We welcome all of our college students from all over! If you’re a college student or a young single (in college or not) you’ll find a great church home at the Covenant. You are loved. You are valued. You have a great place in which to find the support you need to build your new life as a young single. You’ll meet new friends that share a common love for Jesus. You’ll learn and grow in your faith. And you’ll find a place to serve and use your gifts and talents. We’re glad you’re here and look forward to seeing God work in you and through you during your time with us at the Covenant!
Being a Part of College Life @ the Covenant
Providing & Connecting
Every Sunday after the second service we offer a FREE MEAL!!! for college students. It’s a great opportunity to meet other students and enjoy an amazing and free meal.
Building Relationships
In all of our gatherings we provide opportunities to meet others in the area. Don’t miss out on our Adopt-A-Student program that can get you plugged in with a church family.
Growing Deeper
Our ultimate purpose is that you continue to grow in your relationship with Jesus Christ. We hope to offer encouragement, guidance, love, and help by means of small groups.
ADOPT-A-STUDENT PROGRAM
Missing home a little? Is laundry costing too much? Is maybe your roommate a little too loud for studying in your room? Or are you already sick of the school food? Well we have families here at the Covenant Church that are ready to “Adopt” you! They’ll frequently provide a good home-cooked meal, a quiet place to study, a clean place to do laundry, help with your car, a loving ear that listens and a hug that will warm your heart!
If you’re interested in being adopted, simply sign up in the church Courtyard, or contact Pastor Jim or Mike and they’ll get you connected ASAP! This is a great opportunity to get connected and start becoming a part of the church family here at the Covenant.
