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

Thanksgiving Dinner

You are invited to CCVT's annual Thanksgiving Dinner which will be, as usual, the last Wednesday before Thanksgiving Break. That's this Wednesday! It is always so much fun and the food is always so good. So please make plans to come join us.

We are going to have turkey, of course, with mashed potatoes and gravy, green beans, corn, sweet potato casserole, rolls, corn bread or biscuits, cranberry sauce/relish, pumpkin or sweet potato pie, and more, including a lot of desserts.

Stacey and I are hosting the banquet at our house this year. We will carpool from the campus house, so if you need a ride, don't worry about it. We'll get you a ride. Just meet us at the campus house at 7:00 PM.

I hope you can make time to join us. Like I said, it is always a lot of fun, and your taste buds will enjoy it, too.

Looking forward to giving thanks to God with you,
Steve
