Delicious Food and Warm Fellowship
Before the service begins, we have delicious snacks, drinks, and coffee.
If you can, arrive early! Arriving early is an opportunity for you to either make new friends, or to sit and reflect on your heart before God.

Gospel-Centered Reformed Worship & Expository Preaching
It's with great joy that God's people in Covenant Church gather weekly on Sundays for worship. All of the events of the previous week: the prayer, the service ministries, the fellowship; they all come together in crescendo on Sundays as all the Covenant Church members, from their various locations across and beyond the San Fernando Valley, come together to celebrate what God has done for them in Jesus and what God is doing among them by his Holy Spirit.
The service itself is an exciting and structured opportunity for singing, confessing, preaching, praying, giving of time, talents, treasures, and believers partaking of the Lord's Supper as we're reminded again of God's great love for his people.
The preaching is expository, meaning that the minister draws out the message from the verses of Scripture.

Warm Fellowship After Worship
Forming deep friendships with people happens naturally when you share a close mutual friend already. Those in Covenant Church who are following Jesus, thereby growing closer to him, are automatically developing relationships and friendships with fellow believers in the church as all move in one direction towards the Lord Jesus in faith.
