This mutual responsibility of the Congregational
churches has characterized their system from the
beginning, distinguishing 1t from simple inde-
tendency.
With the autonomy OF the local church II is one
OF the formative and essential principles OF Con-
gregationalism. without 1t we have no basis IN
our poty for that system OF cooperative effort TO
which our churches are pledged. We regard
therefore, the principles OF fellowship when the
pastors and churches converting US have 30 ear
nestly maintained TO be those which we nave re-
ceived ron our fathers and the Word OF God.
We appreciat tie and honor their ndenty 10 these
prlncp pies under circumstances OF peculiar ana
severe trial, and we oner our earnest prayer 10
the great Head OF the Church that He may De-
SOW upon them and the pastor ana churcn WIN
which they have been In correspondence WISDOM
and grace, that He may guide them in all their &C
through these painful trials, spirit OF renewed
fidelity to the sacred obligations OF our covenants
ana our church communion; and we pray that ne
to whom all power in heaven and on earth
be with His Church always even to the end Of
the world, and who, under the inspiration OF HIS
spirit and His truth, has joined these churches In
a grand and memorable past standing shoulder TO
