BRIEF  HISTORY 


OF  THE 

IN  BOSTON. 

During  the  years  1S40  and  1841,  several  brethren  of 
the  Orthodox  Congregational  churches  in  Boston  were 
impressed  with  the  importance  of  forming  a  new  church 
in  the  city,  with  a  view  of  obtaining  the  services  of  the 
Rev.  Edward  N,  Kirk,  as  its  pastor.  These  impres- 
sions having  been  strengthened  in  the  latter  part  of  the 
year  1841,  during  a  season  of  special  religious  interest 
in  the  churches,  a  meeting  of  pastors  and  lay  brethren 
was  called  to  consider  the  subject,  December  16,  1841. 

The  following  is  a  transcript  of  the  oflicial  record  of 
that  meeting : — 

A  meeting  of  the  pastors  and  several  lay  brethren  from  the 
Orthodox  Congregational  churches  in  this  city,  was  held  at  the 
house  of  Deacon  Daniel  Sallbrd,  on  Thursday,  Dec.  16th,  1S41, 
at  3  o'clock,  P.  M.

The  meeting  was  called  to  consider  the  expediency  of  form- 
ing a  new  Orthodox  Congregational  church  in  this  citj,  and 
inviting  the  Rev.  Edward  N.  Kirk  to  become  its  pastor. 

There  were  present,  of  the  Pastors  the  Rev.  Messrs.  Aiken, 
Adams,  Winslow,  Rogers,  Blagden,  and  Towne,  and  the  Rev. 
Seth  Bliss,  Secretary  of  the  American  Tract  Society;  of  the 
lay  brethren.  Deacons  -  Samuel  T.  Armstrong,  Pliny  Cutler, 
Daniel  SafTord,  Lewis  T.  Stoddard,  Eliphalet  Kimball,  Lem- 
uel P.  Grosvenor,  N.  P.  Rogers,  Charles  Scudder,  Daniel 
Noyes,  James  Tufts,  and  Charles  Stoddard,  Messrs.  Moses  L. 
Hale,  George  W.  Crockett,  Samuel  Hubbard,  Thomas  A.  Da- 
vis, Charles  W.  Homer,  and  William  W.  Stone. 
,  Samuel  T.  Armstrong  was  called  to  preside,  and  William 
W.  Stone  to  act  as  Secretary. 

The  Rev.  N.  Adams  led  in  prayer.  The  Rev.  Mr.  Aiken 
stated  the  object  for  which  the  meeting  was  called,  and  each 
individual  present  was  requested  to  express  his  views  of  the 
proposal.  The  Rev.  Messrs.  Rogers,  Aiken,  Winslow,  Ad- 
ams, Blagden,  Towne  and  Bliss  were  unanimously  of  opinion 
that  a  new  Orthodox  Congregational  church  in  this  city  should 
be  Ibrmed  without  delay,  and  that  the  Rev.  Edward  N.  Kirk 
should  be  obtained,  if  possible,  for  its  pastor;  and  expressed 
their,  readiness  to  render  any  aid  in  their  power  towards  ac- 
complishing the  object. 

The  lay  brethren  present  unanimously  coincided  in  these 
views,  provided  satisfactory  assurances  could  be  given  that 
sufficient  funds  could  be  obtained  to  erect  a  house  of  worship. 

On  motion  of  the  Rev.  Mr.  Bliss,  a  committee  of  nine  was 
appointed  to  take  the  subject  into  consideration,  and  to  take 
such  measures  for  the  accomplishment  of  the  object,  as  they 
should  deem  expedient,  with  power  to  fill  vacancies  in  the 
committee. 

The  following  brethren  were  appointed  on  this  committee  : 
Rev.  Seth  Bliss,  Deacons  Pliny  Cutler,  Charles  Scudder, 
Charles  Stoddard,  Julius  A.  Palmer,  Daniel  SalTord,  Messrs. 
George  W.  Crockett,  Moses  L.  Hale,  and  William  W.  Stone. 

After  the  reading  of  the  above  records  by  the  Secretary 


and  their  adoption  as  the  doings  of  the  meeting,  Rev.  Mr. 
Aiken  led  in  prayer,  and  the  meeting  Avas  dissolved. 

Samuel  T.  Armstrong,  Chairman. 

William  W.  Stone,  Secretary. 

The  committee  of  nine  thus  constituted  (Messrs.  L. 
P.  Grosvenor  and  George  R.  Sampson  having  been 
substituted  for  Deacons  Cutler  and  Stoddard,  who  were 
unable  to  serve,)  held  various  meetings  from  December 
1 6th  to  the  29th  of  March  following,  for  prayer  and  con- 
sultation, in  which  the  enterprise  was  often  discussed 
in  all  its  bearings  ;  and  after  obtaining  the  names  of 
twenty-five  brethren,  Avho  professed  themselves  ready^ 
to  be  united  with  a  new  church  on  condition  that  the 
Rev.  Mr.  Kirk  should  become  its  pastor,  they  dissohx-d, 
transferring  to  these  brethren  all  their  powers  and  in- 
structions, and  commending  them  and  their  enterprise 
to  the  Great  Head  of  the  church,  and  to  the  conlidence 
and  co-operation  of  their  brethren  in  this  city.  Five  of 
this  committee  believed  that  duty  required  them  to  give 
themselves  personally  to  the  enterprise. 

