This project explores the formation of a 'missional' identity among new members. Through a four-week Bible study exploring missional themes and a survey, participants in the study were asked to reflect on how their involvement in the life of the congregation shaped their perceptions. Three factors emerged as key in shaping a new member's identity: (1) the congregation's own publicly stated commitments and practices; (2) the strong and visible presence within the congregation of veteran members who visibly embody and model the life of Christian discipleship; and (3) participation in corporate worship, particularly the sacraments.
