New Member Class - Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I complete New Member classes?
New member classes are important because they help new members understand the mission, vision and values of Eastern Star Church. After completing classes, new members will feel more a part of the Eastern Star community. New Members will also be able to participate in ministry.

How do I start?
All new members must first join the church by walking down front at invitation time during worship service and complete the New Member Enrollment form. Then, attend the next class offering. Your teacher will provide you with class materials.

What if I miss a class? / Can I mix classes?
It is better that new members stick with one schedule so that classes will be completed in order. Yet, we do understand that life happens therefore classes can be mixed.

What about children who are new members?
Children 5-12 currently join through Children’s Church and only need to attend Children’s Church on a regular basis. Teens ages 13-19 need to attend Teen New Members classes offered Wednesdays @ 7pm on the 3rd floor at our main campus.

Is childcare provided at new member classes?
For new members attending Saturday sessions, childcare is provided in Rm 106B. (Children should bring a sack lunch.)
For new members attending Sunday sessions, children can attend our Sunday School classes. (For class locations, please see our Sunday School webpage or talk with an usher).
