HOW TO JOIN THE CHURCH
Step 1
At the end of the church service, during the invitation time, come down to the front of the auditorium.
Step 2
Tell the Pastor that you are wanting to join the church by one of the following ways.
- By Letter: The last church of which you were a member was Baptist.
- By Statement: The last church of which you were a member was a Bible church or a non-denominational church.
- By Baptism: You are professing faith, and/or have never been baptized in a Baptist, Bible, or non-denominational church.
Step 3
When available, attend a 2 & 1/2 hour church membership class, in which we will go over what it means to be a member of FBC Rockwall and answer any question you might have. Then, if necessary, proceed forth in baptism.
We believe in the power of prayer
