The mission of the NMOC is to assist or help new members to identify their spiritual gifts and talents and find their place in the vibrant life of the church through its ministries fulfilling the mandate and mission of the church. New members are required to attend four (4) orientation sessions and receive instruction in the areas of Stewardship of Time, Talent and Treasure; and candidates for baptism are instructed in an abbreviated presentation of Christian belief, doctrine and practice before receiving the Right Hand of Fellowship by the Pastor, Officers and members of the congregation giving them all rights and privileges of membership. After completion of the process, a Fellowship Repast is conducted after a Sunday Morning Worship Service and the Deacon Watch Care Ministry and Discipleship Training Director continues to keep in touch with new members.
