Christmas
@ COV

Starting Dec 3rd - Dec 24th

Sundays in December

Christmas day doesn’t wait for us to get into the Christmas season. Ready or not, Christmas comes with all kinds of cargo. No matter how Christmas greets you we can be sure that God is in control and is leading us no matter what the scenery might be or what cargo might be delivered into our Christmas season. During the service, kids will get their train tickets and begin the Christmas Cargo Journey by train to their first station. Each week…

Sunday, December 3  @ 10am
Sunday, December 10 @ 10am
Sunday, December 17 @ 10am
Sunday, December 24 Christmas Eve  @ 10:31am (notice the time change)

…kids will board the train and travel to another station inside our worship space to learn more about God’s faithfulness during difficult times.

Christmas Eve Dec 24th

8:30am 
Early Christmas Eve Service – designed for traditional worship experience located in the Sanctuary.

10:31am 
Late Morning Christmas Eve Service – designed for a modern worship experience in Hansen Hall.

4pm 
Cowboy Christmas Eve Service – Go back in time to the early days of Apple Valley when the “Sons of Pioneers” sang, Roy Rogers and Dale Evans would host a Christmas Eve service at Church of the Valley, and people would use their ease ways behind their Apple Valley homes to ride their horses to church because everyone knew that all the ease ways were a short cut to the Apple Valley Inn. Our local history is sometimes lost in all the hustle and bustle of Christmas. Join us under the tent to hear country Christmas music performed with horses corralled nearby. Remember to bring your cowboy hat as your “cover charge.” If you don’t have one, some will be provided for you when you arrive. Grab your family and take a great Country Christmas picture, make sure you spend some time by the ole campfire and use this time to let your kids ride the horses provided by local congregants of Church of the Valley. Don’t worry, we’ll have a few outdoor heaters should it get too cold because you really don’t want to miss this event! Feel free to ride your own horse to church that day. We’ll have hitching posts and corrals for you to use so you can “park” your horse. Wagons and vehicles are welcomed too! Hope to see ya there, partner!
