Exciting News!

Thank you for joining us in prayer and giving towards this next chapter. As you know, we are thrilled to announce the launch of the For Such a Time as This building campaign! Thanks to the generous contributions from committed CVCA supporters, over $12 million has already been committed toward our $16 million goal. To learn more about this important and exciting endeavor, check out our new campaign webpage HERE.

Honoring Paul Muklewicz

Please join us in prayer and support of the Muklewicz family.  Over the past 14 years, Paul has made a lasting impact on the lives of CVCA students and families. We will honor Paul as a disciple and beloved part of the CVCA community in several ways this week.  Students, faculty, and staff will come together for a Chapel gathering, honoring Mr. Muklewicz.  Students may wear their “4Muk” shirts this week. 

If you were unable to purchase a shirt in the fall, you may do so now HERE. Place your order by Wednesday at noon to have it ready for pickup by the time school ends on Wednesday, April 1. Anything ordered after Wednesday at noon will need to be picked up at Big Frog in Stow. $10 of every shirt goes directly to the Muklewicz family.
