Membership

Westminster is a welcoming church with a number of places for each person to connect with the faith community. For some, connection may be a quiet affair, with participation in Sunday worship, the prayer chain, or other “low-key” elements of church life. Other members may be looking for service within the church, or outreach to the community working alongside other church members. Whatever your particular expression of faith, we hope you will find Westminster a place where you will deepen your faith, grow in relationship, and find gladness as you continue your walk with God.

New Member Class

New Member Classes are offered on first Tuesday evenings of each month to learn about Westminster: the Presbyterian faith, our worship, and our activities and events. This is a time to learn if Westminster is the right fit for your spiritual journey at this time of your life. We know that joining a church is an important decision. Classes are held via Zoom or in person in the Johnson Parlor, which is on the second (main) floor of the building, near the chapel. Elevator access is available from the lower lobby off the parking lot.

Joining Westminster as a Member or Affiliate Member

After attending the New Member class, if you wish to unite with the congregation of Westminster, you will be asked to complete the New Member Information Form. (The form is fillable; download first to fill out, or print and fill out.)

You and other prospective new members will then meet briefly with the Session on a Sunday morning before worship, usually the third Sunday of the month. During the worship service that follows, you will stand before the congregation and recite vows to be received into membership.

During the school year, you'll meet with Session just prior to the 11:00 AM worship service; during the summer, you'll meet just prior to the 10:00 AM service.
