DISCIPLESHIP SEMINAR REVIEW SIXTH PLEDGE I Will Treasure Church Membership as A Gift: I am a church member. This membership is a gift. When I received the free gift of salvation through Jesus Christ, I became a part of the body of Christ, which is the church. And now I am humbled and honored to serve and to love others in our church. I pray that I will never take my membership for granted, but see it as a gift and an opportunity to serve others and to be a part of something so much greater than any one person or member.
