Application Procedures for
Individuals & Households

To enter into association with other Welcoming & Affirming Baptists, individuals should:

1. Complete the Individual Membership Application Form or online process.

2. Include a statement of welcome and affirmation or indicate support for AWAB’s purpose and mission on the application form.

Rather than require adherence to a prescribed statement, each member of the Association is requested to submit their own statement. This might be part of your own personal journey, a statement about your involvement with the gay community, your attitude towards the role of lesbian/gay/bisexual persons in the church, a sermon, etc. Read "About Statements of Welcome & Affirmation" for more information.

3. Enclose membership donation or donate online.

Suggested amounts for annual membership donations for individuals and families are listed below. Checks should be made payable to "AWAB" or membership donations made online by credit card or PayPal using the link below.
