Founders’ Covenant

We desire and by the Aids of Divine Grace do promise to walk in all the Statutes and Ordinances of the Lord, to assemble for God’s worship, to keep Holy the Sabbath Day, to maintain Family Religion and Secret Prayer, and to honor our High and Holy Vocations by Lives of Piety toward God and Benevolence toward all people, and so do now join ourselves into this Church and covenant to walk with it in Christian Love and Faithfulness according to the Rules given us in God’s Holy Word. This we do in humble Dependence on God, praying that God will enable us to be Faithful and steadfast in this Covenant. Amen.
(Approved by the Founders of our church in 1765)
