Congratulations Communicants!

On Sunday, April 22, in the second service, our sixth grade
Communicants Class will make their public profession of faith,
take their church membership vows and participate in their first
communion. This is a big day for them and their families, and it comes
after quite a bit of work on the Communicant’s part. A Communicant
is simply one who is seeking “communing” membership at
Covenant Presbyterian Church. Communing members are those who have made
a profession of faith in Christ, have been baptized, and have been
admitted by the Session to the Lord’s Table. In turn, those who have
done these things are then entitled to all the rights and privileges of
the church.

Since February, our Communicants have been engaged in teachings
on topics such as the church, sacraments, government and general
distinctives of our faith. They have taken a test on the material
and have been interviewed by an Elder. On Sunday night, April 15,
Covenant hosts the Communicants’ Class and their parents at a meal
in their honor. At the conclusion of the evening, the Communicants
will be presented to the Session for membership.

We congratulate these Sixth Graders and their families!
