HAVE YOU CONSIDERED “MEMBERSHIP” WITH THE WASHINGTON FREE METHODIST CHURCH?
Membership is a “Covenant Commitment” to protect, to share, to serve, and to support one another. Membership in the Church is a high privilege and responsibility. We believe the Covenant required of members is consistent with the teaching of the written Word of God. The biblical requirements of membership are repentance, faith, and baptism. We invite you to take the next step in membership by designating your desire on your Connection Card or contacting Pastor Adam.

FOUNDATIONS DAY CARE
Now that our Foundations Day Care is open, there are several changes to our facility throughout the week. West entry doors will always be locked until 5:00 p.m. This is for the safety of our day care children. The double doors into the Fellowship Hall will also be locked during this time. When you come to the church, please remember to enter the south entrance and check in at the church office.
Also, when using the Fellowship Hall for weekend or evening events, you will need to make arrangements to enter through the west door. You are responsible for setting up the room, as you found it, including daycare tables and chairs, and making sure the west doors are securely locked when leaving. Use of the room on weekends and evenings will require making sure the floors are clean and all items brought in for your event are removed and trash taken to the dumpster before you leave.
