Missionary Visit: Christina Butterworth
March 22
On Sunday March 22, Christina Butterworth will be visiting New Covenant to share about her upcoming full-time mission work in Ikelenge, Zambia, taking the gospel of Jesus Christ to remote and unreached people so that they can know Jesus for themselves and walk in the fullness of what He has given them.

Then, we will dive into 1 and 2 Peter, two of the most powerful, practical letters in the New Testament. They are not dusty theology; they are a survival guide for faithful living in a world that is not our home.

Men’s Retreat at True North Base Camp
April 30-May 3
Pastor Jay would like to invite the men of New Covenant to something meaningful.
True North is a local ministry that creates space for men to hear from God and grow as sons, husbands, fathers, and friends—through a deeper life in Jesus. They host a weekend experience called Base Camp, an “expedition of the heart,” focused on honest faith, real transformation, and becoming the men God is calling us to be.
Pastor Jay will be attending the True North Base Camp, April 30–May 3, at Camp WOW in Stuart, OK, and would love for other men from New Covenant to join him. This weekend is an opportunity to step away from the noise, lean into Christ, and grow alongside other men in a meaningful way.
While schedules are full and weekends are valuable, the investment in a renewed relationship with Christ reshapes everything—our marriages, our parenting, and the way we show up in the world.
