Welcome to another meaningful week at Community Covenant Church! Before we look ahead to this Sunday, we want to take a moment to say thank you to everyone who helped make our Easter service so special. From our worship team, to those who shared their stories, to our hospitality team and incredible kids workers-it was a beautiful day, and each of you played a part in making it so meaningful.
This Sunday, we're again excited to gather together as a church family to begin a new series on Keepers of the Gospel: Reflections on Nehemiah.
This Sunday, we move back in time some 400 years before the resurrection of Jesus to the time of Nehemiah. There, a wall is built by the combined efforts of God's people. Have you discovered what part is yours?
God is moving at Community Covenant, and we encourage you totake a moment to explore the updates below and see where God might be inviting you next.
LIFE AT COMMUNITY COVENANT
Candidate for Pastor of Worship and Executive Pastor
Galen Dang
We are thrilled that Galen Dang will be leading us in worship this Sunday!
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 this Sunday to meet Galen.

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.
