Membership Information—
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

I’ve been attending Old St. Patrick’s for years, am I a member?

We do have a formal but simple membership process. You need to fill out the New Member Form here or in the back of the bulletin. You can return the completed form to the Membership Department by mail, fax or placing it in the collection basket. New members will receive an invitation to attend a New Member Dinner with Father Wall and/or Father Hurley. This is a wonderful opportunity to meet other new members and some of the Old St. Pat’s staff, as well as receive information about many of the programs our church has to offer. This is a sit-down, catered dinner in the rectory, and reservations are required.

Do I need to become a member?

No, but becoming a member puts you in our database and keeps you posted about special events, speakers' series, and other interesting things that happen regularly at Old St. Patrick's. Also, churches will ask for verification of membership to be a godparent or confirmation sponsor, to be married in their church, or to have a child baptized, so it’s a good idea to be a registered member.

Why are there three levels of membership?

Old St. Patrick’s attracts people from varying geographic locations, different stages of life and attendance patterns. We have tried to accommodate everyone by offering three levels of commitment.

How do I receive monthly giving envelopes?

Please complete the Membership Form and mark the appropriate option.

How long does the membership process take?

Although filling out the form only takes a few minutes, it is typically two weeks before your information will appear on our database.
