Woodlake Baptist Church San Antonio Texas

1. What are the requirements for becoming a member of Woodlake
Baptist Church?
Personal faith in Jesus Christ.
(What does that mean? Check the "Become A Christian" link.)

2. What are the steps I need to take? How do I go about becoming a
member?
Candidates for membership may be received at any service in one of the following
ways:

a. By public profession of faith and for baptism.
b. By letter of membership or promise of letter of membership from a Baptist
church or a church of like faith or order.
c. By statement of faith or believers baptism.

3. What if I'm not sure yet? How can I get my questions and concerns
answered?
You may schedule a meeting with the pastor or any staff member by calling the
church at (210) 661-5415 or send an email to wbcsatx@gmail.com or use the
"Contact Us" link. If you contact us by email, please include contact information.

4. What do you teach about baptism? Would I have to be baptized again
in order to be a member here?
Baptism is a "promise made to God from a good conscience" (1 Peter 3:21). We
urge all believers to be baptized (immersed) as a public demonstration of their
desire to put their faith in Jesus. Those who have already been baptized (by
immersion) before coming to Woodlake Baptist as described above (not as a part of
salvation) don't need to be baptized again. For those who are not, we'd consider it
a privilege to be a part of this important step. The pastor has a class for all baptism
candidates.

5. How can I get involved in the ministries of Woodlake Baptist Church?
The first way is to join one of our Sunday School (Bible Study) classes that meet
each Sunday morning at 9:45 a.m. These small groups provide opportunity for
worship and fellowship in an atmosphere where you may easily get to know other
members.

The second way is to read the weekly Praise and Worship bulletin to find out the
different activities of the church.

The third is to attend a ministry meeting such as the Women's or Men's ministries,
look for opportunities of service in our Music & Worship Ministry or Children's area.

6. Can nonmembers attend Sunday School or other meetings?
Most definitely. The only meetings a nonmember could not attend would be
committee meetings and they would not be allowed to vote at a business meeting.

7. Can I participate in the Lord's Supper Service even though I am not a
member?
Yes. Anyone who is a committed believer in Christ can join us in celebrating the
Lord's Supper.

8. Is it possible to get a CD or DVD of the Sunday Sermon?
Yes, please let our Minister of Music & Worship, Bro. Chuck Philips or our Youth
Minister, Bro. Larry Brown know you would like a copy or you may email us at
wbcsatx@gmail.org or use the "Contact Us" link.
