In early 2024 we began a 2-year generosity initiative that challenged us to go on a discipleship journey individually and as a church to grow in generosity and extend the gospel's reach in our community, region, and world. Here you'll find some updates about how your genrosity is already making a difference and how you can join the journey.

REACH UPDATES

MEET SIBUSISO
July 15, 2024

For the past two years, Covenant has partnered with Sibusiso Mlotshwa who is the Lead Pastor of The Church in Mamelodi located in South Africa. The work this church has been doing in one of South Africa’s largest and most influential townships has been transformational to many. As Covenant Church we have been able to support the ongoing work of their afterschool project thanks to our friends at LIGPUNT Church in Pretoria led by Pastor Johan Verster. Johan visited us April 21, 2024 for our World Impact Lunch, and we heard more of his heart to strengthen and plant churches in the region. Johan’s church is also pouring into many interns and ministry residents. We hope through REACH, Covenant will be able to have the same impact that LIGPUNT has had! Please join us in praying for Johan, his wife Anchen (married for 17 years), and their four children: Liam, Anaïs, Maya, and Finn. 

 

Matthew 28:19-20 “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”


LIGPUNT, established 14 years ago, has played a key role in planting several churches in the Pretoria region. Most of these churches continue to collaborate through 'The Union,' an informal regional network. Johan is also a founding director of 'Trans:mission,' a ministry training program designed to equip men and women for Word ministry within local churches.”

PRIMARY GOAL

The primary goal of REACH is that all of us would have an encounter with Jesus and take steps in the discipleship rhythm of Generosity. Let's pray for a deeper work IN us.

 

We are earnestly praying for 100% participation in this discipleship journey, firmly believing that it will profoundly transform our practice of Christian stewardship, shaping it for a lifetime.

 

SECONDARY GOAL

Our secondary goal is faith-filled and ambitious: to rally Covenant Church to raise her standard of giving by committing to raise an extra $3,000,000 over the next two years. Let's pray for God to do a deeper work THROUGH us.

 

With our regular budget of $3,000,000 per year, that would come to a total of $9,000,000 being released to to advance the gospel's REACH in our community, region, and world!
