Why? Becoming a member of a church is an important decision. When one becomes a member it is a commitment to serve others in and through the Koza family during your time on the island.

How? There are three ways to become a member. 1.By Letter: A person may unite by letter, which means that he/she has trusted Jesus as Lord and Savior; and already is a member of another Baptist church.

2. By Statement: A person may unite by statement, meaning that he/she has received Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Once they believed they received believer’s baptism by immersion.

3. By Profession of Faith: A person may unite by profession of faith and become a candidate for baptism. This means that he/she has trusted Jesus as Lord and Savior and desires to declare openly his/her belief.

When? Today if you desire to become a part of what God is doing here at Koza Baptist Church, you can speak with the deacon of the week at the close of the service.
