Hi CVCYouth Family, 

It is a joy to share with you the plans for CVCYouth to begin meeting in-person once again. It has been a long time, but we are excited to get back into a regular rhythm of worshiping and gathering together. 

For an overview of the information below, I produced the following video that will walk you through the details and the reasoning behind our choices.

START DATE
All CVCYouth activities including Collide, Impact, and LifeGroups will begin on Sunday September 13th. High School LifeGroups will begin on September 14th. Please visit cvcyouth.org for more details. 


MASKS & SAFETY
Masks will be required at all CVCYouth events including Collide, Impact, and LifeGroups. We will give the kids space to take a mask breaks when necessary and will also utiloize the outdoors while it is still warm. We will also be providing hand sanitizer and extra masks in case someone forgets. If your student has medical issues that will not allow them to wear a mask, please contact me at [email protected] so that we can develop alternative plans. 


COLLIDE

Collide (our ministry to middle school students currently starting grades 6-8) will begin meeting once again on Sunday mornings. We will, however, need to spread out between two services. 

6th, 7th, & 8th grade girls will meet during the 9:30am service.
6th, 7th, & 8th grade boys will meet during the 11:00am service. 

We will meet in the lower level worship venue instead of 104/106. This space will give us some additional room to spread out and also allows us put up the walls to create spaces for LifeGroups.


IMPACT

Impact (our large-group gathering for high school students) will happen on the 2nd Sunday of every month. We are asking high school students to attend one of the morning worship services as their primary worship environment. Pastor Joe will begin to lead worship and preach in the CVC morning services on a monthly basis. Please watch the CVCYouth Fall 2020 Launch video to learn more. 

Impact LifeGroups will begin the week of September 13th. There are four LifeGroup options. Visit cvcyouth.org/impact to see where LifeGroups meet and to find contact information for the leaders in charge of these groups. 


EVENTS

We are currently not planning on hosting any overnight events between now and December. We are working to develop local opportunities for Fall Retreat and will have more details in the weeks to come!


TRANSITION FAMILIES

For those of you who have students going into 6th grade and 9th grade this year, thank you for rolling with the punches. It was great to see so many of you at the Makin' Moves" event in July. Our LifeGroup leaders in both Collide and Impact and looking forward to meeting your students. PLEASE take the time to get to know the LifeGroup leaders for your students.

Collide parents, please visit with your students on the September 13th and take a few minutes to meet the leaders if you have not done so already.

New Impact parents, please take the time to go in to the LifeGroup where your son or daughter chooses to attend, meet the leaders, and exchange contact information. The parent/leader connection is vital to success in these high school years.
