Winter Getaways for Elementary Kids
Covenant Kids Camps is hosting a Winter Getaway at the Covenant Church in Lindsborg on February 29th. If your child is age 2nd – 6th Grade and may be interested in going to Rock Springs this summer for camps, this is a great opportunity to get a fun preview of what it will be like. If your child has gone to Covenant Kids Camp, this is a fun chance for them to see their friends from last year! Registration is required and the forms are in the church office. See Pastor Stephanie with any questions you have.

Call to Fasting and Prayer
As we look ahead to 2020, our leadership has set a goal of nurturing a culture of prayer at Alert. We want to encourage our congregation to join us in committing to pray and fast for a day from time to time in 2020. We would like to fill the calendar with volunteers who are willing to participate. A sign-up sheet with the first three months will be available at the Welcome Center for volunteers to sign up for a day to fast and pray.
We are considering offering Financial Peace University beginning March 1st depending upon how much interest there is. The course is nine weeks long and we would hold the course on Sunday evenings at 5:00 p.m. with a meal provided. Each session would be about one and a half hours. Dave Ramsey is the presenter via video and each session concludes with discussion over the contents. If you are interested in participating, please tell Pastor Dwight.
New
Prayer Cards
There are new prayer cards available for Stephan and Robin Gibson and the
Coughlin family located on the Welcome Center.
T-Shirts
If you are interested in ordering a t-shirt like the t-shirts designed for the Mexico Mission team, please visit with Rose Linhardt. This is a fundraiser for the mission trip coming up in the summer of 2020.
Cancellations
This winter our intentions are to have Sunday services unless there is a blizzard or severe ice storm. In case of a cancellation, our deacons/deaconess will call you and let you know, or you can check the church Facebook page.
