We make followers of Jesus and help his followers grow

Christ’s Church at Virginia Tech campus ministry

is a non-denominational Christian community of students who:

--believe Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God

--believe the Bible is the infallible Word of the one and only true God, and therefore embrace it as our first & final authority for faith & practice as it contains all the truth needed for salvation and living in Christ. (2 Timothy 3:16, Hebrews 4:12)

--strive to put our faith in action, to keep growing in our knowledge and love for God, and to transform our world by living as Jesus lived. (James 2:14-26, Colossians 1:9-12, Romans 12:1-2)

"The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God will stand forever." -- Isaiah 40:8

What Next?

Sometimes we get so caught up in the busyness of this life -- working hard to get good grades, trying to find time to exercise to take good care of our bodies, looking for a job, and all kinds of stuff -- sometimes we really don't stop to think about how soon this is all going to be over for us, and then what? What is going to happen to us after this life?

We are going to spend a whole lot more time in the next life than we spend in this one, but what we do in this life determines what happens to us in the next life, so if we are smart, we will make time to think about the next life, and make plans accordingly. We might find that we need to make some changes in our order of priorities in this life.

Tonight at Oasis we'll be taking time to study what the Bible has to say about our next life. I hope you will join us.

It all starts at 7:30pm tonight (and every Wednesday during the semester) at CCVT's campus house (directions below).

Hope to see you soon,
Steve

Directions to CCVT's campus house: If you need directions to our campus house, probably the best way to get them is to type "413 West Clay St., Blacksburg, VA" into Google maps. You'll see that our campus house is only about a block away from most of the dorms on campus, over by the Washington Street tennis courts. It's much closer than most of your classes!

If you are walking from on campus, do this: When you are standing on Washington Street between O'Shaughnessy (O'Shag) Hall and Johnson Hall you are only one short block away. Cross to the other side of the street and take the sidewalk up the hill towards VT's Cranwell International Center. (You will see a sign for Cranwell on Washington St.) VT's Tennis Courts will be on your right. As you are walking up the hill veer to your left off of the sidewalk and walk up the grassy hill. (Veer left before you get to the chain link fence with all the vines growing on it. We are on the other side of that fence.) You will see the campus house facing you. It's a two story red brick house with a big front porch and a banner on the balcony railing that says "Christ's Church @ VT Campus Ministry" -- so you'll know you found the right place once you get here! It's really pretty simple, but feel free to call me if you have any trouble: 540-552-8292.
