Connect To Serve

 

God calls us to serve one another in a variety of ways. In His perfect design, serving side by side not only meets needs, it also helps us build authentic relationships with one another and grow closer to Him. That's why we're excited for Connect to Serve, a Sunday where we celebrate our current volunteers and help new ones discover meaningful ways to get involved. Whether you've been serving for years or are just getting started, this lunch is for you. We'll share a vision for the year ahead, provide some ministry-specific breakouts, and spend time connecting with the people we have the privilege of serving alongside. Childcare & lunch for kids will be provided in New Cov Kids.

 

Sunday, August 23

Lunch & Vision | 11:00 AM | Flipside Auditorium | For all current and new volunteers.

Ministry-Specific Breakouts |12:00-12:45 PM | Locations vary. Not all ministries will have breakout sessions.

Men's Celebration of Smoked Meat & Cornhole Tournament

Guys, join us for our Men's Celebration of Smoked Meat & Cornhole Tournament on August 29 from 5:00-7:00 PM! This year we are trading in the smoked meat competition for a pure celebration! If you love to smoke meat, we'd love it if you'd sign up to bring some to share! And of course there's cornhole! We'll have a “king of the court” style cornhole competition, which means you don't need a team, you can just play! 

Bring your lawn chair, play some cornhole, eat some meat, and share in great community! Please register below.

See photos from their trip and learn more about One Thread below.

 

Congo Missions Team Q&A

New Cov, you rallied around our Congo team with your Christmas Eve offerings and supported them so well as they prepared for and went on their trip. Because of your generosity and what God has been doing through The One Thread Project, we’ve seen a snowball effect of momentum since our spring trip, and our team is excited to share some updates with you! Join us at 11:00 on Sunday, September 13 to hear what’s been happening and have a chance to ask questions of members of our spring team.
