Membership

Would you like to meet with Pastor Corwin about church membership or for more information about First Baptist Church of Winthrop Harbor? Fill out the form below and he will get in contact with you!

What do the membership information classes include?

Week 1: reading through and discussing Why Should I Join a Church? booklet. Each participant will receive a free copy to keep even after the membership classes are completed. At the very least, our goal is to point every Christian we come into contact with to formally commit to a local church for their own edification and the edification of the community of Believers.

Week 2 & 3: reading through and discussing the Baptist Faith & Message 2000 that all Southern Baptist churches adhere to regarding major doctrinal topics of the Christian faith and practice.

Week 4: reading through and discussing the church member covenant of FBCWH. This covenant lays out the biblical responsibilities that church members have to their local church as well as what they should expect from their local church members and leaders and what it means to be under the spiritual care of a local gathering of Believers.
