New Pastor to be Appointed

The Pulpit Committee has chosen Bill Boyd to be the new Sr. Minister of Covenant.  There will be a reception to welcome him next Saturday from 4:00 - 6:00pm in the Fellowship Hall.  He will be speaking during both morning services next Sunday.  A meeting will be held directly after the 11:00 service to vote on the Pulpit Committee's recommendation that Bill Boyd be appointed as the new Sr. Minister. 

Birmingham Hospitality Network - Toy Donations

The Birmingham Hospitality Network will be coming to Covenant for the week of May 22 - 29.  On Sunday, May 22nd we will be taking toy donations during Sunday School for the children who live with BHN.  These children travel from church to church and often are unable to carry many toys with them.  We would love to replace some of the broken toys currently in the children's box in the BHN room.  You may bring gently used or new toys for the children who range in ages from infants to teenagers.
