How to Join FUPCDC

Everyone already "belongs" at FUPCDC, but maybe you are ready to make it official. If you are interested in joining our church, we would love to have you. Please come to a Discover First United Lunch and Program and learn more. For upcoming dates, please email the church at office@fupcdc.org or call 703-670-7834. You can also contact Pastor Adam about membership at anytime, adam.bowling@fupcdc.org.

The questions of membership are: 

  • Who is your Lord and Savior? Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior. 

  • Do you trust him? I do. 

  • Do you intend to be his disciple, to obey his Word, and to show his love? I do. 

  • Will you be a faithful member of this congregation, giving of yourself in every way, and will you seek the fellowship of the church wherever you may be? I will.

Individuals may join the church by Profession of Faith and Baptism (for those who have never been baptized); by Reaffirmation of Faith (for those who are not currently active members of another Christian church); or by Transfer of Church Letter (for those on the active roll of another church).  Individuals may also choose to join as a Friend of the Church, meant for those who want to have an official connection to the church, but aren’t able or ready to become a full member yet. Friend of the Church membership carries all the privileges of active membership except the right to vote in congregational meetings and hold church office as a Deacon or Elder. Friends of the Church can be Ministry Team Leaders.