During  the  months  of  April  and  May,  the  brethren 
who  had  thus  associated  themselves,  met  frequently  to 
promote  the  object  which  they  had  in  view,  and  held  a 
weekly  meeting  for  prayer.  The  Rev.  Edward  N. 
Kirk  having  signified  to  a  committee  of  the  brethren 
his  intention  to  accept  the  invitation  of  the  new  church 
to  become  its  pastor,  whenever  such  church  should  be 
formed  ;  an  Ecclesiastical  Council  was  called,  and  con- 
vened in  the  vestry  of  the  Park  Street  meeting-house, 
on  the  morning  of  W'cdiicsdav,  June  ist,  1842,  when 
twenty-five  brethren  and  twenty-two  sisters,  who  at 


their  own  request  were  dismissed  from  their  several 
churches  for  the  purpose,  were  regularly  organized  into 
a  church. 

The  consecrating  prayer  was  offered  by  the  Rev. 
William  Jenks,  D.  D.,  pastor  of  the  Green  Street 
church  in  Boston,  and  the  fellowship  of  the  churches 
expressed  by  the  Rev.  William  M.  Rogers  of  the  Cen- 
tral church. 

The  churches  represented  in  this  council,  were  all 
the  Orthodox  Congregational  churches  in  the  county  of 
Suffolk  ;  second  church  in  Dorchester  ;  Mercer  Street 
Church  in  New  York  city  ;  First  church  in  Maiden  ; 
Evangelical  Congregational  church  in  Cambridgeport ; 
Eliot  church  in  Roxbury  ;  First  Congregational  church 
in  Charlestown  ;  Winthrop  church  in  Charlestown  ; 
First  church  in  Cambridge. 

Upon  the  same  day  the  Rev.  Edward  N.  Kirk  was 
invited  by  the  new  church  to  become  its  2')astor ;  and 
having  accepted  the  invitation,  was  installed  in  the  af- 
ternoon by  the  Ecclesiastical  Council  called  to  organize 
the  church. 

At  a  meeting  of  the  brethren  holden  upon  the  eve- 
ning of  June  ist,  1842,  Thomas  Adams,  Daniel  Safford, 
Julius  A.  Palmer,  and  Marshall  S.  Scudder  were  cho- 
sen Deacons  of  the  church. 

The  church  held  its  first  public  religious  exercise  in 
the  Old  South  Chapel,  which  was  generously  tendered 
for  its  use  by  the  Old  South  Society,  upon  Sabbath,  June 
5th,  when  the  Lord's  Supper  was  administered,  and  sev- 
eral infant  children  received  the  ordinance  of  baptism. 

On  the  19th  day  of  June,  1842,  public  worship  was 
commenced  in  the  Lecture  Room  of  the  Masonic  Tom- 


pie,  and  continued  there  until  the  31st  of  December, 

1843. 

The  first  meeting  with  reference  to  the  erection  of  a 
house  of  worship  was  convened  January  3d,  1S43,  by 
a  public  notice  from  the  pulpit  on  the  preceding  Sab- 
bath. At  this  meeting  it  was  determined,  after  delib- 
eration and  prayer,  that  the  time  had  arrived  when 
we  were  called,  in  the  providence  of  God,  to  go  for- 
ward and  erect  another  sanctuary  for  His  worship.  A 
subscription  was  accordingly  commenced  for  the  pur- 
pose, and  subsequently  the  following  gentlemen  were 
elected  a  Building  Committee,  with  full  power  to  select 
the  location  and  erect  the  building,  to  wit:  —  George 
W.  Crockett,  William  W.  Stone,  Daniel  SafTord,  John 
Slade,  Jr.,  Roland  Cutler,  Freeman  L.  Cushman,  and 
George  F.  Homer. 

After  many  ineffectual  attempts  to  obtain  a  situation 
combining  the  requisite  advantages,  the  committee  in 
the  month  of  May  succeeded  in  contracting  for  an  es- 
tate on  the  north  side  of  Somerset  Court,  now  Asiibur- 
TON  Place,  a  site  unequalled  perhaps  by  any  in  the 
city  for  the  purpose,  considering  its  quiet  location,  and 
its  advantages  for  ventilation  and  light. 

On  the  33d  of  June,  1843,  the  church  voted  to  as- 
sume the  name  of  Mount  Vernon  Congregational 
Church,"  adopting  the  name  by  which  the  western  sec- 
tion of  the  hill  on  whicli  the  building  is  erected  has 
long  been  known. 

.  The  corner-stone  was  laid  on  the  morning  of  July  4th, 
1843,  on  which  occasion  an  appropriate  address  was 
delivered  by  the  pastor,  and  the  Rev.  Lyman  Bcccher, 
D.  D.,  led  in  prayer.

On  the  7th  of  September,  1843,  the  stockholders  met 
pursuant  to  a  warrant  duly  issued  by  a  justice  of  the 
peace,  and  were  organized  into  a  Corporation  accord- 
ing to  law,  by  the  passage  of  the  necessary  votes,  and 
the  appointment  of  Standing  Committees. 

