Volunteers Needed
| Sunday School is a joyous opportunity to help foster Christian Education for our children. Teaching Sunday School is a great way to reengage with our church family after the pandemic where many of us were forced to love each other from a distance. It is also a wonderful way to meet new families and build relationships for the future. In order to continue this cherished tradition, we need your help! Please consider signing up for one or more Sundays to teach Sunday School. It's easy, fun and we supply all of the curriculum and supplies. This is a beautiful way to build that Christian “village” right here at Covenant. If you have any questions, please email Dailyn Sailor.

children's ministry overview
With special times on Sundays and Wednesdays, and through our weekday preschool, we share Christian values and themes in a variety of ways — through songs, drama, crafts and service. We also give parents tools and resources to help them guide their child’s spiritual development.
Children are welcome in all worship services, can attend age-appropriate Sunday School classes, and are encouraged to participate in other programs within the church. If you have any questions or would like to get connected, contact Dailyn Sailor.

Children are spiritual beings. They come to us with a sense of curiosity, playfulness, imagination, and a connection to something larger than themselves. Our charge both as parents and as the church is to sustain and deepen that connection. Consequently, Covenant offers a series of worship and education opportunities designed to nurture children and families into a life of faith.
Child of the Covenant - Infants & Toddlers
A celebration of babies born and adopted into the Covenant family in the previous year, Child of the Covenant is an annual worship celebration and reception to connect our families to programs offered in the Children’s Ministry, Women’s Circles and other families with young children. The occasion includes a reception, fellowship and group photo.
Christmas and Easter Worship – Kindergarteners
Each year at Christmas and Easter, our kindergarteners lead the Children’s services with reenactments of the Christmas and Easter stories.
Ready, Set, Worship
As they advance in grade level, children take part in faith formation milestones to learn about worship traditions.

As they advance in grade level, children take part in faith formation milestones to learn about worship traditions.
Grade 1: Children and families get ready, get set and learn to worship together by examining the Sacrament of Communion. The class finishes with their participation in World Communion Sunday.
Grade 2: Children and families learn about the Sacrament of Baptism and are offered the opportunity to be baptized during worship.
Grade 3: Children participate in a “Bible Lock In” and are then presented with Bibles in worship.
Grade 4: Tour the Sanctuary and Bell Tower with an eye on the meaning of Sacred Spaces.
Grade 5: Children and families participate in a one-day workshop on the relationship between Faith and Sexuality. Adolescents and parents learn about body image and healthy attitudes toward God's gift of sexuality. Breakout discussion groups are led by trained facilitators. Fifth graders typically attend from 9 a.m. to noon followed by lunch and a movie break. Parents are invited from noon to 2 p.m. Parents and kids will join each other for the conclusion.
