Abstract

Pastors of active mid-sized congregations, even with full laity support for new member assimilation, may desire a personal yet programmed means for aiding the process both theologically and practically. Profile and survey data for 126 adult members received over a six-year period were used to study factors influencing their experience with the church, with the pastor, and their preparation for membership. A program of monthly pastoral correspondences for the member's first year was designed to encourage biblically based responses in two-way communication with the pastor. A management system was developed to enable effective discipling within the constraints of pastoral ministry.
