Yeshua said, "The person old in days will not hesitate to ask a small child seven days old about the place of life, and that one will live. For many who are first will become last, and they will become one completed unity."
The Gospel of Thomas, 4

The Apostolic Gnostic Church in America (AGCA):
Membership Application Page
We are delighted that you are interested in membership in the AGCA. If you haven't yet had the opportunity, we would encourage you to read the information on Church membership contained in the section Who We Are on this website.
To reemphasize a few of the points made in that section:
- There are never any financial costs or expectations from any Church members on any level, at any time. Members may incur some minor personal expenses from wishing to purchase books and liturgical materials, but we have a limited amount of resources with which we can assist people if they find this to be a significant hardship. We are devoted to ensuring that financial issues will never stand between the individual and the pursuit of gnosis in our Gnostic family.
- We do not insist that members of the Church be exclusive in their institutional affiliations. Members of other churches or religious organizations are welcome to join our Church as well
- We are not a dogmatic Church, so we do not ask or demand members to agree with other members on every single point of Gnostic theology. We accept and indeed welcome a rich diversity of opinions and beliefs within the basic contours of Gnostic thought. We are not here to dictate the mode of your spiritual journey, but rather to assist you on the way.
- All sacraments of initiation are public liturgies, open to all who want to attend. There are no secret ceremonies, private rituals, or hidden rites.
- You do not need to be a member of our Church to participate fully in our liturgical and ritual life. We welcome all people of good faith to attend and celebrate our liturgies, prayers, and rituals. You can read more about this here.
If you are ready to proceed, you can download our membership application in Word format or in Rich Text Format. Simply insert your responses and send the form by e-mail to gnosis@gnostic-church.org. You will receive a message in reply welcoming you to our Church family!
