We, the Church of the Crossroads,
    in response to our belief
        in love of God
        which unconditionally wills the good
            of all creation,
        and our belief that aloha
        expressed as peace and justice,
        compassion and harmony,
        is God's intention for all creation,
do hereby make covenant
        with God and with one another,
to become a Just Peace Church
        of the United Church of Christ.

We believe that,
        although we are many members,
        we are one body of Christ.
As a part of that body of Christ,
    we are called to love one another,
        to do justice, to love kindness,
        and to walk humbly with our God.

Responding to that call,
    a goal of our ministry
        is to heal the brokenness we experience
        in ourselves and
        in our relationships with the creation,
        with each other and with God. 

By the Grace of God and the guidance
        of the Holy Spirit
we pledge ourselves as a community
        to be a microcosm
        of the aloha
        God intends for the world,

by living out our life together
        in the integrity of creation,
        justice and peace;
to seek the elimination
        of the causes of war through
        nonviolent means;
to live towards the vision of a world that is free of
        economic injustice, oppression, racism,
        and sexism and
to challenge the structures that perpetuate them;

to respect the human rights of persons
    of all social and ethnic backgrounds,
physical and mental abilities,
    gender, and sexual orientations;

to maintain aloha
        as the guiding force
        for our ministry and mission. 

Believing that this is God's world,
        we pledge ourselves to carry out the vision
        of the integrity of creation,
        justice and peace.

                            March 8, 1992
