Youth and Young Adults

April was such an exciting and amazing month for our youth and young adults. We hid eggs, baked cookies for Kairos, and practiced and performed sign language with the children for both services. We were also honored to be included in the ground breaking ceremonies. Participating in the ground breaking ceremonies on Easter Sunday was very special to our youth and young adults. However, it was especially rewarding for me to be able to see our kids taking part in such a milestone for our church. I remember being at the first ground breaking and never imagining how much this church would grow, or how this wonderful church family would touch my life in so many ways. I pray that our youth will always feel the love and support from our Covenant family that I have felt these past 31 years.

It is hard to believe that the end of the school year is already here. On May 5th we are having a graduation banquet for our graduating seniors. Jacob Hester and Rex Jones, graduating from Lafayette High on May 19th, Lauren Lee graduating from Academy of the Sacred Heart on June 1st, and Moriah Rabeaux, congratulations.

Coming up in May and June, we will be doing a couple of fundraisers for our mission trip in July. Our goal is to be able to pay for the entire mission trip for those going. I know we can do this with prayers, hard work and support from our wonderful church. I am looking forward to a very busy, productive and fun filled summer.

If you have or know of a child in junior or senior high or a young adult and they are not participating please encourage them to come and give us a try, I don't think they will be disappointed.
