                  *  Church Covenant:

 

Having been led, as we believe by the Holy Spirit of God, to receive the Lord Jesus Christ as our Savior and, on profession of our faith, having been baptized in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, we do now, in the presence of God, 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 advancement of this church, in knowledge, in holiness, and in comfort; to promote church prosperity and spirituality; to sustain church worship, ordinances, discipline and doctrines; 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 private devotions; to educate regularly our children; to seek salvation of our kindred and acquaintances; to walk circumspectly in the world; to be just in our dealings, faithful in our engagements and exemplary in our deportment; to avoid all tattling, backbiting, and excessive anger; to abstain from the sale of and use of destructive drugs or intoxicating drinks as beverages; to shun pornography; to be zealous in our efforts to advance the Kingdom of our Savior.

 

We further engage to watch over one another in brotherly love; to remember one another in prayer; to aid one another in sickness and distress; to cultivate Christian sympathy in feeling and Christian courtesy in speech; to be slow to take offense but always ready for reconciliation and mindful of the rules of our Savior to secure that reconciliation without delay.

 

We moreover engage that when we move from this place we will, as soon as possible, unite with some other church where we may carry out the spirit of this covenant and the principles of God’s Word.

Statement of Basic Beliefs

 

We affirm the Holy Bible as the inspired Word of God and the basis for our beliefs.  This church subscribes to the doctrinal statement of the Baptist Faith and Message as adopted by the Southern Baptist Convention on June 14, 2000.

 

We voluntarily band ourselves together as a body of baptized believers in Jesus Christ personally committed to sharing the good news of Salvation to lost mankind.  The ordinances of the church are believer’s baptism and the Lord’s Supper.
