Get to know people:

​

The best way to get to know people in our church is to come consistently on Sundays and to take the opportunity to linger after the service and talk. Once a month we have an all-church meal after the Sunday Worship Service that provides an especially good opportunity for this. The main way we seek to cultivate close-knit relationships in our church family is through our weekly Gospel Community Groups. In many ways, Gospel Community Groups become like a household within the "extended family" of the church - a smaller group of people in the church who pray for, care for, and encourage one another. You are very welcome to visit.

​

Membership:
 

We encourage every Christian to "put their roots down" and commit to membership in the church. This is far more vital than many people realise! We provide a class a couple times a year that will help you learn more about church membership in general and about becoming a member at Pretoria West Bible Church in particular. You don't have to have decided that you want to become a member of our church before you take this class - in fact, one of the goals of the class is to be helpful for people who are still thinking through this decision.

​
