Chapter 1—Membership

Section 1—Active Membership

A. Qualification and Definition

A member of the Friends Church is a person—adult, young adult, or advanced adolescent who has made a credible profession of faith, and who either on that profession or by certificate from another church or meeting, has been admitted to full membership by the meeting.  An active member is one who shows an active interest in the local meeting and who participates regularly by attendance and support.  Such members make the meeting what it is by their ready participation in its activities and services, their genuine interest in its objectives, and their faithful and loyal material support in tithes and offerings. (See Organizational Philosophy.)
