What To Expect

Welcome!

Covenant Presbyterian Church

We are pleased you’re considering visiting. This page will help you by answering some questions you may have.

Entering the building

The main entrance is located along Perry Street toward the back of the building. We have a handicapped entry on the opposite side of the building. (See a parking map at the bottom of this page.)

When you arrive

You’ll be welcomed at the main entrance on Perry Street, by a greeter who will hold the door for you. You’ll proceed up the steps to your right where you’ll find the entrance to our sanctuary, as well as our library and church offices. If you’d like to use the nursery for your little ones it is found on the second floor. A nursing mother’s room is also available. Pick up a copy of the bulletin as you enter the sanctuary. An usher may help you to find a seat.

What are the services like?

We hear the Bible, pray, sing hymns, give for the work of the church, hear a sermon based on the Bible, and celebrate the Lord’s Supper together.

How long are they?

Our service usually lasts about 1 hr and 15 minutes.

What is your style of worship?

Our service is traditional and joy-filled, in the spirit of the Reformation. We sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs, generally accompanied by piano. 

What is the typical attire?

We strive to dress in a respectful and modest manner consistent with entering the presence of a holy God. That being said, attire generally ranges from dresses and ties, to jeans.

After the Service

We make it a point to especially welcome visitors with a lunch after the service. This is a wonderful opportunity to get to know us better, and so we can learn about you. This luncheon takes place in our fellowship hall in the basement after almost every Sunday service; check our calendar to be sure. You don’t need to bring anything; everything is provided!

Is childcare available?

Yes.

Is a nursing mother’s room available?

Yes.

Parking

On Sunday Mornings, members and visitors are permitted to park in the PriMed parking lot across Perry St. If the parking lot is full, please find a space along Perry St in a manner that least affects the residents.
