Church Membership

West Huntsville is a community of believers focused on Jesus Christ and intentionally committed to loving our neighbors.

What Is A Member?

WHBC membership is important because it distinguishes those people that have professed faith in Jesus Christ, that have followed the Lord in obedience of baptism, and that have a desire to live out the “one anothers” of the New Testament. It is the outward way we say that we are committed to one another as we walk with the Lord together in this local body. Membership allows us to express our desire to be part of the “household of faith.” (Galatians 6:10)

Engaged Members

We understand the Bible to describe and prescribe members of the body of Christ as being engaged members contributing to the life and health of the complete church body.

Membership Process

  1. Attend a WHBC Membership Seminar
  2. Ways to become a member of WHBC:
    • Professing Christ by baptism
    • Professing Christ and transferring membership from another similarly believing church
    • Professing Christ by making a statement of your faith and believer’s baptism prior to coming to WHBC
  3. Present yourself before the congregation in a service
