Covenant Kids Camp

Covenant Kids camp will be a time for kids to unplug and retreat from the busyness of life and focus in on their personal faith with Jesus Christ. Our kids are living in a time when their schedules rarely allow for them to slow down and dwell on the Word of God.  Camp will provide opportunities for them to not only grow spiritually but have intentional, authentic fellowship with other kids their age.  Open to all kids entering 3^rd grade- 6^th grade.  Dates of camp: July 8-12. Registration is due no later than May 26^th.  Please see Pastor Dwight for more information.

Sponsors for Alert Road Race

We are gearing up for the 21^st Annual Alert Road Race on June 15^th!  If you have been a sponsor in the past, please check your church mailbox for more information.  If you think your business or employer or a business you patronize might be interested in being a sponsor, there is a letter titled “Sponsorship Opportunity” available on the welcome center that you can use.  ALSO, now is the time to share any ideas you have to make the race better!  Contact Teresa by e-mail at:  teemoandgeezr@gmail.com (yes, geezr, not geezer)  Would someone be willing to organize nursery service during the race for runners with small children?  Any way we can make the runners more comfortable, will help make them want to come back!
