Membership is open to anyone who has made a profession of faith in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. If you have not yet done this, please visit our Plan of Salvation page to learn why you need to do this and how to do it.
 
How to Join
At each of our Worship services, we give you the opportunity to join Central Baptist. Following the pastor's message, he will lead the congregation in a prayer and extend an invitation to those seeking a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and/or to those seeking membership with Central Baptist. It is at this time, we will have church leaders available to meet with you and discuss your decision. We look forward to having you as a part of the Central Family.
 
Why Join?
At Central Baptist Church, we recognize the need for formal membership. We believe formal membership in a local church is important for four reasons.

1. Biblical reason: Christ is committed to the church. Ephesians 5:25 states, “Christ loved the church, and gave His life for her.” Membership in a local church is an important step in demonstrating our commitment to Christ.

2. Cultural reason: We live in an age where very few want to be committed to anything... a job, a marriage, or family. This attitude has produced a generation of church hoppers and shoppers. Membership swims against the current of America's consumer mentality and is an antidote to society. Membership sets apart from the culture allowing us to preserve our distinctive Christian beliefs and values.

3. Practical reason: Membership identifies our community and family. It defines who can be entrusted with positions of leadership within the church.

4. Personal reason: Membership produces spiritual growth. The New Testament places a major emphasis on the need for Christians to be accountable to each other for spiritual growth. A person cannot be accountable when they are not committed to any specific church family.

As you visit our church, we pray that you will consider all the benefits and privileges of membership to a local community of believers. Our prayer is that you will join us in our commitment to sharing the good news of Jesus Christ.
