Unlocking Joy
“No soul that seriously and constantly desires joy will ever miss it. Those who seek find. To those who knock it is opened.” – C.S. Lewis
For more than six decades, God has been at work in the life of the Covenant Family, and through us, in the city of Austin and the wider world. In recent years our church has grown beyond what our facilities can comfortably accommodate, but we believe the perfect solution exists in Eaton Hall.
The Growth Task Force, with the support of the Session, has teamed up with architecture firm Andersson Wise to envision a future for Eaton Hall that rehabilitates the facility and restores its place as the heart of our campus.
Construction Update
Construction on Eaton Hall is nearing completion, and we are looking forward to reopening this important space in the life of our church. Join us on Sunday, March 29, as we celebrate the grand re-opening of Eaton Hall with a dedication, tours of the updated facility, and time together as a community.
Campus Master Plan Upgrades
The new campus masterplan improves the pedestrian experience and expands our usable outdoor spaces. The path from the parking lot to the patio will be reworked to include terraced layers. A new, gently sloped sidewalk path winds through the existing trees and ascends to the patio. This path is ideal for wheelchairs and baby strollers alike.
