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

Cleaning and Cookout Saturday

'Tis the season for spring cleaning, and this Saturday that is exactly what we are going to do at the Campus House. There is a lot of indoor cleaning that needs to be done, and a lot of outdoor yard work to do, too.

Can we count on you to come help? It's a great service opportunity in the spirit of "ut prosim". You won't get a T-shirt for participating like you do with some well known service projects, but you'll have the satisfaction of a job well done, which you'll get to see every time you come to the campus house, and you'll be helping the Lord's work, which is the most important work you can possibly help, and "great will be your reward in heaven".

We'll meet at the campus house at 2pm to start divvying out the cleaning assignments. (That's d-i-v-v-y-i-n-g, not d-i-w-y-i-n-g like my arial font makes it appear on my screen. Haha.)

When it gets to be supper time we'll wrap up the cleaning and enjoy a great cookout together -- a well deserved reward for an afternoon's hard work. We'll probably play a little volleyball, too, assuming we still have enough energy.

We already have volunteers bringing all of the essentials, but if you would like to bring something to pitch in, let me know and I can tell you what we already have and what might be good to bring.

Even cleaning can be fun when you are doing it with friends, and as they say, "Many hands make light work", so I hope you will come join us Saturday afternoon for some good fellowship and service time with your CCVT friends.

See you 2pm Saturday.

Spring Game Saturday


Wanna go watch VT's football team scrimmage at the "Spring Game" this Saturday?

We are meeting at 2pm at the campus house to walk on over and get some good seats together and watch the team warm up and stuff before the scrimmage actually starts at 3. The weather forecast is awesome! Looks like this is going to be a great year to watch the Spring Game.

Hope you can join us.
