"The First Baptist Church of Magnolia exists to glorify God through passionate worship that exalts Him, Authentic Community that strengthens families and individuals, intentional living that transforms lives, and unselfish service that changes our community and world."

The different ways that a person may join First Baptist Church Magnolia are:

• Trusting Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior
  
  
• Making a commitment to be baptized
  Indicating that you have previously trusted Christ as your Savior and have never been scripturally baptized as a public statement of your salvation.
  
  
• Statement of Faith and Previous Scriptural Baptism
  Stating that you have previously trusted Christ as your Savior and was baptized by immersion after your salvation. One would join in this manner when coming from a church from another denomination with the same core beliefs.
  
  
• Transfer of your Membership from another Baptist church

In each service, we provide an opportunity to come forward and meet with our pastor and pastoral staff to discuss membership or other decisions you have made.  At that time, you would be connected to one of our altar counselors to help you understand church membership.

If you are uncomfortable with coming forward during the service, you may contact the church office at anytime and we will set up a time to meet with you and/or your family.  Or, you may attend one of our "Meet the Pastors" luncheons at which time we explain membership and give an opportunity to join.  These luncheons are scheduled often, look for it in our announcements or contact the church office for dates at (281) 356-8543.
