Having been brought, as we trust, by Divine Grace to embrace the Lord Jesus Christ as our Saviour, and having been baptized, upon the confession of our faith, into the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, we do most solemnly enter into covenant with one another as one body in Christ. We engage, as God shall enable us, to walk together in brotherly love, to exercise in Christian care and watchfulness over each other, to participate in each other's joys, to endeavor, with tenderness and sympathy to bear each other's sorrows, to strive for the advancement of our church in knowledge and holiness, to promote its prosperity and spirituality, to sustain its worship, ordinances and doctrines, to contribute cheerfully to the support of the ministry, the expenses of the church, the relief of the poor, and the spread of the gospel through all the world; to avail ourselves of the great privilege of prayer for ourselves and for others, to walk circumspectly and watchfully in the world, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, to abstain from every appearance of evil, and ever remembering our relationship to the Lord Jesus Christ as our Master, and King, to seek amidst evil report and good report to live to His glory.

"To serve the living and true God and to wait for His Son from heaven" (1 Thess. 1:9-10)
