The Royal Weekly

March 14, 2022

Thank You for a Wonderful Royal Evening!

Saturday’s Royal Evening was a beautiful night celebrating the Lord’s faithfulness to CVCA for over 50 years! It truly was a fun night of giving. As one guest remarked, “It was mind-blowing to see the joyful generosity of so many people to the students!” The success of the Royal Evening would not have been possible without so many parents, grandparents, alumni, and friends who volunteered, sponsored, donated, served and prayed! With over 85 student volunteers, 100 parent volunteers, and 569 guests in the Royals Fieldhouse, it was an amazing all-CVCA community event. Stay tuned for the total amount of funds raised for student tuition assistance!