The  following  articles  were  adopted  as  the  basis  of 
union  between  the  church  and  society  : — 

*'The  following  plan  of  organization  is  hereby  adopted  by 
the  Mount  Vernon  Congregational  Society,  which  shall  be 
permanent,  and  to  the  several  articles  of  which  all  deeds  of 
pews  shall  be  made  subject: 

I.  Whenever  the  church  and  society  shall  be  destitute  of 
a  settled  j^astor,  a  joint  committee  of  the  church  and  society, 
consisting  of  nine  persons,  of  whom  five  shall  be  chosen  by 
the  church  and  four  by  the  society,  shall  supply  the  pulpit, 
and  adopt  all  measures  necessary  to  that  end.  Temporary 
supplies  of  the  pulpit,  during  the  absence  or  sickness  of  the 
pastor,  shall  be  provided  by  the  pastor  and  deacons  of  the 
church,  and  the  bills  of  expense  necessarily  incurred  for  that 
purpose,  shall  be  submitted  to  the  Standing  or  Prudential 
Committee,  and  when  approved  by  them  shall  be  paid  by  the 
Treasurer. 

II.  The  church  shall  have  the  right  to  select  the  pastor 
or  colleague  pastor,  (whenever  the  church  and  society  shall 
deem  it  expedient  to  have  a  colleague  pastor,)  to  be  proposed 
to  the  society  for  their  concurrence.  If  such  selection  is  ap- 
proved by  the  society,  a  joint  call  from  the  church  and  society 
bhall  be  extended  the  person  selected;  but  in  case  of  non-con- 
currence, the  church  shall  select  until  the  society  concur; 
when  a  joint  call  as  above  shall  be  given  to  the  person  so  se- 
lected and  approved. 

'*III.  The  amount  of  salary  to  be  paid  to  the  pastor,  or 
colleague  pastor,  shall  be  fixed  by  the  society.

"IV.  By  the  word  churchy  hereinbefore  used,  is  meant 
male  members  of  the  church  of  the  age  of  twenty-one  years 
and  upwards." 

The  house  having  been  completed  on  thevith  of  Jan- 
uary, 1844,  just  six  months  from  the  day  on  which  the 
corner-stone  was  laid,  it  was  solemnly  dedicated  to  the 
worship  of  Ahnighty  God.  The  pastor  was  assisted  in 
the  services  of  the  o'ccasion  by  the  Rev.  Messrs.  Adams, 
Winslow,  Rogers,  Aiken,  Bhigden  and  Jenks. 

The  dimensions  of  the  building  are  75  feet  by  97,  con- 
taining 1 20  pews  on  the  lower  floor,  and  50  in  the  gal- 
lery, in  which  1200  persons  maybe  comfortably  seated. 
The  basement  story  contains,  besides  the  several  com- 
mittee rooms,  a  commodious  chapel,  68  feet  long  by  48 
feet  wide,  and  fifteen  feet  high,  which  accommodates 
600  persons  with  seats. 

This  church  at  its  organization  consisted  of  47  mem- 
bers. Since  that  time  there  have  been  added  1596,  of 
whom  919  were  from  other  churches,  and  677  by  pro- 
fession.    The  present  membership  is  542. 

The  ordinance  of  baptism  has  been  administered  to 
197  adults  and  446  children. 

No  record  of  contributions  for  benevolent  objects  was 
kept  previous  to  the  dedication  of  this  house.  Since 
that  time,  a  period  of  28  years,  there  has  been  contrib- 
uted, (in  addition  to  $60,000  for  the  erection  of  the 
house,  and  the  ordinary  current  expenses,  the  sum  of 
$295,417.48,  varying  from  $3,975.90,  the  lowest,  to 
$19,477.46  the  highest,  in  any  one  year. 

On  the  3d  of  Fcl)ruary,  1S56,  it  pleased  the  Great 
Head  of  the  Church  to  call  to  his  heavenly  home  Dea- 


lO 


con  Daniel  Safford,  who,  next  to  the  pastor,  had 
been  our  leader  from  the  commencement  of  the  enter- 
prise. 

In  commemoration  of  the  event,  the  church  placed 
upon  its  records  the  following  Preamble  and  Resolves  : 

*'  It  having  pleased  the  Wise  Disposer  of  all  events  to  remove  from  the 
church  on  earth  our  senior  Deacon,  the  late  Hon.  Daniel  Saffokd,  tlie 
surviving  members,  with  a,deep  sense  of  an  irreparable  loss,  adopt  the  fol- 
lowing Resolves  : — 

"I,  That  we  bow  submissively  to  the  divine  will,  under  this  afflictive 
dispensation,  which  has  deprived  us  of  an  honored  leader,  and  a  beloved 
brother,  while  we  devoutly  acknowledge  our  obligations  to  the  Giver  of  all 
good,  who  placed  him  here  as  one  of  the  original  members,  and  continued 
him  as  '  a  burning  and  a  shining  light'  to  the  end  of  his  mortal  life. 

