NAME
The
name of this organization shall be Calvary Memorial Church of Oak
Park, Illinois (Calvary Memorial Church).
COVENANT
Having
been brought by divine grace to embrace the Lord Jesus Christ and
to give ourselves wholly to Him, we do now solemnly and joyfully
covenant with each other to walk together in Him with brotherly
love to His glory as our common Lord.
We
do, therefore, in His strength promise:
That
we will commit to private and family worship and conscientiously
train our children and bring them up in the nurture and admonition
of the Lord;
That
we will be careful to encourage each other in the faith and service
of our Lord Jesus Christ;
 That
as we are the light of the world and the salt of the earth, we will
seek God's help to enable us to deny ungodliness and every worldly
lust and to walk circumspectly in the world that we may win the
souls of many;
That
we will cheerfully contribute of our means, as God has prospered
us, for the support of a faithful and evangelical ministry among
us, for the benefit of the poor, and for the spread of the gospel
over all the earth;
That
we will in all conditions, even unto death, strive to live to the
glory of Him who has called us out of darkness into His marvelous
light.
"May
the God of peace, who through the blood of the eternal covenant
brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of
the sheep, equip you with everything good for doing his will, and
may he work in us what is pleasing to him, through Jesus Christ,
to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen." Hebrews
13:20-21.
