I have been asked several times about adding a spell checker for submitting website news and posting in the forums. I did some digging around the internet and found that whether you use a Mac or PC, there is a better way!

News: Rite of Passage Eve, November 24, 2007
|
|
seasongs writes "It is the weekend after Thanksgiving, and I am in great anticipation of our "Rite of Passage" Sunday. I am so proud of the young people who are candidates for adulthood through their Bible study, Christian service, testimonies, community work, and mentor activities. I feel the hand of God on all of this, and it gives me hope for the future Body of Christ. I want to say "Thank you" to the youth who recognize the value of walking in this path. Thank you to the parents who have encouraged their young people through the process. Thank you to the mentors for giving their time and their wisdom. Thank you to those who have prayed and given hours of time to research a myriad of sources to form the Rite of Passage. Much heart, wisdom, physical activity, personal finance, and effort have gone into this endeavor. Thank you to the Canyon Body for embracing this new adventure in Christ. It is crucial to train up the next generation to be followers of Christ; and I am so blessed to be part of a community that understands and embraces this. |
Thursday the 6th of September church members listened to and commented on Art Lyon's presentation of the proposed improvements and expansion to Canyon's sanctuary. You can view the presentation on this link: Canyon Community Church Expansion

News: 2006 Christmas Thing
|
|
What is a "Thing"? Answers.com says, "An object or entity that is not or cannot be named specifically." Well I can say specifically that the Christmas Thing is a "Thing."
The 2006 edition was held at Canyon Community Church for the first time. It was usually held off site because of the sheer magnitude but the pastor said that we would bring it home this year so we did! Many thanks to the technical support: Art, Chuck and the army that erected the lights and curtains for the event. Deacons. Ahh the deacons. They are blessed by their hard work. But that is not what makes the Christmas Thing special. It is the brothers and sisters in Christ with their families coming together to laugh, ponder, and enjoy the acts and perfomances and, to eat desserts and fellowship . . .
Enjoy the photos.

We are not only to renounce evil, but to manifest the truth. We tell people the world is vain; let our lives manifest that it is so. We tell them that our home is above and that all these things are transitory. Does our dwelling look like it? O to live consistent lives! --James Hudson Taylor
