Church Covenant

Having been led, as we believe, by the Spirit of God to receive the Lord Jesus Christ as our Saviour, and on
the profession of our faith, having been baptized in the name of the Father and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, we
do now in the presence of God, angels, and this assembly, most solemnly and 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 doctrine; to contribute cheerfully and regularly to the support of the ministry,
the expenses of the church, the relief of the poor, and the spread of the gospel through all nations. 
We also engage to maintain family and secret devotion; 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 engagement, and exemplary in our deportment; to avoid all tattling, backbiting, and excessive anger; to abstain
from the sale and use of intoxicating drinks as a beverage, and to be zealous in our efforts to advance the kingdom of
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 secure it without delay. 


We moreover engage that when we remove 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.
