Membership Covenant Examples


It is common in some churches to ask members to sign a membership covenant. This allows the church to clarify the expectations it has for each of its members. Many who take the responsibilities of membership very seriously may even have an annual "covenant renewal Sunday" where members are asked to re-sign the covenant as a reminder of the commitment they are making to their faith community. I have created this post in order to pool a variety of covenant examples from different churches of different sizes and denominations. Feel free to send me other examples to add to the list.

Sample 1 - Expectations of members and the church.

Sample 2 - Built around values.

Sample 3 - Peacemakers version.

Sample 4 - Membership and code of ethics.

Sample 5 - The qualities of a member.

Sample 6 - Gospel Coalition Blog Sample

Samples 7-9 - NAMB provides a series of examples here.

Sample 10 - 9 Marks shares their covenant here.
