St. Joseph’s welcomes our visitors and hopes they will enjoy our worship, fellowship, and opportunities to know Christ and make Him known. Some visitors may wish to join right away, and others may like to visit a few months before joining officially. If you are ready to become an official new member, please know:
-
If you are not baptized, speak to Father John to discuss your faith and your wish to become baptized...regardless of age. We have baptisms several times a year, and we would be happy to have you baptized here!
-
If you are baptized and/or a confirmed Episcopalian, but your official records are not on file at St. Joseph’s, we can contact your former church (with your help) and get a copy of your baptism and/or confirmation and transfer your record here.
-
If you are not confirmed, which is our ceremony for an adult profession of faith, please discuss your desire for confirmation with Fr. John. If you were confirmed in another denomination, that confirmation will be “received” by our bishop at a Confirmation ceremony—which are held at the Cathedral of St. Philip in Atlanta.
In any case, help us learn more about you by completing a Parish Information Form (PIF), which can be found on the newcomer’s table in the narthex—the lobby just outside the Nave (the worship space). The information will help us get you connected to the ministries that may be of interest to you.
Please contact the church office for questions on membership transfer or to make an appointment to visit with Fr. John about membership and faith. Call 770-957-7517.
