WHAT IS A CHURCH MEMBER?

BECOMING A PART OF THE BCA FAMILY
At the close each Sunday morning service, we provide an opportunity for those who would like to become a part of the BCA family to come to the front and speak with the pastor. He can answer any questions you may have about our church or what it means to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

Our church accepts people for membership in the following ways:

By salvation and Baptism
Those individuals who are inviting Christ into their life to forgive them of their sin and take control of their life today, and who wish to be baptized as a symbol of their acceptance of Christ.

By baptism
Those individuals who have previously accepted Jesus as Lord and Savior, but have not yet been Scripturally baptized by immersion and wish to be baptized as a symbol of their acceptance of Christ.

By transfer of membership
Those individuals who are members of another Baptist church of like faith and belief.

By statement of faith
Those individuals whoa re members of a church of like faith and belief and have been Scripturally baptized by immersion.

If you have any questions about any of these methods or terms, our pastor would be happy to discuss it with you.
