Very Interesting Seniors Investigating Our New Season
Covenant offers programs and events well suited for the specific needs and desires of our older adults. These fellowship and congregational care opportunities enrich the lives of our senior members. Many of these activities are considered VISIONS events or “Very Interesting Seniors Investigating Our New Season of life.” Covenant’s senior adults participate in monthly outings and meetings, special events, and ongoing church-wide programs. We encourage all to join, including visitors and persons of all ages.
