The Covenant Christian School Boys Varsity
Basketball team opens it season with a home game
on Thursday November 9th against Dale County
Christian
at 6:30 pm. The home opener for the Boys JV and
Girls Varsity will be Tuesday November 14th against
Tallavana Christian. The complete home schedule for
all three teams is available in downloadable pdf
format below. Click on the link to view and print the
schedule. Season tickets for
all twelve regular season dates (31 total games) are
available at $30 for adults and $10 for students,
children 5 and under are free.
With six seniors graduating from last years’ team, the
Boys Varsity will have many new faces this year.
This will be a much younger and smaller team. Team
Captain, Jon Cummings is the only senior. Returning
starters Justin Schaefer and Ben Bingham are
expected to lead the Lions. Fortunately, the team
has a lot of speed and quickness to help overcome
their lack of size. Coach Robb Moss is also expecting
several players who were part of last seasons’
conference champion JV team to play major roles this
year including Adam Sansom, Zach Bingham and Ryan
Brown.
The Girls Varsity has won the conference
championship the last two seasons, but with only
three girls returning from last years’ squad, they will
have a big challenge this year. Coach Ty Farris has
taken over as head coach replacing Kenneth Grizzell
who moved to Tennessee. Rachel Davis and Liz
Farris are returning starters, but three sophomores
will play major roles; Jesse Paris, transfer Chelsea
McDill and homeschooler Haley Sheffield. Just like
the boys, this will be a much younger and smaller
team than we have had the last couple seasons.

LADIES' CLASS (Room 1, Library)
The ladies class will be starting a new Bible study on Sunday, November 12th. They just completed an extended study of the entire Bible (all 66 books!) from Genesis to Revelation. Look for an announcement soon on the new topic. And, of course, ladies of all ages are invited! BIBLE BOOK STUDY (Room 18,
Computer Lab)
This class is wrapping up their study on the Old Testament book of Isaiah, and plans to study the New Testament “Letter to the Hebrews” next. Hebrews takes an in-depth look at the ongoing ministry of Jesus to encourage believers to become mature in Christ and put away their spiritual dullness. CONCISE THEOLOGY (New class,
Fellowship Hall)
This new class is a series of short studies on essential teachings of the Christian faith. Each week we take a look at a different topic, seeing what the Bible says about God, us, and life in relation to Jesus Christ. The goal is to know what the Bible teaches on these primary topics and how that affects our beliefs and actions. This class is intended as an introduction to the Christian faith for those who are new to Christ, but it is helpful for those who want to know more about what we believe, and to those who want a “refresher” course on the great doctrines of our faith. |
