Becoming
a member
When you tell us that you want to become a member, we consider
you a member from that point on. If you are joining St. Stephen's from another
denomination, you may simply state that you wish to be a member and participate
fully in the life of this parish. If you are baptized, confirmed or received by
the bishop here you become a member. If you are already a baptized and/or confirmed
member of another Episcopal church we will be happy to ask your former church
for a letter of transfer. We are aware that many people who attend our services
come from other churches and denominations and we are delighted to have you consider
St. Stephen's your second church. For more information call or email Janet Allen
(288-2867, ext.305).
What
members do We expect that you will want to worship regularly, join with
others on their spiritual journey in the form of small
groups or Christian education classes, participate in the service of others
through a variety of outreach opportunities, and return to God a portion of the
blessings you have received during the Every
Member Canvass in the fall. |
