Stay Connected with Covenant Wherever You Go

Church life happens in many places.

It happens on Sunday morning in worship, around tables in Bible study, in ministry teams, at special events, through prayer, and in the conversations and relationships that continue throughout the week.

The Covenant Church app is designed to help keep all of those pieces connected.
If you have not downloaded the app yet—or if you downloaded it but haven’t explored everything it can do—we encourage you to take a few minutes to get connected.

More Than Another App
Most of us probably have enough apps on our phones already. So the goal isn’t simply to add another icon to your screen.

The Covenant Church app gives you one convenient place to stay connected with the worship, discipleship, prayer, events, and community life of the church.

Through the app, you can watch or listen to sermons, see upcoming events, register for activities, read church news, submit prayer requests, give online, use the Bible, take sermon notes, and communicate with ministry groups and teams.

That means when you wonder, What time was that event? Where do I sign up? What was Sunday’s sermon about? How do I send in a prayer request?—the answer may already be right in your pocket.

Stay Up to Date
One of the simplest benefits of the app is helping you know what is happening at Covenant.

The Events Calendar lets you see upcoming services, studies, gatherings, and special events, and in many cases you can register directly through the app. Church news and announcements are also available there, so you can catch up even if you missed something on Sunday.

We especially encourage you to allow push notifications. Those notifications give us a simple way to share timely reminders and important updates without depending on everyone seeing an email or social media post.

Take Worship and Scripture With You
The app also helps the life of worship continue beyond Sunday morning.

You can watch or listen to previous sermons and services, read or listen to Scripture, explore reading plans, and take sermon notes right from your phone. The app can even allow you to resume an audio Bible or sermon where you previously stopped.

Maybe you want to revisit something from Sunday’s message during the week. Maybe you missed worship while traveling. Maybe you simply want Scripture available during a quiet moment in your day.

The app makes those resources easy to find.
Pray and Stay Connected With Others
Church is not simply information—it is relationship.

Through the app, you can submit a prayer request and indicate whether you would like it shared only with the pastors or with the larger prayer team. You can also join messaging groups for ministries, classes, and teams you are part of.

Those may seem like small conveniences, but they help us remain connected to one another throughout the week.

When someone needs prayer, when a ministry team needs to communicate, or when a group needs to share an update, the app can help make those connections easier.

How to Download and Install the Covenant Church App
Getting started only takes a few minutes.
If you use an Apple iPhone or iPad:

1. Open the App Store on your device.
2. In the search bar, type Covenant Church LaGrange. Be sure to include LaGrange so you find the correct church app.
3. Tap Get to download the app. You may be asked for your Apple ID password or to use Face ID or Touch ID.
4. Once the app is installed, tap the app icon to open it.

If you use an Android phone or tablet:

Don’t Forget to Sign In
After you install the app, there is one more important step: create an account and sign in.
You will be asked to enter your name, a valid email address, and a password. Your email address needs to be valid because you will be asked to confirm it.

Signing in is important because it helps unlock the more personal and interactive parts of the app—things like messaging groups, prayer requests, registrations, profile information, giving tools, and other features connected to your account. The app’s profile area also allows you to manage contact information and giving details.

So if you have already downloaded the app but have never signed in, take a moment to do that. It will help you get much more out of the app.

One Simple Way to Participate More Fully
Our hope is not simply that more people will download the Covenant app.
Our hope is that it becomes a useful tool that helps us participate more fully in the life God is building among us.
It can help us stay connected to worship.
It can help us find opportunities to grow.
It can help us pray for one another.
It can help us discover ways to serve.
And it can keep us connected to the life of the church throughout the week.

That fits naturally with who we are seeking to become together:
Worship Deeply. Grow Boldly. Live Sent.

If you haven’t downloaded the app yet, this is a great time to start.

If you already have the app, open it this week and make sure you are signed in—and while you are there, try a feature you have not used before.

Stay informed. Stay involved. Stay connected—wherever the week takes you.
