Make plans now to join us on Sunday, February 27 for a special combined Sunday School in the sanctuary. For our Missions Conference we will have the opportunity to gather together to hear from a panel of our supported workers from around the world. After Sunday School, we will have a time of fellowship and cookies from around the world in the lobbies of the worship center before morning worship.

We are looking forward to having cookies from around the world and a time of fellowship together during the Missions Conference on Sunday, February 27 between our combined Sunday School and the morning worship service! We have simple recipes for 3 cookies - Scottish Shortbread, Chinese Almond and French Gluten free Chocolate Meringue. If you are willing to bake cookies for missions week, you can find all the recipes by clicking here. You will just need to bring them to any lobby in the worship center between 8:45 am and 10:00 am on Sunday, February 27. If you have any questions, please contact Karen Chambers at kchambers@christcovenant.org. To sign up to bake cookies, click here.

Tens of thousands of Afghans were forced to flee their homeland this summer as the country fell to the Taliban’s brutal regime. Leaving everything behind, these desperate people were evacuated on hurried flights and now await resettlement here in the United States.

As Christ Covenant considers welcoming and sponsoring a family from Afghanistan, please consider how you can help us prepare to support and love them in the name of Christ! We need your skills and resources in a variety of areas as we form an organizational team and volunteer network to serve this family! We anticipate a team of 6-8 people giving significant time and assistance to a single Afghan family in these and other areas.

• Help them find housing,

• Offer housewares and home furnishings,

• Enroll children in school and shop for school supplies,

• Teach skills like driving and shopping,

• Provide transportation to appointments,

• Engage children and family in community events,

• Introduce parents to potential employers,

• And much more!

If you are interested in serving as part of this team, please contact Mike Miller at mmiller@christcovenant.org or at 704-814-1056.

Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones’s Studies in the Sermon on the Mount is a helpful companion to Christ Covenant’s evening sermon series. It is written with the doctor’s typical edifying style. Pastor Kevin highly recommends this volume. It is 585 pages and costs $28. John Stott and Sinclair Ferguson’s smaller books on the Sermon on the Mount are $8 and $10, if you are looking for something more compact. These can be found in the Book Nook located in the main lobby of the worship center.
