MEMBERSHIP

We believe that a visible church of Christ is a congregation of baptized believers, associated by covenant in the faith and fellowship of the gospel; observing the ordinances of Christ; governed by His laws; and exercising the gifts, rights, and privileges invested in them by His word…

Becoming a Member

  • The first step in pursuing membership at High Pointe is attending our Membership Class.

    • We offer Membership Classes every other month.

  • Upon the completion of the membership class, we will need:

    In the interview, we will discuss:

    • Your testimony and conversion.

    • Your understanding of the gospel.

    • Any questions that you may have about High Pointe.

    This is simply a chance for us to get to know you—think of it more like a conversation and less like a job interview.

    • Upon the affirmation of the elders, they will recommend you to the congregation for membership.

    • Our members will then vote to affirm you during a members' meeting.

    Please note that you won't be present during that members' meeting since you won't be a member yet.
