Why Join CDP?

1.  Why join CDP?

We need people who will commit themselves to supporting the ongoing work of the Christian Democratic Party, and be involved in the new directions in which we are heading.  We need more MPs holding the balance of power in the NSW Parliament in the years ahead.  Then, as now, when Legislation is introduced into Parliament, it will be evaluated from a Christian perspective also.  Do you still need convincing?

2.  Ten Good Reasons to Join CDP

1. You will be committing yourself to be active in the process of government, and will be prayerfully and practically supporting the only Christian Political Party which represents the views of the Christian Churches (and people who espouse Christian values) in Parliament.

2. You will immediately be connected to the inside of CDP; able to access a range benefits not available to non-members and have access to a Secure Internet Site for Members only.

3. You will be more informed about the hard work that Rev Fred Nile and his team are doing on behalf of the Christian community in Parliament.  You will receive regular publications, emails and letters from CDP to keep you fully informed of issues coming before Parliament, and legislation which may affect you and the wider community.

4. You can be actively involved in having your say, through people connected via the Internet, and who meet at various locations throughout the year.

5. You will help CDP to grow its support base.

6. You will help to fund proper professional research and polling of community attitudes, and will enable proper consultation among our churches on issues in Parliament.

7. You will be assisting the State Office with its administration and employment expenses.

8. You will be able to join your local CDP Branch and help resource our staff to assist in the establishment of new Branches across the State. (See elsewhere on this website or contact the CDP office for details - phone (02) 9746 5817)

9. You will assist CDP to mount effective Publicity Campaigns without the distraction of trying to raise money in a very short time.

10. Your financial support will ensure the future of the Christian Democratic Party.

3.   What happens next?

If you become a Member of CDP, or renew your Membership, you may elect to contribute your dues as a small amount each month from your Credit Card or Bank Account to go directly into the NSW State CDP account until you advise to the contrary.  If you prefer to be a Supporter of CDP without becoming a member, you may also contribute a set amount, determined by you, from your account to the CDP account.

Membership fees (or pledges of on-going financial support) are vital for CDP to enable the proper consultation among our churches, professional research and polling of community attitudes, the employment of staff to build CDP and support Branches in all Electorates.

The CDP Membership form is available from the CDP Head Office. The Membership (and pledges for on-going financial support) form is available on this page (at top right hand side). The normal monthly membership fee is currently $10 (Single) and $15 (Couple).  Please contact the office for details  (see point 8 above).