"  II,  That  we  appreciate  his  example  and  influence  in  all  that  was  noble 
and  praiseworthy,  and  would  cherish  a  grateful  remembrance  of  his  wise 
counsels,  liberal  contributions  and  unceasing  labors  Tor  our  welfare,  and 
also  of  tlie  kindness  and  aflectionate  sjnipathy  ever  manifested  towards  us, 
both  as  a  private  member  and  oflicer  of  the  church." 

The  preceding  resolutions  were  moved  by  the  Hon. 
George  W.  Crockett,  who  had  been  intimately  associ- 
ated with  Deacon  Saflbrd  in  the  labors  and  sacrifices 
which  resulted  in  the  establishment  of  this  religious  so- 
ciety. On  the  14th  of  August,  1859,  called 
to  go  up  higher  in  the  kingdom  of  our  Lord,  and  has 
entered,  as  we  trust,  upon  the  reward  of  "a  good  and 
faithful  servant."  Brother  Crockett  was  the  chairman 
of  the  Committee  who  built  the  meeting-house,  and 
who  had  superintended  the  society's  linancial  ailairs 
from  its  organization  to  the  time  of  his  death,  a  period 
of  sixteen  years. 

To  his  prudence,  judgment,  practical  wisdom  and  ef- 
ficient skill  in  executing  the  pecimiary  measures  of  the 
enterprise,  we  arc  greatly  indebted  for  tlie  successfid 


II 

plans  and  financial  prosperity  by  which  we  have  been 
favored  from  tlie  beginning. 

In  December,  1856,  the  Tastor  left  Tioston  on  a  mis- 
sion to  Paris,  France,  by  request  of  the  American  and 
Foreign  Christian  Union,  to  superintend  the  establish- 
ment of  American  Protestant  worship  in  that  capital, 
and  the  erection  of  a  chapel.  He  returned  September 
1857,  having  successfully  accomplished  the  work  which 
was  the  object  of  his  voyage. 

The  early  members  of  the  church  will  always  cherish 
the  memory  of  Brother  Albert  Hobart,  as  remark- 
able for  the  punctuality  and  constancy  of  his  attendance 
upon  all  its  meetings,  the  fidelity  with  which  he  sought 
to  promote  its  interests,  and  the  accuracy  and  neatness 
with  which  he  kept  its  records.  On  the  15th  day  of 
January,  1867,  he  w^as  called  to  bid  adieu  to  earth,  and 
as  an  ex^Dression  of  the  feelings  of  the  church,  the  fol- 
lowing resolution  was  adopted  : — 

"That  in  view  of  the  recent  death  of  Brother  Albert  Hobart,  one  of 
the  original  members  of  this  church,  for  many  years  its  efficient  Clerk  and 
Treasurer,  and  to  the  end  of  his  life  one  of  the  Church  Committee,  the  Mt. 
Vernon  Church  desire  to  place  upon  record  their  sense  of  the  loss  which 
they  have  experienced  in  the  removal  from  earthly  activity  of  their  much- 
esteemed  brother,  and  their  grjititude  to  God  for  having  so  long  continued  his 
Christian  usefulness,  and  for  having  enabled  liim  to  honor  his  profession  by 
an  uniformly  exemplary  and  consistent  character." 

June  I  St,  1867,  being  the  twenty-fifth  anniversary  of 
the  organization  of  the  church,  and  tlie  installation  of 
its  pastor,  was  approjDriately  observed  by  a  reunion  of 
the  past  and  present  members.  Meetings  were  held  in 
the  afternoon  and  evening,  at  which  grateful  acknowl- 


t 


12 


edgments  were  made  of  the  favor  of  God,  as  manifested 
in  our  history,  and  pleasant  reminiscences  were  indulged 
of  bygone  days,  and  touching  allusions  made  to  those  of 
our  number  who  had  left  us  either  for  other  fields  of 
usefulness  on  earth  or  for  more  exalted  privileges  in 
heaven. 

The  health  of  Rev.  Dr.  Kirk  having  been  impaired 
for  several  months,  on  the  first  of  Sept.,  1S69,  he  sent 
the  following  communication  to  the  church  and  society  ; 

*^Dear  Brethren  and  Friends: 

have  anxiously  awaited  the  test  of  time  to  determine 
the  will  of  God  concerning  my  future  course.  My  own  expe- 
,  rience  confirms,  at  length,  the  judgment  of  my  medical  friends 
that,  in  justice  to  the  Lord  whom  I  serve,  to  the  people  so 
dear  to  me,  to  the  cause  I  have  supremely  at  lieart,  I  can  no 
longer  bear  the  responsibility  of  acting  pastor  of  Mt.  Vernon 
church.  You  imperatively  need  a  leader  in  the  full  possession 
of  all  his  powers,  mental  and  bodily.  I  ask  not  a  dismission 
from  the  pastoral  olHce,  but  from  its  cares,  duties  and  emolu- 
ments. Choose,  then,  a  man  of  God,  competent  to  take  the 
entire  charge  of  the  church.  Let  him  understand  that  I  shall 
be,  in  fact,  his  assistant,  and  ready  to  render  every  aid  in  my 
power.  I  do  not  ask  for  a  severance  of  the  tie  that  now  so 
happily  unites  us,  because  I  have  no  desire  to  form  any  other 
connection. 

