SCHOOL-WIDE ANNOUNCEMENTS

A Culture of Generosity

What does a Culture of Generosity mean?  Generosity has been part of our culture at CVCA since our formation over 55 years ago. CVCA’s existence is a testament to the faithfulness of God, and our story is filled with triumph, hardship, and unwavering dedication to a shared vision and persistent faith. With each new school year comes a new chapter filled with new students, new families, new challenges, and new opportunities for us to prayerfully ask God to use us, our gifts, and CVCA to make an impact for His kingdom and His purpose. It is our hope and prayer that God will continue to show us ways to be generous with our time, our talents, and our treasure for His glory.

Our Prayer: Father God, guide us to be faithful stewards of the resources You’ve entrusted to us, for we know that all we’ve been blessed with is ultimately Yours. Let our generosity reflect Your own, showing the world Your boundless love and grace. Help us to be boldly counterculture and embody true generosity as those who follow Christ. Teach us to give selflessly and sacrificially, and may our community continue to be a living example of generosity and joy, inspiring others through our actions and reflecting Your endless grace.

Short-term Exchange Host Families Needed

CVCA will be hosting STEP (short-term exchange program) students from Brazil and Norway from September 12 to September 22 for our STEP program.

They would stay over night at the host family’s home and the host family would be responsible for breakfast and dinner and rides to and from school. This an amazing opportunity for CVCA families.
