What is the Covenant Service?

From early days of Methodism, Methodists have met once a year to renew their relationship with God. The Covenant is a personal relationship, entered into between an individual and God, in which the person agrees to do God’s will; in exchange God promises them new life in Christ.

It is a powerful service and often other Christians in the area feel called to join with the Methodists in this Special Service.

In Kibworth, we are holding our Covenant Service on Sunday 8 January @ 10.30am. If you think that you might wish to renew your own personal Covenant with God, you can ‘Google’ the words of the ‘Methodist Covenant Service’ to see what is involved and are then most welcome to start 2023 with us.
