Next Steps: Church Membership
Membership matters here at FBC Thomasville. More than calling this your church home, we believe membership means committing your life to this group of believers and joining us on the mission to help people follow Jesus for the joy of Thomasville and the nations.
Process for Church Membership
Meet with Pastor Paul or another member of the leadership team: This is an opportunity for us to get to know you better and to hear about your spiritual journey with the Lord.
Attend the Next Steps Class: The Next Steps class occurs approximately once every three months. The class gives you a summary of what we believe, where we are going, and how you can become a member.
Congregational Affirmation: At our quarterly Members’ Meeting, the church receives and affirms new members. We do this because you are making a commitment to become a part of the Thomasville First Baptist family. You are making a commitment to the church and the church is making a commitment to you.
Requirement for Church Membership
Any one of the following:
By profession of faith in Christ and baptism by immersion.
By presenting oneself as a believer who needs to be scripturally baptized.
By a letter from a Southern Baptist Church.
By statement of faith in Jesus Christ and testimony of baptism by immersion.
