Membership
How do I become a member?
“A person becomes an active member of the church through faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and acceptance
of his lordship in all of life. Baptism and a public profession of faith in Jesus Christ are the visible signs of
entrance into active church membership.”
– Book of Order, Presbyterian Church (USA).
Baptized children of members are considered “baptized members” of the church and may partake of the
sacrament of communion at the guidance and discretion of their parents. Children normally enter into active
membership after completing confirmation class and making their profession of faith. They are also baptized
at that time if they have not been previously.
Normally, parents are advised to enroll their child in confirmation class no earlier than the eighth grade.
Parents are encouraged to discuss their child’s readiness for confirmation and any exceptions to standard
procedure with the pastor.

You may become a member by one of the following ways:
(1) By profession of faith; (If you have never been a member of any Christian church before and have
never been baptized, you will be instructed in the meaning of baptism and baptized when you join the
church.)
(2) By reaffirmation of faith in Jesus Christ; (When you have previously made a profession of faith in
another Christian church, but you have no certificate of membership to transfer.)
(3) By certificate of transfer from another Christian church.
Most people become members after attending Learning About Membership and Presbyterianism
(LAMP) Classes that are scheduled throughout the year. Materials describing and explaining the
ministry and mission of the church are distributed. Those seeking to join the church then meet with
the Session (governing board) of the church to be accepted into active membership. New members
are received into the congregation publicly in a brief ceremony during a Sunday morning worship
service.
