Chris and Donna Hyatt have been part of the Covenant Life family since the 1990s, when they first came to serve on staff. After some years away, they returned in the early 2000s—and in 2014, Chris became pastor. He also serves as one of the church's Elders. It's the kind of history that makes this place feel less like a job and more like home.
They have a powerfully redemptive story of God's reconciliation in their marriage and family—one that makes them genuinely glad to walk alongside people through whatever they're carrying. Married 39 years, they have four married children and 13 grandchildren.
Donna brings her own gifts to the community: a heart for women, a love of Scripture, and a presence that makes people feel known. She and Chris do ministry the way they do everything else—together.

Each Sunday Gathering runs about an hour and a half. We sing, we pray, we fellowship, and we hear from God's word.
If you're coming with kids, nursery care is available for newborns through age 2. Preschool (ages 2–4), Covenant Kids (grades K–3), and Upper Room (grades 4–6) join us for worship and are dismissed for their own classes during the gathering.
Our small groups meet at various times and locations throughout the week—homes around the community where people share life together between Sundays.
Our W.hole youth group for grades 7–12 meets Saturday evenings.
We also host Community Dinners on our church grounds during the summer—open to our whole church family, friends, and neighbors. No agenda. Just food and people and time together.
Each summer we have community dinners for the whole church, our neighbors, and everyone is invited.
