Church Covenant
Having been brought to an understanding of our sin and of the grace of God in the Lord Jesus Christ, having received Him as personal Savior and desiring to live for Him in the fellowship of other believers as He has commanded, we now covenant with God and the believers in this church to walk together in brotherly love.
• That we will care for each other, counsel, warn, rebuke and encourage each other as taught in God’s word.
• That we will share the joys and sorrows of fellow believers as though they were our own and carefully protect the reputation of our brothers and sisters in Christ from all gossip and backbiting.
• That we will be faithful to our scriptural responsibility to regularly attend, lovingly serve and cheerfully support the ministries of this church.
• That we will share in the ordinances and discipline of the church and uphold and obey its God ordained leaders.
• That by His grace we will live a godly life, denying the sinful practices of the world, and pursuing holiness in conformity to the Word of God in all attitude and behavior.
• That throughout our earthly life, through good times and difficult times, we will strive by His grace to live to the glory of our Savior.
• That if we move from this community, we will as soon as possible unite with a church of like faith and ministry where we can support a similar covenant and the teachings of the word of God.
