Membership is important for several reasons. First, only members can be eligible for formal church leadership (board, trustee, etc). Secondly, only members can vote on the selection of our Lead Pastor and on any changes to our Constitution and By-Laws.
Finally, becoming a member signifies a voluntary, but non-binding, commitment to our faith community.
To become a member at The Tabernacle, we ask that you have been attending for at least 6 months, attend MERGE and submit an application. You can fill out an online app or turn in a paper version.

F.A.Q.
MERGE: THE ON-RAMP TO MEMBERSHIP AT THE TABERNACLE
Join us for MERGE!
MERGE is an on-ramp for people who want to get connected to the vision, mission and direction of The Tabernacle. It is an opportunity to meet the staff, hear our story and learn our DNA.
MERGE isn't a class. It features outstanding food and a laid-back, conversational atmosphere with new friends, which is led by the pastoral staff. MERGE is a requirement for those seeking to become members at The Tabernacle, but not exclusively for those membership candidates. There is no pressure to join the church for those who attend.
If you are interested in attending MERGE, please email: buckleyoffice@thetabchurch.com
