[...]
sed -n /membership/=
Or if you want to stop at the first matching line:
sed -n '/membership/{=;q;}'

| Hi,
You can achieve with the below oiptions:
cat -n <filename>|grep "Membership"
This will give you the line number and the line text.
Below is the syntax to get only the line number:
cat -n <filename>|grep "Membership"|awk '{print $1}'

UUOC:
grep -n "Membership" file
or
awk '/Membership/{print NR":"$1; exit}'
if you want to stop at the first match.

UUOC and UUOG (useless use of grep):
awk '/Membership/{print NR}'
or
awk '/Membership/{print NR; exit}'
if you want to stop at the first match.

Another non-mainstreaming solution:
nl FILENAME | grep Membership
