Welcome New Members

WHERE DO I GET STARTED?

STEP 1: New Members Classes

All New Members are required to complete eight one-hour classes prior to serving in a ministry capacity. These classes are held every Sunday morning excluding holiday weekends at 8:30am inside the Library Room, in addition to 6:00pm on Wednesday during Wednesday Night Bible Study. The classes are designed to provide each New Member with a foundational understanding of what we believe and to facilitate any questions. These classes may be taken in any order and there is no prerequisite for the classes. We encourage New Members to begin their classes immediately following their membership process. Upon completion of these classes, the New Member will receive (1) baptism, and/or (2) the Right Hand of Fellowship from our Pastor and Executive Board.
