In 2014 Thrasher has received 44 new members, so far. This is in 42
weeks. More than one new member per week. Can we reach a goal of
52 new members by baptism or profession or transfer in 2014? We have
baptized 10 children this year, and we have received 34 adults who
either transferred their membership or professed for the first time their
faith in Jesus Christ as Lord.
As of this week we have 1,279 “Professing Members” and 140
“Baptized Members.” If you have questions about church membership,
please see Pastor B. or Pastor Jae.
