Fine Arts Camp:
Wow! What a fantastic week we had at Fine Arts Camp. Many adults and youth volunteered to help. Thank you very much! We had 32 children attend and averaged 25 workers each day. The students enjoyed Arts & Crafts, Cooking, Stained Glass, Painting, Woodworking, Guitar, and Sound, Lights & Video. Several parents and students told me this was their favorite camp ever! There are many talented people at Covenant, and I'm so thankful that you're willing to use those talents and share them with our children. A big thank you to ALL who helped make our first Fine Arts Camp a HUGE success! Hoppers in Concert (Free!):

Thank you also for the steady reminder of your names so we can put them with faces. We can't wait to see what sort of great things the Lord is going to do amongst us! We are praying for you, and we trust you are doing the same for us. The King's servant,
