Steps to Joining Bayside
Joining the church is done in one of three ways:
Bayside offers New Member Classes several times a year to learn more about our faith community.
Session is charged with accepting new members into the church. You will be asked to attend the first part of a session meeting, ask any questions or share any thoughts you may have, and session will vote to admit you as a member of Bayside.
Finally, you will be introduced to the congregation at a Sunday morning service.
