Step 2
Express your desire for membership through one of the following means:

Profession of faith
If you have never received Jesus as Savior and Lord and/or never publicly confessed Him, you will be given the opportunity to do so. After your decision has been confirmed, an appointment will be made for your baptism at Azalea.

Transfer of membership from another Southern Baptist Church
If you are currently a member of another Southern Baptist Church, we will receive you as a member upon promise of a letter from that church. Azalea will contact that church to notify them of your decision and request your letter.

By statement of faith
If you have previously made a public decision, acknowledging that you have received Christ as your Savior and Lord, we will be happy to receive you. It will be necessary for you to be baptized at Azalea if you have never been baptized Scripturally (as a beleiver, by immersion, in the name of the Father, Son , and Holy Spirit, and as a symbol of your salvation).

Step 3
Attend the New Member Class
We strongly encourage you to attend our New Member Class. This special class will give you an understanding of our key beliefs, philosophy of ministry, and opportunities to serve.
