We were excited to welcome five new members to LCPC on Sunday, 5th of November. Rachel, Rue, Victor and Gus took vows of membership in the morning service, and Joshua in the evening service, led by our pastor Andy, and officially became a part of the LCPC family.
They vowed, firstly, that they believe Jesus to be the Son of God and only saviour of sinners, in whom they have put their personal hope and trust as sinners in need of forgiveness and spiritual life, secondly, that they resolve in prayerful reliance on the grace of God and power of the Holy Spirit to live as disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ, thirdly, that they promise to support our church family in its worship and work with their gifts and graces, to the best of their ability, and finally, that they submit themselves to the pastoral care, teaching and discipline of the elders of this church, and seek its peace and prosperity as the elders promise to love and care for them. Our new members uttered, ‘I do,’ after each of these vows, and then Andy prayed in thanksgiving and rejoicing, asking for God’s blessing and strength for Rachel, Rue, Victor, Gus and Joshua, and the rest of the LCPC family.
