I'm A New Member

Today I went to church and decided to join and become a new member. At first I was nervous seeing how I'm already an active member at my church back at home and I've been at that church since I was four so I dont know anything else. But at Union here in Muncie you can become a member at their church and still be a member at you're home church if you're a college student. I was very happy to hear that because I didnt feel like a visitor anymore I felt as if I belong there and I wanted to make it official. They give us the benefits of being a member without all of the member expectations because we are college students and we will go home and return to our original churches and they are fine with that. They just want to be our church home away from home. I told my mother and she was excited to hear that I joined. She had concerns as well as I when she brought up how I was going to explain this to my pastor back at home but she feels confident that he will be proud of me. I hope so because I dont love him any less just because I joined another church. Overall I feel great about my decision. Next Stop new members class
