Loneliness is a terrible thing, yet today it is more and more a way of life.  As cities grow larger and larger; as people move around more an more, it becomes easy to be isolated and alone.  Even in the midst of co-workers and neighbors down the street we find ourselves without any true friends with whom we can share our lives.

Fortunately, loneliness is not God's plan for the world.  When God created human beings, including you and me, God created us to be in community.  God created us first to be in community with God's self, and then with others around us.  To that end God called together a people...a people who would love and care for one another.

Covenant is one of those communities of caring.  We strive to open ourselves to those who are seeking acceptance and friendship.  If you are lonely we invite you to get in touch with us that we might come to know you as friend.

The PC(USA) Book of Order speaks of community in this way:

          The church is called to be Christ's faithful evangelist:

                    demonstrating by the love of its members for one another
                    and by the quality of its common life the new reality in
                    Christ;

                    sharing in worship, fellowship, and nurture,

                    practicing a deepened life of prayer and service under the
                    guidance of the Holy Spirit;

                    (W-3.0300)
