Living in the Northern Virginia suburbs is a challenge. So many of us commute to jobs; work long hours; come home to a list of things that need immediate attention – let alone meals, home responsibilities and activities. Sound familiar?
Most of us want to feel like we have purpose and meaning. On better days, we really do want quality connection with others. We want to know people who know our names and with whom we can joke, laugh and share concerns. We want community.
Covenant Presbyterian Church is such a place. You will meet people like you who are real and who know that God loves each and every one of us. Explore our website to see how we try to live our mission of “being connected.” Better yet – visit us! We will welcome you at Covenant.
Covenant Presbyterian Church strives to continuously support ACTION in Community Through Service (ACTS), based in Dumfries, VA. The mission of ACTS is “to alleviate hunger, homelessness and interpersonal violence in order to help individuals achieve self-sufficiency.” The program provides Human Services (assistance with emergencies, food and housing) as well as Crisis Services (programs dealing with domestic violence and sexual assault). ![]()

ACTS operates a robust food pantry, assisting over 700 families each month with over 50,000 pounds of food and other necessities. Important but often forgotten needs for assisted families include toiletry items, which can be quite expensive. To help with this need, Covenant Presbyterian Church is collecting these items (as well as food) for delivery to ACTS. Thank you to everyone who has donated items and funds! We will continue the collection/delivery indefinitely, so please continue to donate when you are able by bringing items to church. ![]()

If you worship online and would like to help, we encourage you to either donate directly to ACTS or include an online financial donation to Covenant. The funds will be delivered to ACTS to be used in areas of highest need. If you choose to send your contribution through Covenant (app.easytithe.com/App/Giving/cpc), please include a note indicating the donation is for ACTS. Thank you!![]()

Sunday, Sept 24th featured one of Covenant’s beloved traditions—the National Mission Trip Cake Auction. Covenant members gathered following services to raise funds in support of disaster relief efforts in New Bern, NC. Covenant bakers are a talented bunch, prompting spirited bidding by attendees. All funds raised at the auction will be used to help the New Bern community recover from storm damage.![]()

In 2018, New Bern was severely impacted by flooding during and following Hurricane Florence’s arrival. Uninsured and underinsured residents are still reeling from the damage, made worse by this past week’s Tropical Storm Ophelia flooding. Families are still living in water-damaged homes. Covenant volunteers will assist in relief efforts Oct 9-12. If you are interested in participating, we would love to include you! No experience is necessary.![]()

We welcome all contributions large, small, and everywhere in between to the mission trip collection. Please let us know if you have questions on how to donate.
Services on Sept 24th included several opportunities for the congregation to worship through music. The choir is up and running for the 2023-2024 season. Are you interested in joining the choir? Please let us know! ![]()

Covenant’s children took a turn leading worship with their song about the Bible. One of our congregants received her very special 3rd-grade Bible this Sunday, a rite of passage for our young learners. Children’s education is offered each Sunday during 10:00 a.m. services. We’d love for your family to join us 🙂.
