Adults

Worship, Bible study and missions anchor the program of worship and service at Baptist Church of the Covenant.

The primary worship service is conducted on Sunday mornings, beginning at 9 a.m. This is followed by a period of refreshments in the Fellowship Hall in which visitors and members get to mingle and share about the work of the church and the needs of the people.

This is followed by an hour of Bible study, from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. Classes are designed for every age group and interest. See the Preschool, Children’s and Youth Department for studies unique to children. Below is a listing of Adult Classes.

Most adult classes are intergenerational and are for any adults who wish to attend.
