FAITH Talks: Presby 101
Sunday, March 23
9:30 a.m. in Fellowship Hall and on Zoom
We'll continue Presby101 — a series in which we are exploring what exactly it means to be Presbyterian. Next Sunday, Grace Lindvall and Mary Kate Sykes will be teaching on the sacraments. Perhaps you've been baptized or have witnessed a baptism and have questions about the sacrament. Or perhaps you partake in communion each month and find yourself wondering what we believe is "going on" at the table? What exactly is a sacrament, anyway? We hope you'll join us for a conversation on both theology and practice and we grow deeper in our understanding of Presbyterianism.

Traditional Music and Choir Leaders
Heather and Kenney Potter
On Monday evening, the Personnel Committee shared with the Session that Kenney and Heather Potter have submitted their resignations from Covenant’s staff. We are deeply grateful for their faithful service for these seven years and will miss them.
Fortunately, they have both graciously agreed to assist the church with the transition. Heather will continue to serve through the end of April in order to finish the academic year with the children’s choirs. Kenney will continue to conduct the chancel choir through an appropriate portion of the summer.
In writing, the Potters expressed their deep gratitude for the privilege of serving alongside this congregation: “We are grateful to God for the opportunity to partner with you in worship and ministry; it will remain one of the great joys of our professional lives.” And yet our lives are marked by different seasons, and the Potters say, “We sense God leading us away from church ministry and into a focused season of care for our growing children and aging parents.” Obviously, we support them in their prayerfully discerned decision.
We will work closely with the Potters and other music staff in the next few months to ensure as smooth a transition as possible and solicit your prayers and support along the way. We will also plan an appropriate time of celebration of the Potters’ ministry among us. In the meantime, please join us in offering heartful gratitude to these dear friends.
In Christ’s service,
Bob Henderson John McAlister
Senior Minister Personnel Chair

This pruning will also improve our campus safety by expanding the sight lines and enhancing visibility around the Rec Wing. While this rejuvenation pruning might appear extreme initially, the new growth will soon become thick, lush, and manageable.
