Church membership and (re)baptism

I'll preface this by saying I will ask my pastor about this as well, but curious if this is a church specific question or if there are other guidelines (MCUSA if it matters).

In the future I plan on both membership and baptism (I was baptized Catholic as a toddler). But which comes first? Are you baptized as Anabaptist prior to becoming a church member, or does membership "allow" you a baptism by that church? Does the order even matter?
