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

Joint Worship Extravaganza!

And now for an important message from Michael Starr: 

Hello everyone,
Hope your week is moving along fantabulisticly!!! I'd like to take this opportunity to fashion a 100% student created announcement regarding tomorrow's upcoming event. 

And that event is......(drum roll).......A DELUXE JOINT WORSHIP EVENT EXTRAVAGANZA!!!!!!!

That's right, you read that correctly.  CCVT and the Ambassadors for Christ are teaming up to produce twice the worship in half the time that we'd be able to accomplish otherwise as individual ministries.  So grab your singin' shorts and plan on joining us at the campus house at 7 pm esttomorrowApril 17th, 2015 AD

Things that will happen:
1. Short Devo by yours truly
2. Worship Singing (It'll be a Capella, but don't worry, we have excellent leaders in the Ambassadors to drown out those of us who are a Capella-ly challenged.)
3. Prayer Time
4. Optional Celebratory Pilgrimage to Frosty Parrot 

Still not convinced you should come?  I'm gonna give you 3 good reasons why ya oughta join us!
1. Worshiping God is a great way to strengthen the bond between each other and God
2. It's an excellent chance to fellowship with other Christians outside of our campus ministry, which is both encouraging and we'll have some new friends around campus!

So be sure to join us! I guarantee it'll be worth your time.  And, since time is money, you can hold me personally and financially responsible if you feel that it was not worth your time!!  Oh, what's that?  You want to know what the 3rd reason to join us is??? Well, HA! I shall reveal the 3rd reason tomorrow at the event.  And now the curiosity will eat away at you, slowly, until you just gotta come find out. 

Your friend in time,
Michael

That is all. You are now dismissed to return to your previous activities. Thank you.

Spring Cleaning Day

Hey CCVTers, hope you are having a good week. 

Don't forget, this Saturday, April 11, starting at 10am we will be having a Spring Cleaning Day at CCVT's campus house. There is some yard work that needs to be done, as well as some indoor cleaning to do, so no matter which kind you prefer, we've got a project for you. 

The weather forecast is shaping up to be perfect! God is really blessing us with some awesome weather. It's going to be sunny and in the 50's while we are working, with a gentle breeze, and low humidity. Perfect for working outside, or inside with the windows open! 

Can we count on you to help? It's a great service opportunity in the spirit of "ut prosim". Plus you will 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", right? 

We'll meet at the campus house at 10am to start divvying out the assignments. 

When we finish our projects we'll enjoy some pizza together -- a well deserved reward for your hard work. I'm thinking we'll be done by 2pm if not sooner. 

Hey, 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 for some good fellowship and service time with your CCVT friends

See you Saturday morning. 

Steve