*' Whatever  my  future  relations  to  you  may  be,  my  heart 
shall  ever  revert,  with  thankfulness  to  God,  to  the  memories 
of  the  past;  and  my  desire  and  prayer  will  ever  be  for  your 
prosperity  as  a  church,  for  the  presence  of  God  in  your  dwel- 
lings, and  for  your  eternal  salvation,  through  our  Lord  Jesus 
Christ.  May  you  receive  a  baptism  of  the  spirit  of  grace  and 
supplication  for  the  present  important  crisis  in  the  history  of 
our  beloved  church  ;  and  may  grace,  mercy  and  peace  be  with 
you  .evermore, 

"Your  affectionate  pastor, 

"Edward  N.  Kirk."

At  a  united  meeting  of  the  church  and  society,  held 
on  the  34th  of  the  same  month,  the  following  resolutions 
were  adopted  by  a  unanimous  vote  : — 

"  I.  That  the  letter  of  our  pastor,  Rev.  Dr.  Kirk,  statingf  that  the  con- 
dition of  his  health  compels  him  to  change  his  oflicial  relation  to  tliis  church 
and  society  as  its  pastor,  has  filled  all  our  hearts  witli  the  most  sincere  re- 
gret. 

"  II.  That  we  are  deeply  grateful  to  a  kind  Providence  for  the  harmoni- 
ous relations  which  have,  without  interruption,  existed  between  our  pastor 
and  this  church  and  society  from  its  foundation,  aud  that  his  faithful,  able, 
and  devoted  ministrations,  for  so  long  a  period,  have  awakened  towards  him 
feelings  of  tlie  highest  respect  and  affectionate  regard. 

"  III.  That  under  this  dispensation  of  Divine  I*rovidence,  which  for  the 
present  deprives  him  of  the  hallowed  privilege  of  preaching  the  unsearchable 
riches  of  Christ,  we  ofTej  to  him  our  tenderest  sympathies;  and  that  we  ear- 
nestly pray  that  his  physical  energies  may  be  so  fully  restored  that  we  may 
be  permitted  again  and  often  to  listen  to  his  voice  of  admonition,  of  exhorta- 
tion, and  of  prayer,  and  that  he  may  yet  be  enabled,  under  the  continued  di- 
vine blessing  and  guidance,  to  lead  many  souls  to  the  Saviour." 

On  the  1 2th  of  April,  1S71,  a  unanimous  call  of  the 
church  and  society  having  been  extended  to  Rev,  Sam- 
uel E.  IIerrick,  he  was  installed  as  associate  pastor 
with  Rev.  Dr.  Kirk. 

After  preaching  a  few  weeks, ^  agreeably  to  an  ar- 
rangement made  before  his  installation,  he  visited  Eu- 
rope, and  was  absent  about  four  months,  during  which 
time  extensive  repairs  and  improvements  were  made  in 
our  house  of  worship). 

On  the  14th  of  March,  1872,  Deacon  Julius  A. 
Palmer,  an  honored  ollicer  of  the  church  from  its  or- 
ganization, whose  health  had  been  declining  for  several 
years,  was  transferred  from  the  cliin-ch  militant  to  the 
church  triumphant. 


In  view  of  this  bereavement,  the  following  Preamble 
and  Resolutions  were  adopted  by  the  church  : — 

"Whereas,  it  has  pleased  our  Heavenly  Father  to  remove  by  death  our. 
honored  and  esteemed  brother  in  Christ,  Deacon  Julius  A.  Palmer  : 

"Resolved,  I.'  lliat  this  church  bows  in  humble  submission  to  His 
will  who  alone  can  determine  the  best  time  when,  and  the  circumstances  un- 
der which,  His  children  may  be  transferred  from  this  sphere  of  duties,  of 
trials,  and  of  joys,  to  that  upper  sanctuary  where  tears  shall  be  wiped  from 
all  eyes,  and  there  shall  be  no  more  death. 

"II.  That  we  gratefully  recognize  the  eminent  usefulness  of  our  late 
brother  and  fellow-Christian,  as  one  of  the  original  founders  of  this  church, 
whose  sound  judgment  and  wisdom  have  often  been  illustrated  in  its  past 
history,  and  whose  life  and  character  furnish  an  example  not  only  of  consci- 
entious devotion  to  the  discharge  of  his  duties  as  one  of  its  olTicers,  but  also 
in  the  diversified  relations  of  society.  Honorable  in  liis  commercial  life,  and 
in  the  performance  of  his  public  duties  as  a  citizen,  intelligent  and  affable 
as  a  friend,  amiable  and  affectionate  in  the  domestic  circle,  faithful  to  the 
trust  of  the  widow  and  fatherless,  and  a  humble  follower  of  the  Lord  Jesus 
Christ,  whose  cause  he  earnestly  endeavored  to  promote,  we  may  well  seek 
to  emulate  his  example." 

Mount  Vernon  Church  has  contributed  greatly  to  the 
strength  and  prosperity  of  other  churches,  in  suburban 
cities  and  towns,  having  dismissed  and  recommended 
to  them  a  large  number  who  have  become  pastOrs,  dea- 
cons and  efficient  members. 

