If you have recently visited our church or are considering a visit soon, we would be thrilled to meet you and welcome you into our family of faith. Below are the simple, yet vitally important steps in becoming a part of our church.

Salvation

Salvation is God's free gift to mankind, offered through Jesus Christ.  It is accepted by faith  through grace and cannot be earned. It is the one and only door to everlasting life.

Baptism

Once we have accepted God's free gift of salvation, the Bible commands us to signify that decision with baptism. Baptism is not a part of salvation, but rather the first step of obedience as a new believer in Christ.

Membership

Membership in the local church matters. It is as important to us individually as to the body at large. It provides an atmosphere of community,  encouragement, acceptability, and commitment.

Grow / Serve

Once you have taken the exciting steps of becoming a child of God and a member here at Bay View, the next step is to get involved and discover your purpose in extending God's love to others.
