Thank You to our Youth Group adult volunteers
Thank you to all our adult volunteers who consistently support the Tri-Valley Youth Ministry and invest themselves in the lives of our students. Last night we honored over 20 of these adults who volunteer with things like:
- leading small group discussions on Thursdays and Sundays
- traveling with teens to/from events
- building relationships with students
- serving on the Parent Action Committee
- much, much more
Thank you for caring for our teens. What you do is a tremendous blessing to the youth ministry and extremely valuable for students’ spiritual development. Anyone who would like to discover ways they can become involved in the youth ministry, please get in touch with Jacob or Lisa. We can never have too many mature, Christian adults on hand to positively influence our youth!
A primary focus of TVCC ministry in 2012 will center around helping a new church get planted in the Bay Area. That’s a big, faith-driven goal. To help us all learn what that means, the elders have requested a single, 9:30 am adult class during the month of March to explore church planting.
Brianna Hill is collecting gently used jeans for homeless teens until Feb 16. Jeans in wearable condition of any size or style without holes or tears in them may be donated. There is a marked collection box in the foyer – thanks for your help!
The College Church of Christ in Fresno will be hosting the Renew conference February 10-12. Main speakers include Mike Cope, Mark Lau Branson, Tony Ash and Aaron Metcalf.

On Saturday, February 4th at 9:00 am, all deacons and ministry leaders are asked to meet with the elders and staff at the church building. The elders will present a ministry vision for 2012, and will work with our servant leaders to make plans for the coming year. This is a critical time of planning, so don’t miss it. Ministry leaders should have received an email invitation already, but call Steve Martin if you have questions. Everyone, please pray that God will actively bless our elders, deacons, and ministry leaders with wisdom, clarity and stamina for the days ahead.
