What if my child cries during the church service?Our church is filled with families and members of every age, so we understand that little ones will sometimes cry or make noise in church...but don't worry, we've got you covered! There is a nursery and training chapel that looks into the main sanctuary if your child begins to cry or needs a break to play. It is located to the left of the main sanctuary, just down the side hall. We appreciate your efforts to maintain the sanctity of the sanctuary and ensure there are no noisy distractions during the message portion of the service. We have many who are hard of hearing, so noise would make the sermon even harder to hear over talking, crying, or loud toys. Thank you for your understanding!
-
Do I need to stay with my child during class?Younger Kids: We recommend that parents stay in the classroom with younger children who require aid. You'll likely see other parents in the classrooms, and we recommend this for classrooms ranging in age from 0-5. Once your child is comfortable with their class and teacher (and does not require full care), you are welcome to chat with the teacher about dropping your child off at classes. Older Kids: Feel free to drop off your older or more independent children. We have a friendly staff of teachers who can help your child enjoy participating in classes.

How long are the services?On average, Sabbath school classes last a little less than an hour. The main church service usually lasts an hour and a half and includes song service, special music, children's story, tithe and offering, garden of prayer, and then culminates into the sermon. Prayer meeting lasts one hour.
-
How should I dress?We respect the principles of Christian modesty and simplicity in our attire, therefore most members choose to wear attire that is business, business casual, or semi-formal. Please wear what is comfortable for you.
-
Am I expected to give an offering?No. However, if you would like to give your tithe and/or give an offering, there are envelopes in the pews that you may use, or you can give a free-will offering without an envelope. Both are placed into the offering plates as they are passed around during the "offertory" portion of the service. You may notice many members participating in tithe and offering because of their desire to honor God by giving back 10% of their increase.

Ready to Become a Member?
The Kernersville Seventh-day Adventist Church is a community of faith in which all are welcomed to participate in its worship services and its fellowship. Some choose to take a further step of commitment and personal involvement in the ministries of the church by becoming an active member. If you are looking for a church home, or perhaps you are new to our community, we would love to welcome you into our church!
There are 3 different ways you can become a member of the Kernersville Seventh-day Adventist Church:
1. Baptism:
The Seventh-day Adventist Church believes and practices baptism by immersion. For those who are beginning their walk with Jesus for the first time, or making a renewed commitment, baptism is a symbol of that new life in Christ and entrance into His church. (Acts 2:38-47)
If you have never been baptized by immersion and would like to take that step, please contact us by phone, e-mail, or by online Contact Form, and your inquiry will be directed to the Pastor who will meet with you and help you prepare for this important event.
2. Profession of Faith:
If you have already been baptized by immersion in another Christian denomination, you may become a member of the Kernersville Seventh-day Adventist Church by a simple declaration of your personal faith in Jesus Christ, as well as have a clear understanding of basic Seventh-day Adventist Fundamental Beliefs.
You can begin that process by contacting us by phone, e-mail, or by using our online Contact Form. As soon as we receive your information, we will contact you so that you can set up an appointment with the Pastor.
3. Membership Transfer:
If you currently hold membership in a Seventh-day Adventist church and want to establish your membership at the Kernersville Seventh-day Adventist Church, you may do so by transferring your membership. Please contact us by phone, e-mail, or use our online Contact Form to begin the Transfer Membership process.
