"If Jonathan Edwards were alive today," Keith Marsh states, "he would be a webmaster."  The Covenant website builds a network so that when the Holy Spirit visits our region "He can simply run across the land."  We warmly invite you to join the network!

What is God up to in New England?

When New England Prays

The New England Alliance, our partner organization, has produced an exciting new video that shares our vision to link New England together in the call for revival and transformation. Our attention is now focused on helping each of the states establish their own outreach efforts and prayer networks. Please continue to pray for the Lord to continue to help us unite all God's people during our preparation period.

April 12 Praise and Worship Event

You are warmly invited to the third Praise and Worship Gathering to be held on Saturday, April 12 from 8:30 - 10:30 am, Lion of Judah. Directions.

In February, about 50 intercessors gathered for an anointed time of prayer and praise that filled our hearts with renewed hope that God is indeed doing a new thing in our region. The worship was led by Pastor Scott Smith of the Christian Renewal Church. See pictures and report.

(Read Pastor Scott's devotion, distributed by Covenant for New England.)

These gatherings are marked by a spirit of confession and repentance, as well as a hunger for a fresh visitation of God's Spirit upon all of New England. There is a reassuring balance and harmony of spirit among those gathered from different denominations and traditions.

Covenant believes that God is calling New England to embrace a particular sensibility and spiritual outlook that characterizes the Spirit-filled life, which goes beyond mere denominational distinctions.

Please bring baked good or a bottle of juice for the fellowship afterward! We look forward to seeing you.

Jeff bass"Covenant for New England plays a valuable role in nurturing unity among Christians in New England. It sounds like a simple thing, but the Church is incredibly diverse and we often operate in our own little worlds. Coming together, getting to know and understand each other, learning to work together takes time, humility, perseverance and energy. But it's necessary if we are truly to become the Salt and Light we are called to be." -- Jeff Bass, Emmanuel Gospel Center

Thanks to the Burdzels who offered to lend an impressive amount of experience and skill to communicate the message of revival and transformation through Covenant.

 
There are a number of ways to get involved, and your ideas are always welcome. God bless you!
