FGEA Membership

FGEA welcomes everyone into membership who can wholeheartedly agree with our Declaration of Faith, Policy, Rules and Constitution (please see links below).  The annual subscription fee is £5.


Subscribing members form the legal governance of the Association and must sign annually their agreement to the Declaration of Faith, Objects and the means by which they are to be furthered. This is to ensure that the doctrinal basis of the Association’s work, and the literature that is funded and selected for free distribution, is retained without compromise. Once signed up as a member, you will be prompted each year, in May, to renew your membership.
