# **VCA Commissioning - 10/18**

Hi @first-name,

This upcoming Sunday (10/18), we will have our Valor Christian Academy (VCA) commissioning! I want to encourage you to send a message to your group to make it a point to try to find your respective VCA staff(s) this Sunday and say hi to them, and encourage them! Whether that encouragement is by way of prayer, a care package, a written prayer, etc. **Remember if you're not sure too sure who you VCA staff(s) is, you can find them under "Resources" in PCO groups!**

Finally, the week of 10/25 will be an OFF week in preparation for the Fall Retreat! Please remind your group we will NOT be meeting! We will resume the week of 11/1!

With much love,

Pastor Mat
