Country Lane Worship Services

For several years now, Covenant has provided ministry at Country Lane apartments, a local retirement community. Every Sunday at 1 pm, we provide a worship service for residents. We welcome and offer communion to all. The service follows the basic format of our normal church service: prayer, corporate confession and forgiveness, Bible readings, a short message, the Apostle's Creed and Lord's Prayer, Communion, and Benediction. And lots of music. If you'd like to help with this ministry we have several ways you can:

-- Offer the opening prayer or prayers of the day
-- Read the Bible lessons
-- Offer the message for the day
-- Assist with Communion
-- Play and/or sing with the group
-- Bake cookies - we take cookies or some other little snack to share after worship
-- Enjoy fellowship with the residents - this is likely the most important part of this ministry, and also the easiest and most fun way to participate!
-- Pray for the ministry team

In addition to the weekly services, we take a meal and have a sing-along at 5 pm on the last Sunday of every month. There are generally 20-25 residents who come to enjoy food, fellowship, and song. If you'd like to help with this ministry, you can:

-- Fix the meal
-- Help serve the meal
-- Play and/or sing with the group
-- Enjoy fellowship with the residents
-- Help clean tables after the meal and singing (we try to leave it cleaner than when we arrived)
-- Provide money to help pay for supplies for cooking and serving the meal

If you'd like to serve, but have questions, please contact the church office, and they'll put you in touch with someone on the Country Lane ministry team so we can get you plugged in to helping too! And if you'd just like to come and worship with our Country Lane neighbors, you are always welcome at the services and sing-along!

    I want to help!

    Please include here how you would like to participate (ex. I would like to bring a meal)
