The Covenant of The Mother of God Community

It is with deep joy and gratitude, realizing the overwhelming goodness of God in giving us this opportunity, that we enter into the covenant the Lord is making with us and express acceptance of it publicly as individuals and as the Mother of God Community.  We therefore…

 

Promise and Commit: To love, support, and pray for one another as brothers and sisters in Christ. (Romans 13:8)

Promise and Commit: To conduct our relationships in the power of the Holy Spirit, to build up one another in speech, and to seek and grant forgiveness. (Col. 3:12-14)

Promise and Commit: To give ourselves in building personal relationships and to respect and honor the bonds of friendship that develop within Community. (John 15:12-17)

Promise and Commit: To set aside time each day to seek God in personal prayer and read Scripture as His revealed Word. (Ps.119:164, Luke 18:1)

Promise and Commit: To actively participate in the life of the Community.  To faithfully participate in Community Gatherings, Prayer Meetings, Share Groups, in teachings and formation and in service and outreach. (Acts 2:42-47, Heb. 10:23-25)

Promise and Commit: To dedicate one hour a week in Eucharistic Adoration of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and to attend daily Mass when possible. (Mark 14:37, Acts 2:42)

We make this covenant imploring the intercession and maternal care of

Mary, the Mother of God
