We encourage all who consider The Falls Church Anglican to be their church home to become official members.
Why become a member?
We believe every individual Christian has an integral part to play in the life of a local church, and that it is within His church that Christ desires to form and bless us. Membership shows that you are committed to and in agreement with The Falls Church Anglican’s mission, ministry and community.
As a member you are eligible to:
- participate more fully in our church community
- serve in leadership within a variety of ministries
- vote in meetings and vestry elections
How do I become a member?
Three times throughout the year, we offer a four-week Membership & Confirmation Course on Wednesday evenings, in the fall and spring, and on Sunday mornings in the summer. This course is for adults who desire to make a deeper commitment to this body of Christ through membership, join the wider Anglican Communion through Confirmation, or simply want to learn more about The Falls Church Anglican: who we are, what we believe and what it means to be Anglican. Requirements for membership are:
- Complete Membership and Confirmation Course
- Submit Membership Application and Statement of Faith
- Complete a Membership interview with a TFCA Clergy
- Be presented at New Members Sunday and Confirmation Sunday
Note: Full participation in this course also prepares you for our annual Confirmation service with our Bishop, which is held each spring. During this service, confirmands will be prayed for by the Bishop and welcomed formally into the Anglican church.
Confirmed Members can stand for vestry as well as represent The Falls Church Anglican at regional, national, and global Anglican synods and assemblies.
