Salem Covenant is a place where we seek to integrate the faith and values we hold dear with our everyday lives. The Covenant Church has no formulated or established creed except its simple confession of faith in Jesus Christ as revealed in Holy Scripture. We believe in a personal and vital relationship with Jesus Christ as Lord, brought about by the work of the Holy Spirit. For a fuller explanation about our faith, read the Covenant Affirmations.

As is our tradition, Salem will be holding two services on Christmas Eve.

4:00 p.m. Family Service
11:00 p.m. Candlelight Service

The Salem Choir Christmas concert will be held during the worship service on Sunday, December 14. The service begins at 10:45 a.m. All are welcome to attend.

The Salem Super Seniors’ annual Christmas Smorgasbord will be held Tuesday, December 9, at 11:00 a.m. A short program will precede the dinner. All folks AARP age and up are invited to attend this enjoyable event.

Each person planning to attend is asked to bring one or two items of the food choices. Sign up by November 9th on the sheet that can be found on the kiosk in the narthex, to indicate what you plan to bring. Couples, please sign up for each person, either for two items or a double amount of one thing. For those unable to bring food, the cost is $7.00 per person, payable in advance to Julia Johnson or Lois Carlson, to help cover additional expenses of the dinner.

The reservation deadline is Wednesday, December 3.

All members, please plan to attend this important meeting immediately after the worship service on December 7.

The Worship & Music Commission is once again hosting an all-church Christmas decorating party. On November 30, immediately following the morning worship service, we invite EVERYONE—families, retirees and youth—to join us in creating a beautiful atmosphere for our Advent Season. We ask that you once again bring an ornament, one that represents you or your family, to place (donate) on the tree in the narthex. We will work first and then we will have a soup & bread lunch in the Fellowship Hall. There is a sign-up sheet on the bulletin board or you may call the church office, as we need a head count for lunch. We encourage your participation in this time of fun and working together.
