If you have been worshiping with us for
awhile, or even if you have not, and find that you are
interested in pursuing membership in our church community, please see
Father Keene who will help direct you in the faith of the Church
and determine by which method you may become a member.
Membership at the Church of
the Advent can happen one of several ways:
- If you are
already Episcopalian, you can simply have your membership
transferred to the Church of the Advent by contacting your
current parish and requesting a transfer. They will send
us a "Letter of Transfer" which will officially place you on the
membership rolls of the COA.
-
If you are Roman Catholic and
wish to become a member of The Episcopal Church, our bishop will
come and receive you into the Church and the COA.
-
If you are a baptized member
of another Christian tradition, there is an educational
process toward membership in The Episcopal Church which begins
each Fall. At the completion of this education our bishop
will come and confirm and receive you into the Church and the
COA.
-
If you are not baptized and
wish to seek the sacrament of baptism, you will be instructed in
the faith and baptized; at the moment of your baptism you
automatically become a member of The Episcopal Church and the
COA.
