Congregational Care

Prayer Teams

Covenant has two prayer teams, connected via email, made up of devoted prayer warriors, who are committed to lifting up our concerns and requests to God.  If you have a prayer request, you can fill out a prayer card in church or send an email here.  You can trust that needs will be held close and lifted up to God on a regular basis.

Visitation Team 

This team is comprised of approximately 18 compassionate individuals who visit the members of Covenant, when they are going through trying times outside of church.  This includes those who are in the hospital, home-bound for whatever reason or time, and those members in nursing homes.  

Stephen Ministry

Covenant now has trained and commissioned Care Givers.  Our Christ-centered goal is to help someone going through a crisis (serious illness, job loss, death of a family member or friend, divorce, difficulty adjusting to a recent move to our community, etc.) by matching her or him up with a Stephen Minister (of the same gender) who will meet with you one hour a week to listen and encourage as they work through the crisis to a position of wholeness. Please contact Al Franks at 337-280-2821 if you (or a friend) is in need of a Stephen Minister.  You are never alone.

Healthcare Ministry

Covenant's Healthcare Ministry is a group of Covenant members, sponsored by Lourdes Hospital. Lourdes works with Covenant and 15 other churches in the local area and our goal is to provide programs and seminars that improve the health and lives of people in our church and community.
