associate Membership

Even though you're away from your home church, you're not away from your covering.

Welcome to Associate Membership at New Hope Ministries. This membership is for individuals who are part of another CME congregation but currently living in our area—whether for school, work, family, or personal reasons—and who want to remain spiritually engaged while away from home.

You are still connected to your home church, but you are fully embraced here. While your official membership remains with your original congregation, you are welcomed to:

• Participate in worship, Bible study, and fellowship 
• Receive pastoral care and support 
• Serve in non-voting, nonelective roles 
• Stay rooted and growing in this temporary season
   

We honor the spiritual continuity you’re committed to. We’re not a substitute—we’re a sanctuary along your journey.

“For wherever you go, I will go… your people shall be my people, and your God, my God.” – Ruth 1:16
 

If you're ready to associate with us during your time here, simply complete the short form below so we can welcome you properly and notify your home pastor.

Pastor K. M. Bailey-Emeh
