Becoming a Member of FPCLG
Finding a church home is a thoughtful and rewarding decision. We are delighted you are considering the First Presbyterian Church of La Grange! We promise a caring congregation that will help you find new friends, new sources of strength to meet lifes challenges, and deepening ties to God.
While some new members come from a Presbyterian background, many more come from diverse faith backgrounds. We welcome and invite all, and our congregation is enriched by all.
Considering Membership?
We offer a series of Inquirers Classes designed to introduce you to our church and Presbyterianism. These classes are held every few months based on need. Please contact the church office by phoning 708.354.0771 or e-mail us to find out when the next ones are being held.
Inquirers Classes
During our Inquirers Class we explore such topics as our faith journey, what we look for in a church, and responsibilities of church membership. We will present information on the Presbyterian Church in general and our church in particular. Elders, deacons and committees will be discussed. Child care is provided.
Requirements for Membership
New members must attend Inquirers Class and be received into the congregation by the Church Session (local governing body) and by one of the following:
