Thank you so much for your interest in becoming a member of Messiah Lutheran Church!
This form will be used by our Parish Adminstrator to enter you into our secure online Realm Directory program and will be kept private. Once you and your family are welcomed as members of Messiah Lutheran Church, you will receive an invite to create and modify your Realm profile and decide what basic contact information you would like to share with the rest of the congregation.
The main reason for the detailed number of questions regarding Date of Birth, Baptism Date & Place, Confirmation Date & Place, etc. is because church directories have historically served as a core source of geneological information for future generations. We also like to wish folks happy birthday! If you don't have all the information required of you, don't worry!
The form has been created in order for households of up to five individuals to sign up at once. If you have more than five members of your household, please simply submit a second form.
Feel free to contact Pastor Dustin as well at pastor@messiahschenectady.org if you have any questions!
