Membership
Joining Our Church
If you are coming to us from an Episcopal background, you can email our Parish Secretary, Rebecca Teel or call her at 385-2150 and ask her to contact your previous church to transfer your membership. If you come from a tradition other than Episcopal, Catholic, or Orthodox, we request that you attend our Confirmation classes and be confirmed when our bishop makes his annual visit in the spring.
Confirmation
Confirmation represents a public affirmation of personal faith. In the Anglican and Episcopal tradition, confirmation is always done by a bishop. Bishops perform the act of confirmation as a way to acknowledge “apostolic succession”—that is, the presence of bishops guiding the church from the earliest days, centuries ago. Those joining the Episcopal Church from other faith traditions, even if they have already been confirmed, may still go before the bishop to join the Episcopal Church or reaffirm their faith.
