Dear New Member:

It is finished. Your search has ended. Welcome to St. Stephen Church!

I am grateful to God that you are here and have decided to make a commitment to God and to this church. When you accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior, your promise of eternal life with Him was sealed and your fate was finished.

When you obeyed God's leading and chose to become a member of St. Stephen Church, your search for a church home ended. God's purpose for your life however, is not finished. In fact, it's just beginning.

God wants to transform you into the likeness of His Son Jesus, so that He can use you to spread His love to others. The best way for Him to do this is by spending time with Him every day, reading His Holy Word, the Bible, and praying and meditating on the Word.

Another way is to spend time with fellow believers. We have approximately 100 active ministries and support groups and our church is open seven days a week. I want to encourage you to become involved and allow your fellow believers to minister to you, love you, and help you grow in your relationship with Jesus the Christ.

Join a "Connection Hour" Sunday school class. Attending Sunday school classes on a regular basis will give you the opportunity to socialize with other believers in an informal small group setting. It will also give you the chance to form strong friendships as you study God's Word.

St. Stephen Church is a fellowship of believers who love God, love people, and are deeply committed to advancing God's coming Kingdom. God wants to draw closer to you now more than ever and we at St. Stephen want to nurture you toward that end.

Please call on any of my staff if you need assistance. We want to make your assimilation as smooth as possible. Once again, welcome to St. Stephen Church!

Sincerely,

Kevin W. Cosby

So, warmly welcome each other into the church, just as Christ has warmly welcomed you; then God will be glorified. (Romans 15:7)
