CRU Club Carnival Feeds PVCC
Buttery popcorn, Chick-fil-A, and refreshing sodas were enjoyed at Cru Club’s Carnival. The event was held on the student terrace behind the Bolick Student Center on Sept. 18 from 1-4 p.m. The Cru Club, PVCC’s Cru Christian Fellowship hosted a wonderful event of games and food for the PVCC community. Groups of students lined up to grab their fresh popcorn and played cornhole.
The Cru Club is passionate about sharing the joy of Jesus Christ and hopes to connect more people to him. According to the UVA Cru Club’s website, their mission is to educate curious minds about who Jesus Christ is. Jeff Simpson, a team leader for the Cru Club, said he hopes that students find community and the opportunity to connect with each other during difficult times during the school year. Cru is a non-profit organization that depends on funding from the community. The donations will go to student scholarships, outreaches, and supplies for ministry events. You can find their donation page at https://cruatuva.com/give/.
In the future, Cru Club will be hosting a variety of events. Cru Club will be at the UVA Chapel from 8-9 p.m. and will host men’s and women’s bible studies several days during the week. The Cru Club meets every week on Wednesday in Room M835 at 12 p.m. Members of the Cru Club can expect uplifting prayer, a stronger connection with God, and music.
