaching, and traditions, our church has two unifying principles which each person affirms in order to become a member.
- Jesus Christ, God-man, died for our sins, was raised from the dead, and is our personal Savior.
- The Bible is the inspired and inerrant Word of God and the authority for our faith and practice. Over the Narthex doors as one enters the sanctuary are the words which summarize the heart of our faith: "Jesus Christ, Crucified, Risen, Returning."
Qualifications for Membership:
- The person has accepted Jesus Christ as personal Savior and Lord, and acknowledges the Bible as God’s true and Inspired Word.
- He/she shall be aware of and abide by the By-Laws of our church.
- He/she shall further the work of the church through active interest, participation- and financial support.
- He/she has the right to vote on issues presented at meetings.
There is always a warm and friendly group of people full of joy who will be delighted to greet you and welcome you as a fellow worshipper. They will encourage you to become involved, and be part of our church family. The Great Outdoors Community Church is certainly unique, and The Great Outdoors RV and Golf Resort is a wonderful place for all of this to come together. Praise the Lord! He has blessed His people here and provided a beautiful place of worship for those who come through our doors.
We welcome everyone to come and worship with us and to become involved in our various activities. Those wishing to become members or associate members (part-time members here while being members in another church) are invited to speak to the pastor. It is the goal of this church to worship Christ, study His Word, and spread the gospel to everyone in the area and in the world. This is the reason that mission is a major goal of Great Outdoors Community Church.
