We invite you to become a member.

The local church is the way that God has chosen to make disciples and spread the gospel. Membership at HCA is an invitation to be a part of our local church. It’s about making a decision to give your time, talents and resources to a community of faith and joining us as we pursue our mission.

It’s true: You won’t find any reference to church membership in the Bible, but the concept is everywhere.

From what we can tell, in the New Testament, you didn’t sign a paper or go upfront after service to move your membership from one church to the next. But the concept of belonging to a group of believers, under the authority of church elders, is all over the Scriptures.

When we receive the gift of salvation, we are not only saved into a relationship with God, but we are saved into a community of believers, the Church. Belonging and becoming a member of a local church is the way we affirm and live out that reality. We commit our lives to Christ and to one another because we need one another. It’s with and through other Christians that we grow as disciples and make disciples.
