New members are welcomed and received by the Session by:
- Profession of Faith - those who are professing faith in Jesus Christ and are joining the Christian church for the first time.
- Reaffirmation of Faith - those who are reaffirming their faith in Jesus Christ but are not current members of another Christian church.
- Letter of Transfer - those who desire to transfer their active membership from another Christian church.
New member classes are offered throughout the year. The class includes a dinner or bar-b-que that is hosted by the previous new members' class. The class is an informal gathering to learn about the mission and ministries of Heritage and the PC(USA).
