There are four ways to
become a
member
of St. Paul's Lutheran Church:
-
TRANSFER:
If you are an active member of a Lutheran Church, you may join by
transferring your membership.
-
RE-AFFIRMATION
OF FAITH: If you have been confirmed in the Lutheran Church, but
have not been an active member, you may join by re-affirmation of faith.
-
ADULT
CONFIRMATION: If you have never been a member of the Lutheran
Church - and you wish to affiliate with St. Paul's, you are invited to
attend an ADULT INFORMATION CLASS which looks at the teachings of the
Bible and the Lutheran Church. After the class, you will be
given the opportunity to publicly affirm your faith - and become a
confirmed member of our congregation. Adult Information Classes are
offered on an individual basis with Pastor Lutz.
-
YOUTH
CONFIRMATION: After instruction in the 7th and 8th grades, young
men and women are prepared to be confirmed - and give a public affirmation
of their Christian faith.
