them.
The Discover WIC class also stresses the
importance of service and asks you to discover how you can best serve
your community. This portion of the class covers Spiritual Gifts
and challenges members to use their unique gifts to the best of their
ability.
At the conclusion of the class members will
be asked if they would like to become members.
What if I
want to become a member of WIC?
At the conclusion of the class you will be
given the opportunity to become a member of Washington International
Church. Should you want to become a member all you have to do is
indicate your interest and the Pastoral staff will help you with the
next few steps which usually included baptism (if you are not already
baptized), completion of a membership application and an official
introduction to the WIC community during the Sunday worship service.
What if I
don't want to become a member of WIC?
That is ok! We
want to encourage everyone to take the class regardless of whether or
not they want to become a member of the church or not. If you
decide to become a member, great! if not you will walk away with a
better understanding of the foundational values and beliefs of our
church community.
