Our year begins from the fall and end during the summer. Grace Covenant Church follows the calendar year of most Philadelphia area colleges and universities.

Servants' Retreat

The kick off to the year begins with the Servants' Retreat. Here the leaders of the family groups and ministries come to worship and praise in order to prepare for the busy upcoming year.

Intro Nights and Dinners

Our church hosts many introduction nights for colleges such as Penn, Drexel, USP, Temple, and Bryn Mawr. We also hold introductions for new members to the Emmaus young adult groups and new married couples to the church.

Passion Week

Before we rejoice with the Lord's resurrection on Easter, we would like to remember His last week before going to the cross. Please pray that our hearts would be ready to remember our Lord's sacrifice.

Mini Olympics

This event brings together the whole church in a huge field day competition. Family groups compete in events such as sack races, tug of war and other original creations. This is a great way for Family Groups to bond and start the year off.

OIL Conference

The annual One In Love Conference gathers eight hundred to a thousand college students and young adults every year. More information can be found on the OIL website.

Congregational Retreat

Grace Covenant Church's annual Congregational Retreat is held in the spring semester. We often have special speakers come from all over the United States to come preach the Word of God. This is a time of rejuvination and blessings.

Praise Night

This is the night where we worship the Lord through skits, songs, and body worships. Family groups and classes are often involved in this undertaking.

Graduation Night

This is the night where we celebrate the graduation of some of our brothers and sisters. We would also like to send some of our graduates off with our blessings.

Summer Events

Because of the relaxed nature of this time, the church sponsors outings and fun events. Family Groups will continue during the summer.
