It's Christian Education Week at Covenant!! We are excited to invite you into our school and classrooms to see 'Christian Education' in action! Our pastors will be coming in on Wednesday morning to connect with our students, and Wednesday afternoon from 2:30-3:20, we are inviting parents and supporters to come through an 'Open House'.
Our Theme this year is 'Taking Hold of God's Story', and as a school we are being intentional about identifying and telling stories of God's faithfulness. These stories take two forms: looking back and looking forward.
Psalm 139 reminds us that God's story for us began even before we were born. Ephesians 10:2 reminds us that our story involves works that God has prepared for us to do. Grace and action. Providence and response. As beloved and redeemed of Christ, we are charged to 'Take Hold' of God's story and to own it!
Will you help us 'Take Hold' of God's story by sharing yours?
Around CCS, you will see around the school evidences of God's story. We would love for you to add your 'stepping stones' on your journey through and experience of Christian Education.
What does Christian Education mean for you and/or for your family?
If you come in on Wednesday, you will have an opportunity to write it down and add it to our supporters of Christian Education wall not unlike Joshua was commanded to do:
"When your children ask their fathers in times to come, 'What do these stones mean?' then you shall let your children know,...so that all the peoples of the earth may know that the hand of the Lord is mighty, that you may fear the Lord your God forever." - Joshua 4: 21, 22a, 24
If you are not able to come in, we would love for you to share your story anyway! By clicking on the link below, you will be able to share your story with us and encourage our staff and students with that witness! http://goo.gl/TUcw3i (If you plan to be here for the open house and want to do this as well, please do!!)
