Dear Covenant family,

 

‘Submit to one another out of reference for Christ’ – Eph 5:21

 

It is good to be back! We enjoyed a wonderful family vacation – splashing in the South Carolina waves, enjoying God’s beauty and time as a family. We are refreshed. A big thank you for everybody who stepped in during our absence to make sure things went smoothly. We appreciate all of you. We look forward to celebrate Father’s Day with everybody this Sunday. Part of the sermon will be a testimony from Kari about how to deal with…… her man, as we continue in Ephesians. Should be inspiring!

 

Prayer and Praise Reports:

Jackie Nasser successfully underwent hip replacement surgery, and is expected to be back home tomorrow, Saturday June 14. She thanks everyone for their prayers. If you want to help with meals, please contact Linda Davis.
