Welcome
Welcome!
Covenant is a tight-knit intergenerational community committed to being in relationship with God and all of God's creation.
We worship on Sundays, usually in the sanctuary, where children are actively involved in worship & worship leadership. We gather once or twice a week for Christian Formation activities. We share our resources with nonprofit organizations that service the both Arlington County and South Sudan.
We are a neighborhood church with a big mission: to bless others as we have been blessed (Genesis 12:2). We’re tightly connected to the local Arlington community and we also have a global outreach.
Join us for worship on Sundays at 2666 Military Road (or via Zoom).
Our History
Church of the Covenant
Established in 1958, Church of the Covenant is a congregation of the Presbyterian Church USA, a protestant denomination in the United States. The Reformation of the church in Europe dates back to 1517, when Martin Luther nailed his "95 Theses" to the door of the chapel church in Wittenberg, Germany.
Why is it called Covenant?
What is the meaning of the word COVENANT? It is a solemn agreement in the Bible, the agreement between God and humanity, referred to repeatedly in both the Old and New Testaments.
This COVENANT is referred to as eternal - forever, unending, God and humans in relationship with each other. Even when humans fall short of their end of the promises, God’s promises in the Covenant are never broken. To illustrate and accentuate this theme, the “ribbon” windows (pictured on the homepage) in the sanctuary depict Covenants in the Old and New Testaments.
