ABOUT MEMBERSHIP
We invite all people into membership who:
- Have accepted Jesus Christ as Savior and accept His teachings as revealed in the Gospels interpreted by faith through the guidance of the Holy Spirit;
- Offer themselves to God in personal commitment toward the realization of God’s Commandments that we love God with all our mind, body and spirit, and that we love our neighbor as ourselves;
- Agree to covenant together with other FBC members to become actively involved in the life of the church through a grateful sharing of our time, talent and treasures – and by so doing fulfill the mission of Christ.
Since we are a Baptist church, we believe that all members should follow the biblical example of baptism by immersion.
