The
United Church of Los
Alamos
What We Believe
The Covenant of Church Membership
Thankful for God's abundant goodness, and for His great gift of salvation through Jesus Christ, our Lord, I hereby covenant to seek to know and to do His will, and to promote as far as I can, the interest of Christ's Kingdom.Having accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as my personal Saviour, and the Bible which gives God's progressive revelation of Himself to mankind as my Supreme Standard of Faith and Practice, and heartily believing in the province of private judgment in the interpretation of the Scriptures, I seek fellowship with all who devoutly love the Lord Jesus Christ and adopt His standard of teaching and conduct as set forth in the New Testament.
Realizing that the success of the church depends upon the consecration of its individual membership, I covenant to uphold it by my prayers, to attend its services, to contribute to its support, to labor to maintain its peace and harmony, and, as far as possible, in every way to promote its temporal and spiritual welfare.
(This convenant, which all members of The United Church of Los Alamos make and sign upon joining the church, is quoted here from Article III of The United Church constitution, as ratified by the congregation on Sunday, October 19, 1947.)
