Pentecost
ONE-SERVICE SUNDAY - 10:00am
and Blessing of Our Pledges
Pentecost - One combined service with jazz band and choir
at 10:00am in the Sanctuary.

     Oh, the Spirit will be roaring through Covenant this Sunday.
   I know. That is pretty much how we roll around here.
   Still, this is Pentecost — the birthday of the Church, celebrating the Spirit poured out upon us so that we are the dwelling place of the Spirit of the Living God.
   As part of this great celebration (and the music will be amazing), we will dedicate our pledges, our commitments to the life and ministry of our church family.

I’ll see you all at church — I’ll see you  being church ,

The Bible and Prison: Reading and Writing about the Bible from Behind Bars 
Taught by Rev. Dr. Julie Faith Parker
For the 2013-14 academic year, Dr. Parker taught introductory courses on the Bible to maximum security prison inmates working toward a Master’s degree from inside Sing Sing Correctional Facility. Most of her students were convicted murderers; all were intelligent, kind, and hard-working men. Dr. Parker will explain what it was like to teach behind bars and how her understanding of the Bible changed as a result of this experience. She will also talk about her latest book, My So-Called Biblical Life, which includes essays from men who are incarcerated. Copies will be available for purchase and signing.
