CHICAGO, IL (February 20, 2006) – Hardly a week goes by that we do not receive a few comments from readers on stories published as part of the Covenant online news report.
We will share from time to time some of those responses generated through the “comments” link attached to each published story. This kind of feedback is very helpful to our Covenant News Service staff as we seek to identify and publish stories of great interest to a broad spectrum of online readers of this report.
Following are comments relating to recently published stories, edited in some cases for length. To read a particular story of interest, click on the headline.
Covenanters Performing Well in Winter Olympics
Mavis Elseth of Warren, MN, writes: I really appreciate your efforts to keep us informed of Covenanters in the NEWS! Also was very interested in your coverage of Kathy Holmgren’s medical mission trip at the time of the Super Bowl. Keep up the excellent coverage!!!
Are Churches Dumping Traditions to Become ‘Relevant?’
David Adams of Laurelville, OH, writes: I agree with Jim Hawkinson’s assessment on the church needing to stay the course on what has lead us here: solid biblical preaching, etc. This is what will win sinners to Jesus and cause them to disciple others to the Lord.
Online Forums Connect CHIC Participants
Jack Repenning of Santa Clara, CA, writes: I’m so excited to see the “No Ordinary Day” forums for CHIC! You may recall, I wrote to twig y’all a bit when you added these feedback panels to the Covenant News, because that is such a small step into the ’90s. Setting up the forums is a much bigger step, and starting with CHIC is, of course, the perfect choice. I think we can declare victory: the Covenant is officially a part of the ’90s now!

AAMA September Retreat in Colorado Springs
Jamelette McNeil of Brooklyn, NY, writes: I think pastor A.R. Bernard is a powerful man. His strength and devotion in transforming lives using Jesus Christ as his confidence is not only remarkable, but very much appreciated. Pastor Bernard shows so much care and love, words can’t begin to describe it. I can testify to that because I am a member at his church and he has truly impacted my life. THANK YOU.
