You are encouraged to speak to the pastor or one of the elders about your decision to join First Presbyterian Church. They are available to talk with you following any worship service or you may wish to call them by phone during the week. There are three ways to become a member of First Presbyterian Church.
* Profession of Faith
* Reaffirmation of Faith in Jesus Christ
* Transfer of Membership From Another Church
PROFESSION OF FAITH
One 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 as Lord are the visible signs of entrance into the active membership of the church.
REAFFIRMATION OF FAITH
It is sometimes the case that persons who previously made a profession of faith and became active members in a particular church are unable to secure a certificate of transfer or other evidence of church membership. After instruction and examination by the session, these persons shall reaffirm publicly their profession of faith and their acceptance of responsibility in the life of the church.
TRANSFER OF MEMBERSHIP
If you are active in another Christian church, you may join First Presbyterian by transferring your letter.
