Levi's First Laugh
What did Adam say on the day before Christmas?
It's Christmas, Eve!
High School Youth and Families,
Summer has finally come to an end and the inevitable first day of school is upon us. But with the first day of school comes a whole new year of programming for you at Covenant!
Sunday school, Sunday night youth fellowship, and Wednesday night Film + Theology will be back in a couple weeks and we can't wait to see all of you there.
First, we have a kick off party at Katherine and Andy Ball's house where we can play and relax and enjoy one last night of summer together. If you have not already done so, please RSVP to myself or
Erin Williams as soon as possible! I can't wait to get off to a great start this school year and I hope to see all of you soon.
Good luck with your first days back to school!
Levi Bannerman
Director of High School Youth Ministry
