It's only one block from the dorms -- on Clay St., one block over from Washington Street.
We overlook the tennis courts and are next door to VT's Cranwell International Center.

Who Is Invited?
Everyone's Invited.
Bring a friend or two!

Perfect! That's why we're inviting you -- we want to meet you!

You have been here before?
Perfect again! That's why we're inviting you -- so we can get to know each other better!

Do I need to bring anything?
The only thing you need to bring is -- your appetite for adventure
and a digital camera if you have one!
(Not everyone will need one -- we only need one per team.)

See you Saturday!

Welcome to VT!

If you are new to VT, we want you to know you are welcome to make CCVT campus ministry your home away from home, just like hundreds of students have before you. You see, CCVT is more than just another student organization, or place to go to church. For years, CCVT has been a place where students build some of the best friendships they have ever had with other Christian students, and in the process get the support we all need to make the adjustment to college life and get the most out of our college years. We don't just "clock-in, and clock-out" of church. We take the time to really care about each other and build one another up in the faith and in our walk with God. We want to do that for you, too, and we hope you will be willing to be a good friend to us, as well.

Since that is such a big part of what we are all about, we do a lot of fun events together, especially at the beginning of the school year, so we can all meet each other and get to know one another. Below is a list of the events we have planned for the beginning of the fall semester. Please make a note of these on your Google Calendar, Outlook, or whatever you use, and make plans to join us. We are really looking forward to meeting you and getting to know you.

Also, don't forget to join us Sunday mornings at 11am at our campus house for our weekly worship service called "Oasis".

Hope to see you soon. Here's what's coming up:

Aug. 26, Thursday -- Dinner at Steve and Stacey's house. Space is limited so, sorry, but this is by invitation only. Are you one of the lucky ones?

Oasis Moves to Sunday Morning

CCVT is excited to announce that our main weekly worship service, which we call "Oasis" is moving from Wednesday nights to Sunday mornings at 11am at CCVT's campus house.

This change will be a blessing in many ways, but there are a couple of especially notable ones. First, more students will be able to participate on Sunday morning than were able to on a week night which often presented schedule conflicts with exams, study sessions, homework, and other events. Second, this solves the problem of transportation to Sunday morning worship for students who don't have vehicles. Many of the local churches are too far away to walk and are not served by bus routes. CCVT's campus house is one block from the dorms and the nearest bus stop.

Our first Oasis at the new day and time will be Sunday, August 22, at 11:00 AM. And afterward we are going to enjoy a home cooked dinner together. It's all FREE, so please come join us in this exciting new chapter in the life of CCVT.
