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.

Armchair Travelers begins its fall schedule on Thursday, September 5. Fred and Barbara Worley share pictures of their cruise from Prague to Berlin. This ten day trip includes Prague, a city that avoided WW2 bombing, Dresden which didn’t, Wittenberg where Martin Luther launched the Reformation, Potsdam where the Big 3 closed out WW2, and Berlin where WW2 was planned. But most of the slides are of architectural monuments from medieval to renaissance, and includes Fred’s examples of post industrial revolution civic manhole covers.
Armchair Travelers meet at 7:00 p.m. in FEB 200, with light refreshments provided. We encourage those that can join us in-person to do so, but we will also share the presentation via Zoom for those who cannot attend in-person.
