Buy a Bridge Through CovenantCares Catalog

CHICAGO, IL (November 13, 2018) – As you start your Christmas shopping list, the Covenant encourages you to consider a bridge in the Democratic Republic of Congo, chickens in Honduras, or sewing machines in India. Perhaps your loved ones would appreciate the opportunity to support a thriving business in Guatemala or help provide affordable housing to a family in Detroit.

Those are among the numerous possibilities available through the CovenantCares giving guide. Several copies have been mailed to each church this week, and additional guides can be ordered through CovBooks.com for free. The guides and other resources also can be downloaded for free.

So if you were thinking about buying a gift card to the local coffee shop to cover the cost of a couple of cappuccinos, consider giving to provide access to clean water. It’s a gift everyone will appreciate.
