As pastors take time to develop relationships, doors open for training, ministry and greater Kingdom exploits than congregations can achieve on their own.

It is our goal to help identify and exercise the premises God has set forth in His Word that will give us clarity in our call to action as believers.

Join us at the second volunteers’ meeting on
November 10!

Our first Covenant for New England Volunteer Meeting was inspiring! Over 50 people from Massachusetts, Connecticut and New Hampshire met at Congregación León de Judá on September 8 in Boston: believers who are in love with the Lord, who want to pray for the Church, work on behalf of the Kingdom and impact our culture for Christ.

Please join us for our second meeting on Saturday, November 10, which will include a time of prayer and worship for revival, followed by a break and the volunteer discussion. See Pastor Miranda's warm welcome to participants.

Chris and Dave Funnell

Volunteers are coming at a strategic moment. We have had some wonderful volunteers so far working with us, but we need fresh energy, fresh life, fresh gifting to come. Many of you will help us to advance this one step further. And we’re open to where God leads as you bring in new energies. Currently there are seven volunteer areas.

The substantial vision and goals of Covenant for New England have been refined over time by the Spirit. Note the increased emphasis on "a sound spirituality" and "the cultivation of leadership".

Please come to either or both of these 2-hour sessions and invite a friend to come with you!

Town Facilitator: A “Volunteers for Revival” position

New England towns are natural focal points for communication and prayer. Recognizing this fact is one of the keys to working together in our region for the glory of God’s revival in New England.

Covenant for New England is seeking Town Facilitators who will help with both prayer and communication pertaining to their town. If you live in a large town (25,000 people or more) you will want to identify a smaller community within your town for which you can be the Facilitator.

Here are specific things you will do if you become a Town Facilitator:

1. Pray for the pastors and churches in your town by name.

2. Get acquainted with and provide information to pastors, churches and individuals in your town about Covenant events, conferences, materials, etc.

3. Update your Coordinator on important issues and events in your town so Intercessors and Steering Committee members can pray in agreement with you.

4. Recommend pastors who could be invited to write a short devotion to be distributed as one of the weekly New England Devotions Series to subscribers via email.

If you’re interested, please apply here: Town Facilitator Application.

Town Facilitators Coordinator
