Call to Reverend Cummings
A call from the united congregations of Ebbing and Sinking Springs, on Holston's
River, Fincastle County, to be presented to the Rev. Charles Cummings, minister
of the Gospel, at the Rev'd Presbytery, of Hanover, when sitting at the Tinkling
Spring:
Worthey and Dear Sir: We being in very destitute circumstances for want of the
ordinances of Christ's house statedly administered amongst us under distressing
spiritual languishment, and multitudes perishing in our sins for want of the
bread of life broken among us; our Sabbaths too much profaned, or at least
wasted in melancholy silence at home; our hearts and hands discouraged; our
spirits broken with our mournful condition, so that human language cannot
sufficiently paint. Having had the happiness, by the good Providence of God, of
enjoying part of your labors, to our abundant satisfaction, and being
universally well satisfied by an experience of your ministerial abilities,
piety, literature, prudence, and peculiar agreeableness of your qualifications
to us in particular as a gospel minister. We do, worthey and dear sir, from our
very hearts, and with the most cordial affection and unanimity, agree to call,
invite and entreat you to undertake the office of a pastor among us, and the
care and charge of our precious souls. And upon your accepting of this, our
call, we do promise that we will receive the word of God from your mouth, attend
on your ministry, instructions and reproofs, in public and private, and submit
to the discipline which Christ has appointed in his church administered by you
while regulated by the word of God, agreeably to our confession of faith and
directory. And that you may give yourself up wholly to the important work of the
ministry, we do hereby promise to pay unto you annually the sum of ninety pounds
from the time of your accepting this, our call; and that we shall behave
ourselves toward you with all that dutiful respect and affection that becomes a
people towards their minister, using all means within our power to render your
life comfortable and happy. We entreat you, worthey and dear sir, to have
compassion upon us in this remote part of the world, and accept this our call
and invitation to the pastoral charge of our precious and immortal souls, and we
shall hold ourselves bound to pray. In witness whereof, we hereunto set our
hands, this 5th day of January, 1773.
