OUR CHURCH COVENANT
Having been lead as we believe, by the Spirit of God, to receive the Lord Jesus Christ as our Savior and on the profession of our faith, having been baptized in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, we do now in the presence of God, and this assembly, most joyfully enter into covenant with one another as one body in Christ.
We engage therefore, by the aid of the Holy Spirit to walk together in Christian love. To strive for the advancement of this church, in knowledge, Holiness and comfort. To promote its prosperity and spirituality, to sustain its worship. ordinances, discipline and doctrines. To contribute cheerfully and regularly to the support of the ministry, the expenses of the church, the relief of the poor, and spread of the gospel through all nations.
We also engage to maintain family and secret devotions, to religiously educate our children: to seek the salvation of our kindred and acquaintances. To walk circumspectly in the world, to be just in our dealings, faithful in our engagements, and exemplary in our deportment; to avoid all tattling, backbiting, and excessive anger; to abstain from the sale of and use of intoxicating drinks as beverages, to be zealous in our efforts to advance the Kingdom our Saviour.
We further engage to watch over one another in brotherly love, to remember each other in prayer, to aid each other in sickness and distress, to cultivate Christian sympathy in feeling and courtesy in speech; to be slow to take offense, but always ready for reconciliation and mindful of the rules of our Saviour, to seek without delay.
We moreover engage that when we move from this place, we will as soon as possible, unite with some other church where we can carry out the spirit of this Covenant and the principles of God's Word. Humbly confessing our sins, we pray for grace and strength to keep these, our Holy vows for the sake of Jesus Christ our Lord AMEN
