Christmas Events
Season’s Greetings,
Christmas, the time when we celebrate the birth of Jesus, is a wonderful time of the year. Even though many things have been very difficult for most of us this year, we still wish to take this opportunity to share our love and caring spirit with our loved ones and those who are less fortunate.
As we all know, COVID has kept us from sponsoring many of the activities that we have planned in the past to get together and enjoy the season. We are praying that 2022 will be the year of getting back together. However, this year we are going to do as many activities as the Pastor and Leadership Team feel are safe, to show our love and Christmas Spirit to each other and to our pastor, his wife and daughter. We are asking our CV Family to please get a card or write a note letting Pastor Andy and his family know how much you love them. Please enclose a love offering as well. We will have a special gift bag for those who worship LIVE so that you may drop your card in on that Sunday.
If you are going to be worshiping on LIVE FEED, please mail the card along with your Christmas love offering directly to: Rev. and Mrs. Andy Lambert, 970 River Rd., Cropwell AL 35054. We hope you will be able to do this so they will receive your offering by Sunday, December 19, 2021 or before.
Many of our church family have returned to worship “in house”. God is blessing and the Holy Spirit is moving in a wonderful way in our worship as we sing praises and listen to Pastor deliver the Word of God in a powerful way. There is just nothing as great as being together in worship with our spiritual brothers and sisters, in the presence of the Spirit of God. There are still many who are having to worship with us on LIVE FEED and we thank God for this avenue of worship.
This year, if you have any Christmas Cards for our CV Family, you are welcome to bring them to any service for you to hand them out. If you know that someone to whom you wish to send a Christmas card does not worship in-house, there will be a basket in the foyer to place them in and Pastor Andy will deliver them. We will have some mailing labels run off and placed on the information table in the lobby for anyone who wishes to use them. You also have access to the Church Directory on our CV CONNECT mobile app and there are printed versions on the table as well.
- December 12 at 5:00pm ~ Come join us for a special night of worship. We will work our way through the Christmas Story, by worship and the Word. Pastor Andy will end the night by leading us in communion. All are welcome. We are expecting God to do great things.
- December 13 at 10:30 am ~ We will be going caroling to many of our church family who are shut-ins and others. This will be a time of fun as well as ministry to those who are unable to attend church. Meet at church at 10:30am and we will leave from there. For information see or call Sarah Quesenberry at (205) 753-1802.
- December 19 at 11:00 am. ~ During regular morning service, come for special time to honor Pastor Lambert, Sis Kerri, and Kati with a special Christmas Offering. We will also enjoy a great time of worship in song and the Word.
- December 19 afternoon ~ Student Pastors Michael and Elizabeth will be taking the student to a trampoline house for a fun Christmas celebration! They will enjoy an awesome time of fellowship together!
- December 20 at 5:30 pm ~ Join us for a time for a Church Family Christmas Dinner. All who wish to, please meet at City Market & Grill (in front of Walmart) for a time of fellowship and dinner.
- CV MEN ~ be on the lookout for information about upcoming breakfast with the Pastor.
- Also, pay close attention to the social media, your texts, your email, our website, and the announcements before and after service on the screens for any changes or updates.
God bless you and Merry Christmas
Yours’ Truly,
Emory Davis
