Excerpt from Minutes of the Sixteenth Anniversary of the Lost Creek United Baptist Association, of the Primitive Order: Held at Macedonia Church, Jefferson County, Ala;, On the 14th, 16th and 17th Days of September, 1860 The above is submitted to the consideration of the household of faith, we hepe and believe in the spirit of christian love and fellowship. And while we have endeavored to contend earnestly for what seems to us a command of our blessed Lord, we hope no Brother or Sister will con strue our earnestness into a spirit of dictation or censure. On the contrary we think our hearts desire and prayer to God is for the peace, union and prosperity of Zion. May her watchmen see eye to eye, and all her inmates be of one heart and one mind. May they all be brought to harmonize in faith and in practice and as brethren live in peace abound in love to God and each other and thereby manifest their heavenly birth and parentage is the wish of yours in gospel bonds.
