Membership Matters is an easy way for you to discover more about FBC Portland and how your family can be a part of our local church. During these membership sessions, you’ll discover:

• Why membership in the local church is important.

• The history and direction of FBC Portland.

• The importance of worship and what this looks like at FBC Portland.

• How to find community and grow in discipleship at First Baptist.

• How God has uniquely gifted you and opportunities to use those gifts.

• And, our responsibility to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ in our homes, community and around the globe.

Each session consists of a presentation and some meaningful questions to help you think through your own spiritual journey. These sessions [2 of them] will be provided quarterly on Sunday morning from 9:45-11:45 AM.
