What is now Covenant Fellowship Baptist Church began in January of 1981 with a small group of people meeting in a home.   In June of 1981, L.C. Campbell was officially called to serve as the first Pastor of Covenant Fellowship, and in the early days, they met for worship in the Howard Johnsons on US1.  

Later that year, the church purchased the 18+ acres that has been "home" to the ministry since that time.  They broke ground on February 28, 1982, and held their first worship service in the new building on Easter Sunday of 1984.  The Lord continued to bless the ministry of the church, and in the early 90's, an education building was added to give the ministry room to grow.

Covenant's current pastor, Matt Price, has been at Covenant since June of 1996.  Matt was initially called as Associate Pastor of Student Ministry, a job that he loved and expected to do for much longer than he actually did.  In December of 1997, when L.C. took a full time position as a chaplain for the Martin County Sheriff's department, Matt stepped in to preach until a new Senior Pastor was called.  The Lord had other plans, and in July of 1998, the church voted to call Matt as Pastor.  

Since that time, Covenant has been blessed with a number of Associate Pastors and excellent support staff who have deepened Covenant's ministry and helped to broaden its reach into the community.

To this day, Covenant aspires to be the kind of church where people matter more than programs, where leadership models servanthood, and where we demonstrate our love for God by loving each other and serving our community as God enables us.  Ultimately, the people make the church what it is, so every member of Covenant is helping to write the future "history" of Covenant.  

Together, we aspire to be a family of believers whose connection with Christ transforms our priorities, our relationships, and our communities.
