Statements and Vows
The material on this page is to help you decide what you want to do with Promise Statements or Vows. There will be several more options here for you to pick from or to use to help you create your own statements or vows. Remember that the difference between the statements and vows is that the statements are intended to be spoken in unison rather than separately.
