As those who have been brought by God’s sovereign grace to repent and believe in Jesus Christ as the Lord, Savior, and Treasure of our lives, and having been baptized, we solemnly and joyfully covenant with each other as one body in Christ.
By the Spirit’s help:
May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with us all. Amen.

By the Spirit’s help:
- We will joyfully submit to God’s Word as the final authority on all issues.
- We will regularly gather to pursue rich, gospel-centered community with each other.
- We will pursue Jesus personally and encourage the same in one another.
- We will pray for one another as we exercise affectionate care and watchfulness over each other–meeting both physical and spiritual needs as we are able.
- We will work and pray for unity, being slow to take offense, and diligently pursuing reconciliation when necessary.
- We will seek to live carefully and honorably before the world, modeling Jesus and denying ungodliness.
- We will embrace the biblical model of loving, gracious, and gentle church discipline.
- We will give joyfully, sacrificially, and regularly to support the ministry of this church and the spread of the gospel to all nations.
- We commit that, when we move from this place, we will join a like-minded church where we can carry out the spirit of this covenant.
May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with us all. Amen.
