Having been led, as we believe, by the
, to receive the
as our
and on the profession of our faith, having been
in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit,
we do now in the

and
enter into covenant with one another, as one body in Christ.
We engage therefore, by the aid of the
, to walk together in
; to strive for the
of this Church in
,
, and
; to promise its prosperity and spirituality; to sustain its
,
,
, and
, 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 encourage to maintain
devotions; to teach our children the
; to seek the
of our kindred and acquaintances, to walk
in the world; to be
in our dealings;
in our engagements;
in our deportment; to avoid all tattling; backbiting and
; to
from the abuse of drugs and the sale and use of
as a beverage; and to be zealous in our efforts to advance the
Kingdom of our Savior.
We further engage to
over one another in
; to remember each other in
; to aid each other in sickness and
; to cultivate Christian sympathy in feeling and
; to be
but always
and mindful of the rules of our Savior; to secure it without
delay. We moreover engage that when we remove from this place, we will
as soon as possible
with some other Church (preferably of like faith) where we can
carry out the
of this covenant and
of God's Word.
