Thank you for the many donations to the Canyon View Library the last few years.  The library shelves are quite full, so we are working to reduce inventory by keeping only one copy of most titles.  We are also removing some books and series that are more appropriate for public libraries than church libraries. Many of those books are also available online.  A list of FREE BOOKS is available sorted by Title and by Author.  If you see books you want to take home for yourself or give as a gift this year, then please email your selections to Lisa Caswell, Librarian, at cvcoclibrary@gmail.com.  I can make arrangements with you to pick up your selections.  These books/materials will be donated or discarded after January 1, so this may be your last chance to acquire some valuable books.

(I cannot vouch for content or recommend particular books that I have not read.  We will accept your book reviews on any book in the library and may publish reviews in the bulletin in the future.)

This is definitely a different Back to School season.  As in the past, we’ve decided to
help with Supply needs for 3 schools:

Ross, Carson, and Linda Vista Elementary Schools.

These schools are also served by our Blue Bag food Ministry. 

A list of suggestions and donation bins will be available in the Canyon View foyer soon.  For now, you can contribute pencils, pens, crayons, markers, and wide-ruled notebook paper/composition books.  Monetary donations will also be accepted.

A small storage area at each school will allow a staff member to accompany students to “shop” for their needed supplies.

Thanks in advance for your continued generosity.

Due to inclement weather conditions, we have moved the bible classes and courtyard service inside, starting Sunday, January 3rd, 2021. We will resume courtyard service when the weather permits.
SERVICE HAS NOT BEEN CANCELED. WE WILL STILL WORSHIP.

Join us for worship service in the auditorium or parking lot. You will still be able to tune in from your vehicle but we will not have visual aids at this time. Bible classes will also be held inside. Here is our schedule:

• 9:00 am Bible Classes
  • Auditorium: All ages.
  • Rooms 1 & 2: Ages 3 years to 5th grade.
  • Teen Room: With Paul & Arlene.
• 10:00 am Worship Service in the auditorium with safe distancing. Please wear your mask.
• 10:00 am Online Worship Service on our Facebook page. To see where the video will be posted Click Here.

COVID-19 Update

Dear Canyon View Family,

As many of you have heard, the US Supreme Court has recently issued a couple of rulings indicating that some of the restrictions placed on churches are not constitutional.  At Canyon View, we have worked hard to ensure that we are in compliance with the law.  That is why we are outside Sunday mornings.  However, the Elders are aware that soon the weather will not be conducive to having class and worship outdoors.  At that time, we will move worship and class indoors.  This move may happen with little or no notice.

When the move happens, we will continue to broadcast services via the FM transmitter for the drive-in service. However, our brothers and sisters in their cars will not be able to see the preacher or song leader.  As before, when we move indoors, we will wear our masks and maintain social distancing.

The Elders understand that our members have different personal health concerns, different tolerances for risk, different views on the virus, and different understandings of our call to worship.  We will continue to offer the online worship for those who are at a higher risk.

God is in control.  There have been viruses and diseases from the time before Christ.  Viruses likely spread among Christians during the first century as well.  God knew the coronavirus would come.  We believe he knew that churches would face tough decisions on how to respond.  We will continue to worship without fear—but not recklessly because the virus is real.

We constantly pray for the congregation and for wisdom.

In Christian love,

The Elders of Canyon View Church of Christ
