How to Join Myers Park Presbyterian Church

You are invited to join the work, witness, and fellowship of the Myers Park Presbyterian Church. If you would like to become a member, we invite you to participate in our five-week new members class. The classes are held at multiple times throughout the year and are offered at 9:45 a.m. on Sunday morning or on the following Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. for those who cannot attend on Sunday. Only the final Sunday is not repeated on the following Wednesday.

For those of you interested in learning more about Myers Park Presbyterian Church or the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) in general we invite you to learn a little more about us online. Senior Pastor Steve Eason's weekly video soundbites are short 1-2 minute messages that go hand-in-hand with his sermons and are a great way to learn more about the "flavor" of our church as well as the topics covered. You can find them here.  Whether you're a life-long Christian or just searching and think that the Presbyterian Church (USA) is something you may be interested in; browse our resources and bring us your questions when you're ready. We'll look forward to hearing from you soon. Once you're ready to take the next step, our new members class information is listed below.
