Membership and Baptism
A Simple Path
Grace has a simple path to membership and baptism. If you are ready to do either or both of these, register to attend the appropriate classes described below.
"Identifying with Jesus" by Pastor Zach Rogers
Pastor Zach explains the sacraments and membership in this sermon from March 10, 2024.
Membership Classes
Discover Grace is now identified as our membership class for adults. Participants in this 3-1/2 hour class will learn the theology taught at Grace (Jesus, the Bible, sin, salvation, grace, Holy Spirit, the church, discipline, spiritual gifts, baptism, Lord's Supper), our denominational and church practices and leadership structure, and membership privileges and responsibilities. Attending the class will lead to church membership.
Discover Grace for Teens. Our Senior and Junior High Sunday schools periodically hold membership classes during the Sunday school hour. We provide clear teaching on baptism, the Lord’s Supper, and membership. Contact John Vanne for the dates of the next class.
Children's Membership Class is designed for children in 3rd through 6th grade. Participants in this class will learn the gospel of salvation using a six-part outline from "Kids' Evangelism Explosion," write and deliver a personal testimony of salvation, understand the meaning of the Lord's Supper and how to prepare for and participate in it, and understand the privileges and responsibilities of church membership. One parent or guardian must participate with the child in the class in order to reinforce the learning between classes.

Baptism
Baptism is a joyful step of obedience and faith, marking our union with Christ and our inclusion in the covenant community of the church.
We welcome:
Infant baptism (by covenant) for children of believing parents.
Believer’s baptism (by profession of faith) for those personally confessing faith in Jesus Christ.
If you are interested in baptism for yourself or your child, please register using the link below. A pastor will follow up with you to discuss your baptism and arrange for it to take place during a scheduled Sunday service.
For those who are not yet members of the church, we will also share next steps for membership as part of this process.
