Tabernacle was founded as a “holy hill” of God in 1890 and has been a beacon light in the historic City of Petersburg, Virginia more than 127 years. Our church is a “Concerned Church for ALL People,” and ours is a holistic approach to ministry, offering a broad range of religious programs for people of all ages. If you are new to the area and in need of a church home or just visiting our city, please come and worship with us.

Covenant Church is a vibrant multiracial, inclusive faith community centered in Jesus Christ. We are a dynamic congregation seeking to do God’s will, led by God’s love, offering God’s extravagant hospitality to all people regardless of social, economic or marital status, race, ability, sexual orientation, ethnicity, age, or previous religious affiliation.

We invite all who are seeking to know Jesus Christ into the full life and ministry of the church. This includes being welcome to the worship, sacraments, fellowship, pastoral care, and educational opportunities of the church, and also to the responsibilities of membership, service and leadership within the church.

As a congregation, we are committed to living together in mutual respect as we seek to grow in Christ, celebrate God’s love, and extend God’s love to others.
