At Idlewild, our desire is to have a church body full of committed, devoted members. Attracting church attendees is one thing, but having committed, devoted members helps make a healthy church.
If you are looking for a church to call your own and are willing to minister to others while being ministered to, join us!

At the end of each worship service a song is sung and the pastors stand at the heads of the aisles facing the congregation. This is known as the "invitation." Simply step into the aisle and walk up to one of the pastors at that time. Tell the pastor you want to join the church and he will direct you from there.Or apply for membership online here .
Spiritual growth is not an event it’s a process.
Christian Essentials is a series of classes for people who want to grow closer
in a relationship with Jesus Christ. New believers or those who want to better
grasp the essentials of Christianity will benefit alike. The classes are
designed to present a new essential each week, and then rotate back to the
first lesson, making it possible for you to begin the classes immediately
without waiting. Subjects covered include; Faith, God’s Word, Hearing God,
Prayer & Fasting, Spiritual Gifts, Sharing Your Faith, Giving, and
Achieving Community through Small Groups. Come join us any Sunday at 9:30am and
let’s take our faith to the next level.
Question: What do I do after I have completed the Membership 101 class?
Answer:
Attend the weekly worship services (Sundays & Wednesdays).
Find and join a Bible Fellowship class (Sunday mornings).
Register for a LifeChange University course (no prerequisites required!)
If you have not already done so, apply for church membership by walking down the aisle after any service during the invitation time.
Question: Does completing Membership 101 automatically make me an Idlewild church member?
Answer:
No. Completion of 101 is one of the "A-B-C’s". Remember, you must have accepted Christ as your personal Savior, been baptized by immersion after you were saved, and also completed the 101 class. After you have done all three of these and formally applied for membership (by walking forward during the invitation time at the close of any worship service or apply for
membership online), you will be considered a member.
