Clovis Celebrates a Year of Fellowship, Fun and Unity
CLOVIS, N.M. – In the spirit of unity and community, the Clovis Seventh-day Adventist Church had an exciting 2023, marked by fellowship and fun activities that brought their congregation closer.
The revival of their church choir, which includes both Spanish and English-speaking members, was one of their highlights. Each song performed by the choir includes lyrics in both languages. This creates a beautiful blend that ensures the participation of every member. This group has performed four enchanting songs since its debut in July. The choir enjoys harmonizing their voices in praise to the Lord.
Their involvement in shared activities did not end there. It was discovered that the church family shared a passion for sports. In August, they organized an engaging Soccer Tournament with a neighboring church, Waypoint Christian Church. It was an exhilarating match that kept members on their toes and tested their stamina. Waypoint church emerged as victors, displaying a trophy adorned with both church emblems and demonstrating a great spirit of Christ-like sportsmanship.
Undaunted by their initial defeat, the Clovis church challenged Waypoint church again in September, but in a volleyball tournament. This time, the Clovis church secured the victory, and it was a delightful moment of celebration for the congregation. With a future tiebreaker on the horizon, the excitement continues.
In essence, this year has been a time of gratitude and unity. The Clovis church cherished the opportunity to fellowship with their brothers and sisters in Christ, whether on the field or in the choir loft. As they look back on these memorable moments, the church is reminded that faith and fellowship truly strengthen the bond that they feel as a congregation.
