I have read and understand the information provided in the James River College Covenant Agreement.*

Whereas membership in a local church is predicated upon membership in the body of Christ, leadership in the local church is based upon biblical qualifications, personal character, and commitment. The Bible mandates a higher standard for those who lead in the body of Christ (1 Tim 3:1-13; Titus 1:5-9). I understand that, as a leader, I will lay down some liberties so as not to be a stumbling block to anyone (Rom 14:1-23; 15:1-7).

As a leader in the James River Church family, I commit myself to God and to the body of Christ to be an example in the following areas:
• I agree to daily cultivate an intimate relationship with God through prayer, Bible study, and a lifestyle of worship (Romans 12:1-2).
• I agree to faithfully attend and/or serve every Sunday service.
• I agree to faithfully attend and/or serve every Wednesday service.
• I will attend services sitting in the first 5 rows prepared with Bible, notebook, and pen, to engage and support my leaders.
• I agree to support all ministries of the church in word, attitude, with my talents, treasure, and in regular prayer.
• I agree to give my loyalty and every effort to promote and maintain the unity of the church in all matters supporting the Lead Pastor and all church leadership (Ephesians 4:1-16).
• I agree to respect and honor James River College, Church leadership, and the Embassy Apartments Staff with my attitude, speech, and conduct.
• I agree to abstain from the use of tobacco products, vaping, alcohol as a beverage, and from drugs, except for medicinal purposes.
• I agree NOT to attend night clubs or entertainment venues where entrance requires one to be 21 years of age.
• I agree to abstain from watching “R” rated movies, “MA” TV shoes, playing “M” rated games, or anything equivalent to adult content.
• I agree to abstain from any immoral sexual behavior.
• I agree to protect my integrity by never meeting alone with a member of the opposite sex in an apartment, home, or hotel room.
• I agree to protect my integrity by avoiding theft of intellectual property, i.e. plagiarizing, cheating on assignments or examinations, or claiming the work of AI as my own.
• I agree to prepare myself professionally and spiritually for class and ministry each day.
• I agree to dress in a manner that aligns with the James River College and Church Dress Code.
• I agree to protect my integrity, the integrity of James River Church, and College by what I communicate via social media and whom I choose to engage and follow.
