“About URC” and Church Membership

Attend "About URC". The class meets for 10 Sundays, and is offered each Spring and Fall. The class reviews basic Biblical teachings on what it means to be a Christian, the nature of revelation, sin and salvation, the sacraments, worship, and faithful communion with God. The materials also cover some of the theological distinctives of the Reformed faith and church policy. All are encouraged to pop in for a refresher on any given topic, and the class is required for those seeking Church Membership. If you’re considering taking the class for Church Membership, please fill out the form below so we can have the materials available. Contact Kevin Phipps for more info.

Check the Sunday Classes page on our website or church bulletin for the next available class and for upcoming topics.

A separate children’s profession of faith class is offered in the Spring for young people. Contact Dave Hinkley for information on the next youth class.

Meet with the elders. The elders are charged with oversight of church membership. They meet the second Tuesday of every month to receive new members, handle baptism requests, and pray. A few of the elders will meet with you to hear how you became a Christian, ask a few questions, and respond to any questions you may have. The meeting takes about 30 minutes. You can schedule a time to meet with the elders by contacting the church office.

Be publicly received before the congregation. Several times throughout the year we have membership Sundays where all new members are asked to introduce themselves and make membership vows before the congregation.
