Easter at Community Covenant
Sunday, April 5 | 10:00 AM | Outdoor Service

Easter is a celebration of resurrection-of hope breaking through darkness and new life rising in the name of Jesus.

Join us for a special outdoor Easter service as we gather to worship, celebrate, and remember the hope we have in the risen Christ. Whether Community Covenant has been your church home for years or you're just beginning to explore faith, there's a place for you here.

We'll have chairs set up outside, but you're also welcome to bring a blanket and get comfortable.

Invite cards will be available at the Connect Table, so feel free to grab a few and invite a friend, neighbor, or family member to join you.

Let's come together with joy and anticipation as we celebrate the risen King.

Candidate for Pastor of Worship and Executive Pastor
Galen Dang

We are thrilled that Galen Dang will be leading us in worship on April 12!

After a lot of prayer and much discussion, our Worship Pastor Search Committee recommended Galen to our Leadership Board as their proposed candidate to join our pastoral staff. Subsequently, the Leadership Board held fruitful discussions with Galen, and formally selected him as its candidate to serve as our Worship Pastor and as our Executive Pastor.

Galen grew up in our church and is married to Hannah, another Santa Barbara native, and they have three children. Plan on being here on April 12. "O magnify The Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together!" Psalm 34:3

Easter Egg Hunt This Sunday!

Our Community Covenant Easter Egg Hunt is happening this Sunday right after the service, and we can't wait to celebrate with you! Kids, be sure to bring your basket so you can be part of the fun. We'll have both a younger kids section and an older kids section so everyone can enjoy the festivities.

Thank you to everyone who picked up eggs to help make this year's Easter Egg Hunt special-we love seeing our church come together in simple, meaningful ways like this. Your small act of filling eggs is going to create a really fun and memorable moment for the kids in our church and community.

Thanks again for being part of it-we can't wait to see it all come together!

Easter Sunday Coffee & Fellowship

Looking for a great way to connect after church this Easter? We've got you covered.

Right after our 10:00 AM Easter Service, stick around on the back lawn-where the Easter Egg Hunt will be taking place-for coffee, tasty treats, and meaningful conversation.

This week the church is providing all the goodies, so all you need to do is show up, enjoy something sweet, and celebrate Easter with friends, family, and our church community.

This is a great opportunity to linger a little longer, connect with someone new, and rejoice in the hope we have because Jesus is risen.

Come enjoy fellowship, food, and the joy of resurrection morning-we can't wait to see you there.

Good Friday Update

As we journey toward Easter, Good Friday (April 3) invites us to slow down and stand in the tension of the cross. It's a sacred space-a moment to remember the cost of love and the depth of grace.

In past years, churches across Santa Barbara-including ours-have gathered for a shared Good Friday service. This year, that citywide gathering is taking a pause, and Community Covenant will not be hosting a Good Friday service of our own.

If you would like to attend a Good Friday service, we encourage you to join one of these neighboring churches:

• Santa Barbara Community Church - Friday at 7:00 PM
• Ocean Hills Covenant Church - Friday at 6:00 PM

Good Friday is a powerful moment in the story of our faith. Before we celebrate the joy of Easter Sunday, we pause to remember the sacrifice of Jesus and the love displayed on the cross.

Spring Concert Fundraiser - Supporting MomCo Goleta

Join us for a special evening supporting MomCo Goleta (formerly MOPS)

Enjoy a relaxed night with live music, dinner, childcare, and a silent auction featuring some great local businesses.

MomCo originally began here as Goleta MOPS, and today we still have many moms in our church who are part of it. It's been a real blessing in our community - offering encouragement, connection, and support in the season of motherhood.

If MomCo has impacted you, or if you simply want to invest in moms in our community, this is a great way to be part of what God is continuing to do through this ministry.

Explore the Christian Heritage of
Scotland, England & Ireland

Did you know that much of American Christianity was deeply shaped by historic events in Scotland, England and Ireland?

This fall, Pastor Eric will be hosting a Christian Heritage Tour to key sites throughout these countries - and you're encouraged to be a part of this meaningful journey.

2026 marks the 500th anniversary of William Tyndale's English translation of the New Testament, making this a uniquely significant time to visit the places that helped shape the faith we live today.

This trip will bring history to life as we explore the stories, places, and people God used in powerful ways - from the Reformation to the spread of the English Bible.
