Speaking this week is Cecilia Liversidge, our Family & Women's Ministries Pastor, with Faithful Anyway. This Sabbath, we’ll explore what happens to our faith when God’s work doesn’t unfold according to our expectations. Through the story of John the Baptist and Jesus’ response to his questions, we’ll discover that moments of uncertainty and disappointment don’t have to weaken our faith — they can deepen and strengthen it. We’ll be challenged to remain faithful even when we understand, and especially when we don’t. We’ll consider three truths: 1) Our faith is challenged when our expectations are interrupted; 2) Our faith is shaped when our expectations are interrupted; 3) Our faith is sharpened when our expectations are interrupted.

Parents, we love having you and your children in church, but we invite and urge you to keep your kids from running up and down aisles and in the lobby. This is not only an issue of respect and reverence, but also an issue of safety. Thank you! 

Forks and Friendship will be hosted by Tabby Coto’s team. Join us this Saturday immediately after the church service for our weekly potluck. Enjoy a wonderful time of food, fellowship, and getting to know one another. Everyone is welcome! If you are a CVC member, please bring several dishes to share — your contribution helps make our potluck a blessing for everyone. We look forward to seeing you there!

Upcoming potlucks:
August 22 - Forks and Friendship hosted by Carol Silva’s team
August 29 - Forks and Friendship hosted by Renata Richardson’s team
September 5 - Potluck on Prescott. Plan now for our annual tradition!
September 12 - Forks and Friendship hosted by Becky Krueger’s team

Canvas meets again this Sabbath at 6pm as we continue season 3, "Walking with the Son: Common Table." Pr. Yonny will break the Word to us as we continue to explore what it means to remain in Jesus — living, listening, and moving with Him in community. God has been moving in our community, and we don't want you to miss out on experiencing this together! Bring a friend, and we'll see you there! 

Man Camp is back, September 25–27 at Woodland Acres — a tough, gritty weekend for young men in 7th–12th grade built around this year's theme, Legacy. Dads are also encouraged to attend. Registration is $35 for students and $40 for adults, and you'll want to sign up by September 1 to guarantee a T-shirt in your size! Register at the link here. 

2026-2027 Pathfinder Registration: CVC Trailblazers Pathfinder in-person registration will be held Wednesday August 19, 5:30-7pm in Heartland Hall.  Pathfinders focuses on developing young people's physical, mental, and spiritual well-being through activities like camping, survival skills, leadership training, outreach programs, and interactive learning. If you are interested in signing up your 5th grader to 12th grader (senior) for Pathfinders or interested in helping out please stop by Registration or contact Jarred Decker at jdeckerc10@gmail.com or text/call 402.540.6483. 

Reminder: Move-Up Sabbath is tomorrow! It's the first day in your child's new Sabbath School class. Please log in to KidCheck to create or update your family's profile so your child is registered in the correct classroom. Need assistance? Visit the Kids Ministry Booth in the lobby. We'd be happy to help with KidCheck, answer your questions, or help you sign up as a classroom helper or volunteer.

A special thank you to the following people who came to help with the road cleanup at Woodland Acres last Sunday morning: Jarred Decker, Tim Heam, Randy Horst, Dan McNeally, Charlie Simonds, and Emery Venus! It was a big job and your efforts have made it much smaller. Thank you again, SO much!

Aug. 22 will be the next Woodland Acres Vespers. Come on out and join us for a potluck supper at 5:30pm and then worship with Pastor Cecilia at 7pm. Burgers, tableware and cold drinks will be provided; please bring your favorite outdoor food to share and a chair for around the firepit. (Our next vespers will be on Sept 5) Everyone is welcome! 

Start planning now to walk where Jesus walked during the 2000th anniversary of His baptism and ministry. Pastor Rich and Pastor Simon invite you to join them June 13-22, 2027, for eight days in Israel with extensions to Jordan and Egypt. Check out the details at the link here.
