Purpose

The class is designed to give prospective members information about our church’s history, beliefs, and practices. We welcome questions and comments. Current members have expressed appreciation for the insight they gained during the course.

Note—there is no obligation or expectation for all those who attend to become members. The purpose is simply to help you explore the Faith and make an informed decision about where to worship and serve. 

topics covered:

• The meaning and importance of church membership

• Christian fundamentals and Reformed distinctives

• History of this local church and the URCNA

• Articles of Church Order (i.e., principles and practices of our Federation).
