What is Happening This Week 2/6 – 2/10/19

Please keep our Mission Trip team in your prayers as they head to Sinton, TX on Thursday to continue recovery/rebuilding efforts following the destruction of Hurricane Harvey.
Join us during worship this Sunday, February 10, as we celebrate Children’s Sunday! Our children will lead us in worship and song.
Following worship, join Melissa Beard in Room 211 in the Covenant Center to learn how to become a suicide prevention gatekeeper in a great one-hour training. Question, Persuade, Refer (QPR) is a clear, concise, and efficient emergency response to someone in crisis and can save lives. This class is for everyone – teens and adults. In QPR, you will learn how wide-reaching suicide is, signs of depression/mental illness, and how to help someone who is feeling suicidal get the help they need. The cost is $3 to for the take-home booklet.
