The day to day work at Covenant is the responsibility of two groups of elected officers, the Session and the Board of Deacons.
The Session is responsible for work relating to worship, program, finances, and the property. It is comprised of nine elders elected by the congregation, and they oversee eight commissions: Finance, Personnel, Property / Building Use, Christian Education, Mission and Stewardship, Fellowship, Worship, Membership and Outreach. If you have any questions, you can e-mail the Session, call them on the phone, or talk with them after church during fellowship in the hall.
