We ask you to commit to membership for four reasons.

1. A Biblical Reason: Christ is committed to the church.
Christ loved the church and gave His life for it.

2. A Cultural Reason: It is an antidote to our society.
We live in an age where very few want to be committed to anything.

3. A Practical Reason: It defines who can be counted on.
Membership identifies our family.

4. A Personal Reason

: It produces spiritual growth.

We are accountable to one another for spiritual growth.

 

When a person accepts Christ as their personal Lord and Savior, thus becoming a new Christian, they may request membership by publicly professing their faith and asking for baptism.  If a person is a Christian but has not been baptized by immersion, they may request membership through baptism.

If a Christian is a member of another Baptist Church, they may request membership by asking that we accept them into our fellowship on promise of letter confirming their membership in a sister church. The Church Office contacts the sister church and requests the letter for transfer of membership.

If a person is a Christian but not a member of a Baptist church, they may request membership by giving testimony of having accepted Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior and having been previously baptized as a believer by immersion.
