How
to Become a Member of
Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church
Here at Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church we welcome newcomers with
open arms and invite each one to find a place to call "home,"
within the warm embrace of our "church family!"
New members
are received upon completion of the What We Believe class.
The What
We Believe class is designed for persons interested in exploring the nature
of Christian faith and/or membership in Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church.
The class session includes a review of core Christian Doctrine, key tenets
of Reformed Faith, an overview of Worship and the Sacraments, an in-depth
look at Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church's mission and ministry, an examination
of the meaning of faith and membership, and a history of Fifth Avenue
Presbyterian Church.
During
2008-2009, the What We Believe class
will be offered four times as a two-part course taught on two Sundays
from
12:30
pm -
3:00 pm. Participants
in the
What We Believe classes are welcomed into the life
of the congregation on the following Sunday that includes
a festive new members breakfast, a meeting with the Session and special
recognition during the worship service.
The What
We Believe classes are taught by Associate
Pastor Rev. Randolph L.C. Weber with all FAPC clergy participating.
To indicate interest in membership in Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church,
please speak to Rev. Weber at the church office 212.247.0490,
or fill out the attendance card in the pew checking off,
"I am considering membership in this church."
