Church World Service Hygiene Kits: we’ll be collecting contents and donations to create as many kits as we can, to send to those in need across our country and the world. Please go to the Giving Tree in the entryway for specific information on what you can contribute; write a check to Covenant Church with “CWS kits” in the memo line; and plan to help put the kits together on Sunday, November 25th after worship. Monetary donations go farther as we are able to purchase items in bulk.
