What is the mission statement of Cuyahoga Valley Church?

"Our mission is helping people grow to be passionate followers of Christ." We accomplish our mission by creating environments where people are encouraged and equipped to grow closer to God.

How does Cuyahoga Valley Church carry out this mission?

We have created three environments that will help people take steps toward a growing relationship with Jesus Christ.

The Foyer - (Guest)
It's the place in your home that serves as the welcome area for guests and new friends. It's the first step, and it's often your only chance to make your guests feel comfortable enough to return. That's exactly how we've designed our entry environments at Cuyahoga Valley Church. Our Sunday morning worship services are "foyer" environments. We want our guests to come back, so we do everything with them in mind. These environments are where most people will experience CVC for the first time, and they serve as the perfect place to introduce newcomers to the life of Cuyahoga Valley

The Living Room - (Friends)
Once your guests arrive and are welcomed into your home, you invite them into the living room. This is where you connect with people like yourself. Smaller and more interactive than the foyer environment, this is a real-life, genuine opportunity to begin friendships... just like you would in your home.

The Kitchen - (Family)
The kitchen.  The most popular hang-out in your home.   And that's the kind of environment we're striving for in our small groups: Community Groups and Fresh Start. These groups consist of six to eight individuals or five to six couples who meet regularly for Bible study and prayer and commit to accountability, friendship and support. It’s about doing life together.  And we want to help you get there.

What is the best way for me to plug into Cuyahoga Valley Church?
We encourage everyone to get involved in a community group.  And find a place to serve.

When are your services?
Saturdays at 5:30 pm.    
Sundays at 8:15 am, 9:30 am, 11:30 am

What is Sevenoseven?
Sevenoseven is a ministry of Cuyahoga Valley Church, with services geared for young adults ages 18 - 30 plus.  It meets on Sunday evenings at CVC.

Sevenoseven's vision and charge is to impact young adults - both single and married - for Christ.  It exists to build fresh faith into the lives of a generation that at times have been abandoned by their family, their friends, and even their church.

Started as a ministry of CVC in 2002, with the official launch in April of 2003, the name was derived from Matthew 7:7,  where Jesus says “Ask, and you will receive. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and the door will be opened for you.”

Andy Sikora is the lead Teaching Pastor at Sevenoseven.
