5577. Reception of Student Members.
Minister: The Church desires to embrace within its care and nurture those who are converted to Christ early in life and who desire to know more about Jesus and His will for themselves. These have come for reception as student members so they may be discipled by the Church and may, at the proper time, assume a greater place of responsibility and leadership in the Church. To these we address these questions.

Minister: Does the Lord now forgive your sins?

Candidate: Yes, He does.

Minister: Is it your purpose that you will grow in your knowledge of Jesus Christ and His will for you, to study daily in private devotions and regularly at the church, so you will mature in your faith and be prepared to serve as the Lord may direct you?

Candidate: Yes, it is.
