Children’s Ministry Project During Worship – Sunday, October 26

This Sunday, October 26, Holy Covenant’s youngest members will be joyfully putting their faith into action! During worship, children are invited to create original Christmas card artwork that will be printed and offered at our Craft Fair on November 2 to benefit Time Out Youth, a Charlotte-based nonprofit supporting LGBTQ+ youth.

With crayons and compassion, our children will share messages of love, welcome, and hope — one card at a time.

This project is part of our Christian Education Ministry’s mission to nurture spiritual growth through creativity, generosity, and connection. Children will explore how their talents and hearts can serve others — especially those who may need a message of joy this holiday season.

👩🏽‍🎨 Who Can Participate?
Everyone! Whether your child is a weekly attendee or a first-time visitor, they are welcome to join the fun. We’ll have supplies ready and a warm space waiting for them!

💌 What Happens Next?
All of the children’s artwork will be professionally printed as greeting cards and made available at our upcoming Craft Sale. Donations collected will directly support Time Out Youth’s life-affirming programs for LGBTQ+ teens and young adults across Western North Carolina.

Through this joyful act of creation, our children are reminded that they are the Church — right now. Their voices, gifts, and compassion make a real difference in the world around them.

🕊️ Little hands can offer big love.
Join us this Sunday as our children create beauty and hope — and learn that serving others is a sacred gift.
