The church should be the most irresistible place in the community. Through God's provision, we have been able to create relevant, irresistible environments at Cuyahoga Valley Church. Our goal is to create experiences where the Holy Spirit is free to work in the hearts and lives of adults and children, and to which they, in turn, will be compelled to invite their friends and family members.

In addition to the weekend services, CVC started other ministries designed to capture the attention of their three target audiences.

CVC realized that the church has the children for approximately 40 hours per year, while parents have their children much, much more.  We decided it was important (and smart) to partner with the parents and equip them to invest in their child’s spiritual growth  Blast! targets families with elementary school-aged children. It’s a 45 minute program where children participate with their parents in a highly interactive, values-driven learning environment. "Blast! is where kids bring their parents to church."

Impact is an environment designed for middle school and high school students. Held on Sundays (Middle School:  Mornings;  High School: Mornings and Evenings), kids are allowed to be themselves, encouraged to ask questions, and given practical ways to follow Christ with their whole lives.

Reaching a generation that had given up on church is the endeavor of Sevenoseven ministries.  With high energy, lights, cameras, music, video, plus dynamic, right where you’re at messages, this ministry targeting 18-30+) has taken off.

Beyond the Numbers

Currently, Cuyahoga Valley Church has over 1,300 adults participating in four weekend worship services.  As you might imagine, however, the numbers don't tell the whole story. Changed lives are what drive the leadership CVC.  We desire to help people grow to be passionate followers of Christ.  That's not just a slogan on our wall  Everything we do is measured against that.
