Steps to becoming a member

Keck Avenue Baptist Church is a body of believers united by our desire to follow Jesus Christ and committed to fulfilling the purposes set forth in our Mission Statement. If you desire to join with us and will be supportive of the beliefs, fellowship, and mission of our church, we warmly invite you to become a member. Here are two simple steps to becoming a member:

Step One

Request a prospective members packet which explains what we believe and teaches what we expect of members and what they can expect of us. After reading the packet, the pastor would like to meet with you and answer any questions.

Step Two

Express your desire for membership through one of the following means:

By Profession of Faith: If you will receive Jesus Christ as your personal Savior and Lord and follow Him in baptism by immersion, we will welcome you into our fellowship.

By transfer of membership from another Baptist Church: As a Baptist whose membership is elsewhere, should God direct you here we will be pleased to welcome you into our church family. We will take care of the appropriate details for the transfering of your membership. You need only to present yourself for membership.

By Statement of Faith: If you know in your heart that you have a saving relationship with God through Jesus Christ and desire to be a member of Keck Avenue Baptist Church, we will be happy to receive you. If you were once a member of another Baptist church or your records are not available, we will accept you upon your statement of these conditions.

While we respect the nuances of other denominations, Keck Avenue Baptist Church is destinctly Southern Baptist. If your church membership is currently in another denomination and you have not been baptized by immersion as a testimony of your salvation, we would expect you to be baptized before being added to our church family.
