Becoming a Member

First and most important, you are always welcome to come and participate.

If, as you grow in your life in Christ, you would like to join with us in a formal way, we hope that you will contact the church office or a member of the clergy as soon as is convenient.

Membership in Holy Spirit involves regular attendance at worship, a commitment to continued growth through Christian education, giving for the spread of the Kingdom as one is able, and undertaking a ministry on behalf of others.

There are a number of ways you can become a member of Holy Spirit:

  • Baptism in the name of the Trinity is for anyone, of any age.
  • Confirmation is a public commitment to the terms of the Baptismal Covenant, in the presence of the Bishop, following a period of instruction.
  • Reception is for those who have previously made a mature public commitment in another Church, and also takes place in the presence of the Bishop, following a period of instruction.
  • If you are already a baptized and confirmed member of an Episcopal congregation, simply let us know that you're ready to transfer your membership and we will gladly begin the process.
