LPPC Membership Path
Please accept our invitation to become a member of the Lower Providence Presbyterian Church.
LPPC receives new members by the following means:
Confession of Faith – if you have never been a member of a Christian Church and you confess your faith in Jesus as Lord and Savior.
Re-Affirmation of Faith – if you were previously a member of a Christian Church but a transfer letter is unavailable.
Transfer of Membership from another Christian Church
New Member Process:
Our new member process has been developed to give expression to each individual’s calling to membership in Christ’s Church. Within the process we will also inform prospective members of things they should know and understand about being Presbyterian.
For more information please contact Judy Baker in the church office (610) 539-6635 x107.
Confirmation
Confirmation class is for those in 8th grade who wish to decide if they want to become Church members.
The goal of this process is for each person in the class to learn what it means to become a follower of Jesus Christ (i.e., a member of the Church). This includes discovery through:
- The Bible message
- The nature of the Church as the Body of Christ
- The “means of grace” (i.e., study the Scripture, worship and the Sacraments, prayer, giving, service)
- God’s claim on our lives
- The nature of Christian commitment (membership questions)
- Emphasis is placed on the practice of the Christian faith because this is what they will be asked to do for the rest of their lives.
The process begins in October with a Confirmation Dinner attended by confirmands, parents and sponsors. It culminates on Confirmation Sunday typically held in May. For questions about Confirmation, please contact Rev. Cara Cavicchia at 610-539-6635 or ccavicchia@lppcmin.org.