In  reviewing  the  way  in  which  the  Lord  has  led  us, 
the  many  tokens  of  his  favor  we  have  received  during 
the  thirty  years  of  our  existence  as  a  church,  while  we 
raise  our  "  Ebenezer,  saying.  Hitherto  hath  the  Lord 
helped  us,"  it  becomes  us  gratefully  and  humbly  to  con- 
secrate ourselves  anew  to  His  sei-vice,  relying  upon  the 
presence  and  power  of  the  Spirit  to  give  us  continued 
and  increasing  prosperity.

ECCLESIASTICAL  PRINCIPLES  AND  RULES. 

(Adopted  June  23,  1S42.) 

Rights  of  the  Chttrch, — This  church  is  indepen- 
dent so  far  as  relates  to  its  internal  organization  and  the 
regulation  of  its  affairs.  It  is  amenable  to  no  other 
ecclesiastical  body,  unless  by  its  own  consent,  or  accord- 
ing to  regular  and  established  Congregational  princi- 
ples. With  these  limitations,  it  controls  the  admission, 
discipline,  and  removal  of  its  members,  according  to  its 
own  understanding  of  the  word  of  God. 

Connection  with  other  Churches, — This  church  will 
extend  to  other  Evangelical  Congregational  churches, 
and  receive  from  them  that  fellowship,  advice,  and 
assistance,  which  the  law  of  Christ  requires.  It  will 
extend  the  usual  rights  of  communion,  and  practise  the 
usual  transfer  of  members,  according  to  its  own  convic- 
tions of  duty.  It  holds  itself  bound  to  regard  the  decis- 
ions of  mutual  councils,  and  to  seek  the  promotion  of 
peace  with  all  the  churches  of  our  I^ord. 

Officers. — The  oflicers  oi  the  church  shall  be  the  Pas- 
tor or  Pastors,  and  Deacons.  To  the  pastor  pertains  the 
3 


i8 


office  of  Moderator.  Jt  shall  be  the  duty  of  the  deacons 
to  preside  in  the  absence  of  the  pastor,  in  rotation  ;  to 
assist  in  the  administration  of  the  Lord's  Supper  ;  to  dis- 
tribute the  charities  of  the  church  ;  to  aid  the  pastor 
generally  in  the  spiritual  care  of  the  flock ;  and,  in  his 
absence,  to  provide  a  supply  for  the  pulpit.  The  number 
of  the  deacons  shall  be  fixed  by  the  church  as  its  inter- 
ests from  time  to  time  may  require,  and  no  person  shall 
hold  the  office  more  than  six  years  without  a  re-election. 
At  every  annual  meeting  there  shall  be  an  election  of  one 
deacon,  it  being  understood  that  the  term  of  one  incum- 
bent shall  expire  annually,  according  to  seniority  of  ap- 
pointment. 

Admission  a?id  Iransfcr  of  Afc7nbers. — The  church  will 
examine  all  applicants  for  admission.  It  will  grant  dis- 
missions to  its  members  in  regular  standing,  on  their  ap- 
plication in  writing,  and  recommend  them  to  the  fellow- 
ship of  other  churches.  All  such  applications  to  be 
referred  to  the  church  committee,  when  presented,  to  be 
reported  upon  at  the  next  succeeding  meeting  of  the 
church.  3'Iembers  removing  from  the  city,  or  who  from 
other  cause  may  cease  to  worship  with  this  church  shall 
be  required  to  obtain  their  dismission  within  one  year 
thereafter,  unless  circumstances  be  such  as  to  render  an 
union  with  any  other  church  inexpedient;  and  in  such 
case  they  shall  inform  the  church  why  they  have  not  re- 
quested a  removal  of  their  connection.  It  is  expected 
that  members  of  other  churches  who  may  wish  to  com- 
mune w^ith  this  church  for  more  than  one  year,  will  re- 
quest a  dismission  from  their  respective  churches  and  an 
admission  to  this  church,  unless  they  give  satisfactory 
reasons  for  delay  to  the  church  committee. 


19 


Rights  of  Members. — Every  member  has  a  right  to 
church  privileges,  unless  forfeited  by  misconduct ;  and 
wlien  thus  forfeited,  he  can  be  deprived  of  them  only  by 
regular  process.  The  presentation  of  complaints  shall 
in  all  cases  be  first  made  in  writing  to  the  church  com- 
mittee, whose  duty  thereupon  it  shall  be  to  secure,  if 
practicable,  an  amicable  and  scriptui^il  adjustment  of  the 
matters  complained  of,  and  failing  in  this,  to  report  the 
same  to  the  church.  When  a  member  is  accused,  he 
shall  be  seasonably  furnished  with  a  copy  of  the  com- 
plaint, and  shall  have  a  full  hearing.  While  the  trial  is 
pending,  the  accused  is  expected  to  abstain  from  partici- 
pating in  the  Lord's  Supper. 

