Welcome!
Thank you for visiting Covenant Presbyterian church online. We invite you to learn more about our church on this site, and we hope you will come in for a visit. We would love to meet you and to share with you our love for God and for each of God’s beloved children. We are a multi-ethnic, multi-generational church, and members of the Presbyterian Church (USA). Our church building also serves as a “nesting church” for four developing immigrant faith communities within East County. Three offer services in Spanish: Iglesia Apostolical de Fe en Jesus Cristo (affiliated with International Pentecostal church); Iglesia Pentecostal Fuego de Dios, an outreach associated with the main church in Vancouver, WA; and Iglesia Prometide de Dios. The fourth is Church of the Full Gospel, a Russian-language multi-national Bible Study.
Covenant Presbyterian is also a center for community assetts. We house Little Manuel Care Center (a Preschool for All Daycare) and Sunshine Adult Services. Covenant is a member of the national Safe Place network, and hosts local Girl Scout troops, book clubs, garden clubs, and other community groups. We also have 2 acres of un-used natural space that the congregation is currently discerning to best uses for.
