To Our Guests
You may have questions - we have some answers!
When do I join or make some other commitment to Christ? At the close of every worship service as a hymn is sung and the ministers stand facing the congregation, walk to one of them at this time. Tell him you want to join the church or make a decision for Christ.
What's next? You will be seated at the front, and the minister will introduce you to a facilitator. The facilitator will ask your name, address, etc. You will then share with the facilitator your decision. The facilitator is trained to help individuals understand their decisions, and this will be done in a counseling area after you have been presented by the pastor as a new member to the church family.
What about my children? When a child is ready to make a commitment to Christ they may come forward during the invitation. Out trained workers will deal sensitively with the child. Information about the next step will be shared with the parents. In the near future, the child will be asked to attend a New Christians' class.
The church office is available Monday - Thursday from 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM and
