Membership

WELCOME!            


We thank you for your interest in the Trinitarian Congregational Parish of Castine, United Church of Christ.  This publication is part of a series of booklets designed to help you understand the history, structure, and mission of our church, and to give you some information on how the church functions.

We are providing this resource for our friends and members for several reasons, but one reason stands out as important in our Christian lives together.  The fact is, we come together from diverse faith backgrounds and experiences.  Unlike previous generations, which may have tended to live their lives in one community and perhaps one church, we seem to be a people who come from away, bringing to this place religious beliefs and practices that were learned and formed in other places and other churches, from a wide variety of denominations and convictions.  In many ways, that diversity gives us a richness in the expression of our faith during our walk together in this place.  But in other ways, it can cause a certain amount of confusion, as we compare the practices and traditions of this church with those in churches we attended in other places and parts of our lives.

The information in this series of booklets assumes that the reader is considering membership in the church.  As such, the booklets are set up in four sections or sessions, corresponding to meetings that we hold as part of the member reception process.  You can download our membership books right here (click on the links below)!
