Infant Crisis Services Baby Shower

New Covenant is hosting a special baby shower to gather donations for Infant Crisis Services on Sunday, November 9th in between our services from 9:30-11am in the Café! This will be a come-and-go reception to drop off donations. Thank you for your help in blessing babies and toddlers in Oklahoma City!

Cheerios (other healthy, toddler-friendly breakfast cereal)
Dry beans (pinto or white beans)
Canned chili with beans
Dry pasta (any shape)
Canned tomato pasta sauce
Applesauce
Canned corn, peas, green beans, carrots, or mixed vegetables
Canned peaches, pears, mandarin oranges, or mixed fruits

November Midweek
November 12
Join us for a three-week class on Creating a Rule of Life this November. A Rule of Life is a helpful tool to organize your life in order to live intentionally in your apprenticeship to Jesus. We will walk through what exactly this means and then get to work creating our Rule of Life together in class. This class is a seamless next step if you have been a part of Renovating our Hearts or the Renovation of the Heart classes and teachings. We will meet on November 5, 12, and 19, at 6:30 pm in the Fireside Room.
A delicious dinner of pizza and salad will be served each week from 5:30-6:30 pm in the Activity Center--$5 for adults and $2 for kids. NC Kids Midweek Adventure and NC Students will continue their Wednesday night programming, as well as the Revelation Bible Study Class and other ongoing adult options.
Hospitality
As we head into the holiday season, we’re looking to add more greeters and ushers to our Sunday morning team! This is an ongoing opportunity to serve. It’s easy, meaningful, and only asks for a once-a-month commitment (though you can serve more often if you’d like). With so many new faces visiting, we want to continue to be a church that is inviting and approachable. If you’re interested, talk to Abbi Blair or email ablair@newcov.tv.
OWLS Coffee Talk
November 14
Come for good coffee and great conversation on Friday, November 14. This event is hosted by our OWLS ministry, but open to all! We will have coffee and donuts and meet in the NC Café at 9:30 am! Our special speaker is Cinda Covel, Director of Public Arts, Edmond Fine Arts. Cinda will be discussing the Uncommon Ground Sculpture Park scheduled to open in 2026. Please join us!
Baptism Sunday
November 16
On Sunday, November 16, we are having a Baptism Sunday! During our services we will be baptizing anyone who has not been baptized but is ready to make the public profession, and any child who has not been baptized. Baptism is a huge part of who we are. We want to make sure that we communicate the power of the sacrament in a way that glorifies God and unites the body!
If you or your child have not been baptized but would like to be baptized, let us know; please contact Abbi Blair at ablair@newcov.tv or call 405.562.3212 today!

Edmond Community Thanksgiving Dinner
November 24 & November 27
You can help make this year's meal possible by carving turkeys in the New Cov Kitchen the week of Thanksgiving and/or being part of the New Covenant greeting team on Thanksgiving day at UCO!
New Covenant has the opportunity to bring the angelic presence of our outreach to show God's Love and how His disciples are made through greeting those who will be attending the Edmond Community Thanksgiving Dinner. We need 10 volunteers to welcome and seat those that will be served.
You can also serve on Thanksgiving Day at UCO. They are in need of people to set-up, serve, and clean up.
