Dear CCOV Family,

Hope all of you are well and staying cool!  One way to cool off (at least in our heads) is to think ahead to Christmas.  I wanted to let you know that our church is invited to participate in an “Interchurch Christmas Bazaar” at St. Anthony on the Desert Episcopal Church on Dec. 2-3 that is open to the public on Saturday, Dec. 2.  Other invited area churches include McDowell Mountain and St. Bernard’s.  Each church would host its own bazaar and benefit financially from its own sales.  The community event would receive advertisement in traditional and social media sites.  The aim is to develop a sense of community, especially with all the new housing around us.  It may be a nice way to sell some items we don’t need and possibly some baked goods or anything else you can think of.  I imagine it would also be a great way to let folks in the community know about our wonderful CCOV!  Please let me know ASAP if any of you are interested participating in this event, and I will make the necessary contacts. 

I look forward to seeing you all Sunday!

Blessings,

Rev. Sandi
