We, the following signers of this covenant, pledge to stand, in prayer

and dependence upon God’s Spirit, for our current constitutional ordination

standards calling for “fidelity within the covenant of marriage between a man

and a woman (W-4.9001), or chastity in singleness,”

Believing:

• that our Heavenly Father provided the pattern for the covenant of marriage

in Gen. 2:24: “For this reason a man will leave his father and mother

and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh;”

• that our Lord Jesus Christ reaffirmed this divine plan (Matt. 19-5-6; Mk.

10:7-8);

• that the Apostle Paul continued calling Christ’s followers to this God-given

understanding of marriage (I Cor. 6:16; Eph. 5:31);

• that both Scripture (Acts 15:29) and our Confessions (6.131-132;

7:248-249; 9.47) teach us to honor marriage and to shun immorality;

• that the Constitution of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) presently

describes both the character of marriage (W-9.001) and the conditions for

ordained service within our Presbyterian family (G-6.0106b);

• that the recent General Assembly has once again given to our presbyteries

the privilege and obligation to confirm or deny its wisdom regarding

altering these requirements for ordained service within our Presbyterian

family; and

• that our present constitutional standards should be retained.
