Cook Covenant Church’s Timber Days plans
In lieu of meeting for Sunday worship at the Covenant Church in Cook on Sunday, June 15, our Worship Team will lead Sunday Worship at the Gazebo at 11 AM that day for Timber Days. The June 15th offering will help support sending an area youngster for a week at Covenant Park Bible Camp at Park Lake near Mahtowa, MN. The special youngster will be announced on Monday, June 16, as entered in the drawing box at the Cook Covenant Booth by Sunday closing time and with the approval of their parents. The church has long supported sending kids of any background, whether or not they attend Cook Covenant, for an enjoyable, inspirational week of summer camp.
