As our guest you’ll notice a lot happens on Sunday morning. So we’d like to take a few moments to help you plan your first visit to Covenant.
Parking & Entering the Building
When you arrive, you’ll notice that we have parking lots both on the east (visible from Coldwater Road) and west sides of our building (accessible from Choctaw Pass, just north of the church off Coldwater Road). Church entrances can be accessed from each parking lot, and both entrances are handicap accessible, but the one on the west side of the church gives you direct access to our Welcome Center, the Sanctuary, and Fellowship Hall. Just look for the green flags!
For the Kiddos
If you're bringing kiddos with you and would like for them to participate in Sunday morning children's activities, stop by our Children's Check-In station to register them or pre-register ahead of time. We also have a Family Nook available for caregivers and their little ones just off our Fellowship Hall. It is equipped with toys, a rocking chair, space to move, and a TV with the worship service streamed in. We also have changing stations available in all our our restrooms and in our nursery.
For children aged 3 through 5th grade, children's programming is available during both worship services. During first service, our children can either begin attending class at 9 am, or they can attend the worship service and be dismissed partway through the service.
During second service, our children participate in a children's moment during the worship service, then are dismissed for children's programming following.
Finding Information Onsite
Stop by our Welcome Center if you have any questions, need help navigating children to the nursery area, or Sunday morning classes. They have an up-to-date listing of what's coming up next at Covenant UMC, contact information to help you get connected with our ministries, and a gift for those visiting for the first time.

Preparing For Your First Visit
Feeling a bit nervous about visiting for the first time? We understand. New experiences can be daunting for even the bravest among us.
If you're interested, we offer private tours throughout the week for anyone who might be interested in learning more about what to expect upon arrival on a Sunday morning. Simply contact Pastor Allison, and we'll be happy to arrange a visit.
You can also always watch our worship services here on our online platform or on our Facebook page to get a sense of what to expect during our worship services.
And if you find you have questions at any time, please don't hesitate to reach out. Our contact information can be found at the bottom of this page. We hope you'll consider joining us for worship and our many other ministries throughout the week. All are welcome here.
