Elders

Covenant’s Elders serve as members of the General Board.  Additionally, they serve each week at the Lord’s table offering prayers for communion and for the tithes and offerings received.  The Elders also meet regularly for spiritual development, to build relationships and community with one another, and to pray for members and guests of our congregation.

Meeting Schedule and Spiritual Development Topic

Elders meet the third Tuesday of each month at 6:30pm.  November’s meeting will be on the 2nd Tuesday of the month instead of the third due to Thanksgiving.

Currently the Elders are reviewing and discussing podcasts as they relate to spirituality at each of their meetings.  Listed below are links to the podcasts being discussed:
