Thoughts on faith and life at Friendship Church

Fall is here! The season of typhoons, cooler, windy weather, and yet still very humid.

It is also a new season here at FPC. There is a new set of students coming in, new people coming into Taiwan and deciding which church to be at, and a new group of potential members!

That’s right! We have another membership class going on currently, and it is exciting to report that we have 20 people who have joined the class.

In addition, we have changed the way that we do membership classes wanting to provide more opportunities for people to become members. How has the membership class changed?

1. We are offering the membership class 3 months in a row from September to November and later from March to May (instead of twice a year).

2. Each membership class will be divided into four 1-hour classes spread over 4 weeks (instead of 5 hours over two days).

3. If an attendee misses one class, they will have the opportunity to make up that class the following month (except in November and May, in which case they will have to wait for the next season).

Why do it this way? Originally, there were many who shared with us that they wanted to become members, but they could not because of schedule conflicts. So, we wanted to provide a way that people can more easily become members by providing more opportunities. Secondly, we were also hoping that the classes would be smaller so that we could get to know the new potential members better (which, hopefully, will happen once we get this new method going).

Lastly, it is because we at FPC believe that membership is extremely important. If a person has committed to FPC for the duration of their stay in Taiwan, then it is practically the same as becoming a member. For all these reasons, we encourage everyone who has committed to being at FPC, even if for as little as 3 months, to join the membership class and get involved in the life of the church. This is the best way to find accountability, to find community, and to grow in the Lord.

We hope you will join us! The next membership class starts on October 6.
