OF THE
WESTCHESTER CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH
AS WRITTEN AND SIGNED
DECEMBER 17, 1728
We, whose names are here unto subscribed apprehending it to be our indispensable duty to comply with the calls of Christ who not
withstanding our great unwillingness and sinful nature, is graciously inviting us to partake of the covenant of Grace both in the
internal and external privileges of it, under a deep sense of our vileness, unworthyness, and insufficiency of ourselves to any good
work depending upon the grace of Christ for assistance and the mercy of God through him for acceptance as we have obtained help
from God. We do vouch for the Lord Jehovah, Father, Son and Holy Ghost to be our Redeemer and sanctifier and the portion
of our souls forever. Giving up ourselves to the Lord and one another by the will of God promising to walk together as Brethren
in the faith and fellowship of the Gospel to watch over one another with a spirit of meekness, love and tenderness, striving
together against sin and to observe all the ordinances of Christ in his word, pure and entire conscientiously attending andupholding
the public worship of God in the place; submittingourselves to the dicipline of his Kingdom in the world; we do also give up our
children to the Lord, promising to bring them up in the "nurture and admonition of the Lord". All this we do, flying to the Blood of
the everlasting covenant for the pardon and cleansing; Begging that he wouldmake us steadfast in the Holy Covenant unto the end.
That so we may obtain the blessings of it.
AMEN
