The Covenant of the First Religious Society

Love is the doctrine of this church; the quest for truth is our sacrament;
And service is our prayer.To dwell together in peace;
To seek knowledge in freedom;To serve humanity in friendship;
To the end that all souls shall grow into harmony with the Divine -
Thus do we covenant with each other and with God.
