Anyone and everyone is welcome to join us at King's Cross. But we recognize that for making certain decisions and developing as a church, it is good to know who is with us and who is just visiting. So we have membership to help us better lead and serve with our body.

If you are interested in becoming a member, here are the simple steps!

1). Listen to these Membership Class Podcasts. You can also search "King's Cross Lyons Membership Class" on Spotify or Apple Podcasts!

2). Fill out our Membership Application. Click on the link below to download the application. Once you are done, return it to caleb@kingscrosslyons.org.

3). Have a Membership Conversation. Once Caleb receives your Membership Application, he or one of our other Elders will reach out to you to have a brief membership conversation so that we can hear your story and get to know you more. Once your membership conversation is completed, the Elders will discuss your application and decide whether to recommend you for membership at our next member meeting.

Our member budget discussion will be Sunday September 13th at 12:30 PM immediately following our second service. Our annual budget member meeting will be on Sunday September 27th at 12:30 PM immediately following our second service. All our members are welcome to join us for a potluck lunch to start each meeting. So please bring a dish to share. The proposed budget for October 2026-September 2027 and by-law changes can be found below.

The two proposed by-law changes for the upcoming member meeting are:

1) Elder terms of service - all staff pastors will be perpetual elders. Previously, only the lead pastor has served as a perpetual elder. Since we see elders and pastors as synonymous terms, the elders found it appropriate that any staff pastor sharing in these duties continue as a perpetual elder.

2) Pastor search and selection - with the above change, all new pastors would need to be affirmed by the members in the same manner as an Elder currently does. This is a change that previously allowed for all staff hirings to be done by the eldership team, outside of the lead pastor position.
