Nate Terry and the Major 7 Singers will present “Traveling Home”, a choral concert with the unifying theme of wandering, yearning, and arriving at home. Featuring Nate Terry’s “Songs of Practice” choral collection, as well as pieces by David Lantz III, Stephen Paulus, Marta Keen, and Sarah Quartel. This 50 minute concert is free and open to the public. A free-will offering will be collected in support of the Major 7 Singers.

Nate is currently completing a set of compositions commissioned by our music department at Covenant, which we will feature in the fall. 

We are going to see what our PC(USA)mission co-workers, Mark Hare and Jenny Bent, are doing. They serve on a team at the Latin American Biblical University focused on climate justice and ecological sustainability.Our dates are set: 1/7-1/14, 2025. The agenda includes an introduction to the local community, to environmental struggles in the rural area, to faith communities in Costa Rica, and to reading the Bible in Latin America. We are going to see what God is doing, and to see where we might be invited to engage and develop ongoing relationships. For more information contact Beth Askue or Susan Imel or come to our next organizational meeting Sunday, June 23, at 11:15 in Room 120. 

JOY
There’s joy deep in my heart today,
I want to sing and cheer and shout!
My graduation comes at last!
A time to face with love, with doubt.

My future lies in front of me,
I search to find the way ahead.
Until I reach the simple path,
Lit by the light, where God has led!

In God’s hands I find my courage!
In God’s hands compassion blooms!
In God’s hands grace shines before me
And God’s mercy ever looms!

Covenant Deacons offers rides to members who need transportation to church functions, doctor's appointments, etc.  Please call the church office, 614-451-6677, to let them know that you are in need of transportation and any information you think we will need.  The office administrator will call the Deacon in charge and the Deacon will call you to set up your ride. 

We all have been challenged to raise awareness of human trafficking, a multi-billion dollar business second only to drug trafficking. For many years, Covenant members have been supporting programs for women who are trying to recover their lives especially through CATCH Court's program and Freedom a la Cart. Each month, we take lunch for 55 people to CATCH Court on the first Thursday. We invite you to attend Court, providing food for lunch and staying to observe the Court in session. It is also possible to help serve lunch and return to church rather than staying.

The Prayer Shawl Circle has been knitting and crocheting shawls for over 17 years. Sometimes not every bit of the three skeins of yarn is used. The Circle is offering the leftovers to anyone who might like to knit a pocket prayer shawl. Yarn and directions are available. Check with Louise Davidson.
