How May I Become A Member

     Perhaps you have been wondering about church membership for yourself. Persons who present themselves at the conclusion of a worship service may be welcomed into the church in one of five ways:

PROFESSION OF FAITH AND BAPTISM
     Any person who professes faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, and is baptized by immersion shall be received into the membership of United Baptist Church.

LETTER
     A believer who is in accord with the principles and practices of this church may be received by transfer of letter from any church which hold to regenerate membership (faith professed in Jesus Christ) and baptism by immersion.

STATEMENT OF EXPERIENCE
     A Believer who is in accord with the principles and practices of this church and who has been a member of a church which holds to regenerate membership and baptism by immersion but who, for sufficient reason, cannot present a letter from that church may be received upon statement of prior experience.

RESTORATION
     Any person may be restored to membership upon recommendation of the Church Council and the vote of the church.

SPECIAL CONSIDERATION
     Those for who membership is impossible by any of the foregoing means because of physical or mental limitations may be received as members upon the recommendation of the Church Council and the vote of the church.
