Membership Information If you are searching for a church home, we want you to know that we welcome and desire your membership in Ginter Park United Methodist Church.  You may join in one of several ways:   By Profession of Faith and Baptism If you are not now a baptized Christian, you are invited to accept the influence of Christ on your life and profess Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior.  Our pastor would be happy to discuss the meaning of salvation and baptism with you in your home or at the church at your convenience. By Transfer from another United Methodist Church It is not necessary for you to write your former church for a letter of membership. Our church will handle the details of transfer for you. By Transfer from another Christian Denomination The process is very much like the one above. Since you are already baptized and confirmed, these steps will not be repeated. You will be asked to take the vow made by all persons entering our congregation to support and uphold the United Methodist Church “by your prayers, your presence, your gifts and your service.” How to “Join” without “Joining” — Affiliate If you are a United Methodist whose membership is in another city or state and you wish to retain that membership in your “home” church, you can become an Affiliate Member of Ginter Park. This grants you pastoral oversight, fellowship and full participation (including the holding of church offices) in Ginter Park. We will write your “home” church to inform them of your Affiliate status at Ginter Park UMC. You may also become an affiliate member if you are a member of another denomination.   No matter which method fits your needs, to initiate the process,  call the church office at 262-8651 or click here.
