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

Oasis Tonight -- Dedicated

Dedicated --
That's how I would describe the students I just got done talking to on the phone about whether or not we needed to cancel Oasis tonight due to the blowing snow, high winds, and single digit wind chills. All five of them said if we had Oasis tonight, they would be here, and some of them knew of others who felt the same way. So we are not canceling Oasis tonight. We already have a confirmed core of students who will be at Oasis tonight.

Just to make sure you read that right, that means we are still meeting tonight at the campus house at 7:30 as usual.

Because the snow is blowing around so much, we are not able to keep the driveway clear, so we do have a little bit of a parking problem, but a lot of you can walk from on campus, or take the bus, or drive a 4-wheel drive vehicle, or catch a ride with someone who has a 4-wheel drive vehicle. So I think we will be able to accommodate the 4-wheel drive vehicles, but I do recommend that you either walk, take the bus, or take a 4-wheel drive. And drive carefully -- even 4-wheel drives slide on ice.

Hope you can make it tonight. Stay warm and be careful out there.
