• Once a Guest Member has fulfilled the 6 in 6 rule, they must attend 12 Sunday school or worship events within the 12 months following the end of their six month validation period in order to keep their memberships at the CLC. This 12 month cycle will continue annually.
  
• The validation period need only be satisfied once.
  
• If a current or new Guest Member does not meet the 6 in 6 or 12 in 12 rule, he/she may opt to purchase a Program Membership(see below).
  
• Those not meeting the 6 in 6 or 12 in 12 rule will lose their Covenant membership to the CLC and must purchase a membership to continue usage.
  
• If all criteria is met, the life-time fee for a Guest Membership is $5.00 with a maximum of $20.00 per immediate household family.