Duties  of  the  ChurcJi  cvid  its  Members. — It  is  the  duty 
of  the  members  to  attend  such  stated  meetings  as  are 
appointed  by  a  vote  of  the  church,  unless  providentially 
prevented.  Any  member  having  cause  of  complaint 
against  another,  should  immediately  seek  to  have  it  re- 
moved in  a  Christian  manner ;  the  directions  given  in 
Matt,  xviii.,  15,  16,  being  his  guide,  especially  in  cases 
of  personal  ofl^ence.  Any  member  wishing  to  withdraw 
from  this  church  and  to  unite  with  another,  should  signify 
his  wishes  and  his  reasons,  and  apply  in  a  proper  spirit  to 
be  first  released  from  his  obiigadons  to  this  church.  .Vny 
other  mode  of  withdrawal  will  be  deemed  irregular  and 
censurable  ;  and  this  church  holds  itself  bound  to  grant 
its  members  in  regular  standing  dismissions  and  recom- 
mendations to  churches  not  only  of  our  own,  but  of  any 
other  evangelical  denomination. 

,  Censurable  Offences. — This  church  considers  immoral 
conduct,  breach  of  express  covenant  vows,  neglect  of  ac- 
knowledged religious  or  relative  (huies,  and  avowed  (lis- 


20 


belief  of  the  articles  of  faith  to  which  the  members  have 
.assented,  as  offences  subject  to  the  censure  of  the 
church. 

Censures, — The  censures  inflicted  on  offenders  are, 
private  reproof,  public  admonition,  or  excommunication, 
according  to  the  aggravation  of  the  offence.  If  a  person 
not  otherwise  censurable,  separates  irregularly  from  the 
church,  or  walks  disorderly,  the  church  may  withdraw 
from  him  its  watch  and  care,  by  which  act  he  shall  cease 
to  be  a  member  thereof.  In  case  of  excommunication, 
or  of  withdrawal  of  watch  and  care,  notice  shall  be  given 
from  the  pulpit  on  the  Sabbath. 

Alterations. — No  alteration  shall  be  made  in  the  '^Con- 
fession of  Faith,"  Covenant,''  ^'  Standing  Rules,"  or 
"  Ecclesiastical  Principles  and  Rules  "  of  this  church,  ex- 
cept by  a  two-thirds  vote,  at  a  meeting  regularly  notified 
for  the  purpose,  of  which  meeting  pubhc  notice  shall  be 
given  from  the  pulpit  on  the  two  preceding  Sabbaths.

prove. They  shall  also  present  to  the  church  at  each 
annual  meeting,  a  statistical  report  of  the  condition  of  its 
membership,  together  with  such  information,  in  reference 
thereto,  as  they  may  deem  expedient.  If  the  committee 
have  been  unable  to  ascertain  the  residence  of  any  of  the

ing; and  after  having  been  thus  reported  for  three  con- 
secutive years,  without  hearing  from  them,  their  names

ADMISSION  TO  THE 
ADDRESS. 


CHURCH. 


I 


Beloved  Friends  : 

In  uniting  with  this  church,  you  avow  an  agreement 
with  its  belief  of  the  Christian  doctrines,  and  enter  into 
a  special  covenant  with  its  members.  \Vq  will  therefore 
.  now  ask  the  expression  of  your  assent  to  that  Confession 
of  Faith  and  Covenant  which  have  been  adopted  as  the 
symbol  and  bond  of  our  fellowship. 
Hear  then  the 


CONFESSION  OF  FAITH. 


We  believe- 
That  the  Scriptures  of  the  Old  and  New  Testaments 
were  given  by  the  inspiration  of  God,  and  are  the  perfect 
and  only  infallible  revelation  to  mankind  of  religious 
doctrine  and  duty. 

And  we  believe  that  they  teach  us  these  great  doc- 
'trines — 

That  there  is  but  one  God,  a  Spirit,  infinite  in  all  nat- 

4 


26 


ural  and  moral  perfections,  existing  as  Father,  Son  and 
Holy  Ghost ;  and  that  these  Three  are  One,  and  in  all 
Divine  attributes  equal. 

That  He  made  the  Heavens  and  the  earth,  and  all 
things  therein,  which  He  preserves  and  governs,  for  the 
accomplishing  of  His  own  most  wise  and  holy  purposes. 

That  man  was  made  in  the  divine  image ;  but  that 
since  the  first  transgression,  all  men  have  lost  that  im- 
age, and  are  by  nature  without  holiness,  and  alienated 
from  God. 

That  it  is  only  by  the  effect  of  a  free  and  sovereign 
purpose  of  God,  and  by  the  power  of  the  Holy  Spirit, 
that  any  are  restored  to  holiness  and  the  divine  favor, 
and  secured  to  eternal  life. 

That  the  Son  of  God  became  incarnate,  and  by  His 
obedience,  sufferings  and  death  upon  the  cross,  the  just 
for  the  unjust,  made  a  complete  atonement,  which  forms 
the  only  ground  of  the  forgiveness  of  sin. 

That  salvation  is  fully,  freely,  sincerely,  and  earnestly 
offered  to  all  men,  on  the  conditions  of  repentance  to- 
ward God,  and  faith  in  our  Lord  Jesus  Christ. 

