Covenant congregation officially moves into its new church

On Sunday May 9, 2010, the congregation at Rainy River Evangelical Covenant Church transitioned from the house of worship on First St. to their new church building on Broadway Ave.
Since 1965, the congregation has occupied the old Mission Covenant church building on First St., over the last five years as God guided, and directed the congregation purchased the land, equipment and supplies and built the new building on Broadway Ave.
The congregation began their worship service this past Sunday at 10:30 a.m. at the building on First St. and after a few songs of praise and reflective words from Pastor Kors Pater and Gordon Armstrong proceeded together down Broadway Ave. to the new church building and continued their service.
Following the service, we fellowshipped together over lunch in their new building. Many pictures of this wonderful day are available on our website http://www.rainyriverecc.com. We encourage Rainy River to take part in what the church offers to the community and feel free to stop by and check out the new building.
