By Profession of Faith: If you wish to receive Jesus
Christ as your Lord and personal Savior
and
will follow Him in obedient baptism, you may join by profession of faith.
By Letter: If you are presently a member of a Baptist Church elsewhere
and feel led by God to join with our church family, you may join by transferring
you membership via a letter of recommendation from your former church. Present
yourself for membership and our clerk will obtain the letter of transfer.
By Statement: If you were once a Baptist, but not currently a member of a
Baptist Church, or if your former Baptist Church is no longer in existence, join
by stating this fact. Your baptism in a church of like faith and order is
enough.
By Baptism: If you are saved, but have not been scripturally baptized by
immersion, present yourself for baptism.
From a Non-Baptist Background: If under the leadership of the Holy Spirit
you wish to make this church your church, you may become a candidate for
membership. You will be asked to tell
of
your personal acceptance of Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord of your life. Baptism
by
immersion
by an evangelical body will be acceptable. If you have not been baptized by
immersion following your commitment to follow Christ you will need to be
baptized by immersion to be received in to membership in the church family. The
pastor will be glad to discuss this with you and
answer any questions concerning this process for membership.
Bible Study/Sunday School: You may become a member of a Bible Study class
(group) by simply attending and expressing a desire to join the group. Church
membership is not a prerequisite for attending or membership in a Sunday
School/Bible Study class.
