Speaking this Sabbath is Simon Liversidge, our Lead Pastor, presenting "The Great Controversy." As Jesus tells the parable of the weeds, He reveals some things about the Kingdom of Heaven: we have an enemy (but he is not the only enemy); we are in a battle (but our part of the battle is to reflect our Maker); and we know God wins (but we do not know all the details). Jesus invites us to see His great controversy with Satan but to not fear it, because God wins. 

Forks and Friendship potluck will be hosted by Steve Ladig’s team! We encourage all visitors to join our church family to share food and fellowship. CVC members are asked to bring enough food to feed 6-8 people.

Upcoming potlucks:
November 8 - All Church potluck hosted by Terri Bartzatt’s team
November 15 - Forks and Friendship hosted by Linda Becker’s team
November 22 - Forks and Friendship hosted by Renata Richardson’s team
November 29 - Thanksgiving vacation. No potluck this Sabbath.

WOMEN OF SPIRIT: The Heart of Christmas! On December 8, from 6-8pm, join us for a beautiful evening of fellowship, festive cheer, and a heart-warming focus on service as we celebrate the season of giving! Together, we’ll reflect on Acts 20:35 — “It is more blessed to give than to receive.” This is a free event — our gift to you! But, in the spirit of the season, we invite each guest to bring non-perishable food items to help us bless local families with Christmas food baskets. Let’s gather, give, and shine the love of Jesus this Christmas! 

CVC Israel Tour 2026: After two years of war, peace is on the table and tours in Israel are in full-swing again! We have already booked our spot for the 2026 season; we're leaving June 14 with the options of only Israel, or adding Jordan and Egypt. If you stay with us for the whole tour we'll be home July 1. If you just do Israel you'll be home June 23. Join Pastor Rich and Pastor Simon as we "walk where Jesus walked," and link real places with the Bible stories you are so familiar with. It's a life-changing experience. Sign up here.

Church Family, "Prayer unites us with one another and with God. Prayer brings Jesus to our side, and gives to the fainting, perplexed soul new strength to overcome the world, the flesh, and the devil. Prayer turns aside the attacks of satan."
