New Member Classes
The Pastor's Class is a six week membership class, which is required for those who are interested in becoming members of Cypress Wood Presbyterian Church. Our Pastor's Class is taught by Pastor Jonathan Loerop. The class is offered twice a year (February and September). The class is designed to help you get to know Pastor Jonathan and to prepare you to be a fruitful member of the body of Christ by discussing the basics of Christianity, church membership, and spiritual growth. It also introduces you to the unique history, beliefs, ministries, practices, and vision of Cypress Wood.
After completing the class, those desiring to pursue membership will meet with Pastor Jonathan and then the elders of Cypress Wood for a private interview. New members will then be welcomed as members during a Sunday morning worship service.
For more information, or to sign up for the next Pastor's Class, please contact the church office: 353-8444 or email office@cypresswoodpca.com.
