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.
Romans 16:1-16 NRSV1I commend to you our sister Phoebe, a deacon of the church at Cenchreae, 2 so that you may welcome her in the Lord, as is fitting for the saints, and help her in whatever she may require from you, for she has been a benefactor of many and of myself as well. 3 Greet Prisca and Aquila, my coworkers in Christ Jesus, 4 who risked their necks for my life, to whom not only I give thanks but also all the churches of the gentiles. 5 Greet also the church in their house. Greet my beloved Epaenetus, who was the first convert in Asia for Christ. 6 Greet Mary, who has worked very hard for you. 7 Greet Andronicus and Junia, my fellow Israelites who were in prison with me; they are prominent among the apostles, and they were in Christ before I was. 8 Greet Ampliatus, my beloved in the Lord. 9 Greet Urbanus, our coworker in Christ, and my beloved Stachys. 10 Greet Apelles, who is approved in Christ. Greet those who belong to the family of Aristobulus. 11 Greet my fellow Israelite Herodion.
