Community Invitation: Juneteenth Celebration Honoring Historic Local Black Churches
Covenant Church is pleased to share an invitation from the Oldham County History Center to attend the 2026 Juneteenth Celebration Banquet, an evening dedicated to honoring the historic local Black churches that have played a vital role in the spiritual, cultural, and civic life of our community.
This event holds special significance for Covenant Church. More than twenty-five years ago, Covenant Church was formed through the merger of LaGrange Methodist Church and Kynette Methodist Church. Kynette was a historic African American congregation in LaGrange, and its faith, witness, and legacy remain an important part of Covenant's story today.
As we celebrate Juneteenth and reflect on the journey toward freedom, justice, and reconciliation, we are grateful for the generations of faithful believers whose ministries helped shape our community and our church family.
