Hello Community Covenant Church of Goleta!

We hope you've had an amazing week and are feeling encouraged as we move closer to summer.

Coming up this Sunday is our fine-AL look at the Four ALs. Now that we have a better grasp of each of them, along with understanding that we each need each of them, it's time to fully appreciate where to go to experience them. Come to church, and you've come to the right place!

After church, be sure to stick around for a time of fellowship.
If your last name starts with A through F, please bring a dish to share - WE NEED YOUR FOOD! something simple and sharable is perfect!
We'll enjoy good food, good company, and great conversations as we live into our identity as the connected body of Christ.

Be sure to read below and make plans to join us for Church Community!

LIFE AT COMMUNITY COVENANT

We Need Your Voice! ?️
Help Shape the Future of Our Church-Starting Today!

The Evangelical Covenant Church has developed a helpful tool called the Periodic Health Checkup (pH P) to help congregations reflect on three key areas: Missional Identity, Vision, and Leadership.

Our Leadership Board is inviting everyone in our church family to take just 15 minutes to complete this online survey between today and June 12.

Why does this matter?
Because your honest feedback will directly shape how our staff and board engage in strategic planning this summer.

The survey is live now!
Click the link below to begin. Please take the survey only once-this helps ensure the data is clear and accurate.

? Need help accessing or completing the survey?
We've got you covered! Stop by the Welcome Tent on Sunday-our team will have iPads and tech helpers available to assist you.

Let's hear from every voice as we move forward together!

Celebrate Pentecost with Us - Outdoor Worship & BBQ | June 8

Join us for a special Pentecost Sunday Outdoor Service on June 8th at Community Covenant Church!

Pentecost is the day we celebrate the birth of the Church and the power of the Holy Spirit poured out on God's people. We'll mark this meaningful day with powerful outdoor worship, real stories of life change, and a message of hope as we reflect on all that God is doing in and through our church.

After the service, stick around for a church-wide BBQ and time to connect as a community!
The church will provide the meat and drinks, and we're inviting everyone to bring a potluck-style side dish to share.

Don't forget:
Bring a chair, a friend, and your appetite-this is going to be a joyful and memorable day together!
