This administrative role (27h/wk) is vital to the functions of the church and includes everything from welcoming guests during the week and handling room reservations to pastoral and ministry support. Applicants must be detail-oriented, computer-savvy, and willing to learn. If this sounds like you or someone you know, email daniel.silva@collegeviewchurch.org as soon as possible! 
A book drive is being held from June 1 - July 1, collecting new and gently used children's books for ages 0-18.

There is a donation box and flyers with more details about the project that can be found in the CVC lobby. If you have any questions, contact katelyn.zeismer@uau.edu.

Prayer Focus: "The way to the throne of God is always open. You cannot always be on your knees in prayer, but your silent petitions may constantly ascend to God for strength and guidance. When tempted, as you will be, you may flee to the secret place of the Most High. His everlasting arms will be underneath you." (Counsels on Health, 362)

Beginning Wednesday, June 4, from 7-8pm there will be a time of intercession and prayer support in the Prayer Chapel. Join us!

Send your prayer requests and praises to Dina Horst at 402.420.5970. Thank you!