That  Christ  has  instituted  an  external  and  visible 
church,  whose  sealing  ordinances  to  the  end  of  time  are 
baptism  and  the  Lord's  Supper ;  that  baptism  is  to  be 
administered  to  all  who  make  a  credible  profession  of 
their  faith,  and  to  their  infant  children  ;  that  the  Lord's 
Supper  is  to  be  administered  to  those  who  profess  to  have 
been  renewed  by  the  Holy  Spirit. 

That  there  will  be  a  resurrection  of  all  the  dead,  both 
just  and  unjust. 

That  all  must  stand  before  the  judgment-seat  of  Christ, 
and  receive  a  sentence  of  retribution,  according  to  tlie 


27 


deeds  done  in  the  body and  that  the  wicked  will  go  in- 
to punishment,  and  the  righteous  into  life  ;  both  of  which 
states  will  be  without  end. 

This  you  severally  profess  to  believe. 

Attend  then  to  the 

COVENANT. 

In  the  presence  of  God  and  this  assembly,  you  do  now 
solemnly  avouch  the  Lord  Jehovah,  Father,  Son  and 
Holy  Ghost,  to  be  your  God,  the  supreme  object  of  your 
affection,  and  your  portion  forever.  You  cordially  ac- 
knowledge the  Lord  Jesus  Christ  to  be  your  Redeemer, 
and  the  Holy  Spirit  to  be  your  Sanctifier,  Comforter  and 
Guide.  You  cheerfully  devote  yourselves  to  God  in  the 
everlasting  covenant  of  His  grace,  consecrating  all  your 
powers  and  faculties  to  His  service  and  glory;  and  you 
promise,  that  through  the  assistance  of  His  Spirit,  you 
will  cleave  to  Him  as  your  chief  good ;  that  you  will  give 
diligent  attendance  to  His  word  and  ordinances  ;  that 
you  will  seek  the  honor  and  interest  of  His  kingdom ; 
and  that  henceforth,  denying  all  ungodliness  and  every 
worldly  lust,  you  will  live  soberly,  righteously  and  godly 
in  the  world. 

[If  any  of  you  have  not  been  baptized,  you  will  now  come 
forward  and  receive  the  ordinance. 

Those  of  you  who  were  baptized  in  childhood,  do  hereby 
recognize  that  baptism  as  the  seal  of  this  covenant,  confirm- 
ing to  you  its  promises,  and  binding  you  to  all  its  obliga- 
tions.] 

While  you  acknowledge  yourselves  to  be  members  of 


28 


the  whole  body  of  Christ  called  the  church  universal,  you 
do  now  cordially  connect  yourselves  with  this  church  in 
a  more  direct  and  special  union,  engaging  to  submit  to 
the  rules  of  government  and  discipline  which  it  has  adopt- 
ed ;  to  strive  earnestly  for  its  peace,  edification  and  pu- 
rity; and  to  walk  with  its  members  in  charity,  faithful- 
ness, circumspection,  meekness  and  sobriety. 

If,  in  consequence  of  change  of  residence,  or  from  other 
cause,  you  should  cease  to  worship  with  us,  you  engage 
to  seek  a  transfer  of  membership  to  another  church,  as 
soon  as  you  may  be  able. 

Into  this  covenant  you  severally  enter. 

[This  church  recognizes  the  membership  in  Christ's  visible 
church  of  those  who  belong  to  other  branches  of  it.  But 
deeming  it  highly  proper  that  there  should  be  a  distinct  rec- 
ognition of  the  ti-ansfcr  of  the  relation,  of  those  who  arc  now 
to  luiite  with  us  from  other  churches,  you  are  requested  ,  to 
rise  as  your  nanies  are  called. 

Do  you  express  your  assent  to  the  Confession  of  Faith  and 
the  Covenant  wliich  have  now  been  read.''] 

In  consequence  of  these  professions  and  promises,  we* 
affectionately  receive  you  to  our  communion,  and  in  the 
name  of  Christ  declare  you  entitled  to  all  the  privileges 
of  membership  in  this  branch  of  His  church.  We  wel- 
come you  to  this  fellowship  with  us  in  the  blessings  of 
the  Gospel ;  and  on  our  part  engage  to  watch  over  you 
in  Christian  affection,  and  to  seek  your  edification  so  long 
as  you  continue  to  be  with  us. 

And  may  we  prove  together  in  this  new  connection, 
the  fulness  of  that  blessing  which  our  Lord  has  promised 

*Thc  mcnibcry  of  this  clmrch. 


to  them  that  are  in  covenant  with  Him  ;  may  His  richest 
grace  rest  upon  you  to  the  end  of  your  pilgrimage  ;  and 
at  last  may  an  entrance  be  ministered  unto  us  abundant- 
ly into  the  everlasting  kingdom  of  our  Lord  and  Saviour 
Jesus  Christ. 

Now  UNTO  Him  that  is  able  to  keep  you  from 

FALLING,  AND  TO  PRESENT  YOU  FAULTLESS  BEFORE  THE 
PRESENCE  OF  HiS  GLORY  WITH  EXCEEDING  JOY,  TO 
THE    ONLY    WISE    GOD    OUR    SaVIOUR    EE    GLORY  AND 

majesty,  dominion  and  power,  both  now  and  ever. 
Amen.
