INTERESTED IN MEMBERSHIP
At Naples United Church of Christ, we are intentionally invitational in our desire to welcome all into the membership life of the church. We regularly host prospective new member luncheons for folks to get to know our ministers and to have their questions answered. We also host new member orientation sessions that include a tour of our campus buildings. In addition, we host a series of pot-luck dinners to help our new members connect with others in the church. For more information about these opportunities, be sure to check out our weekly worship bulletin!
