Christian Vocational Training School
Christian Vocational Training School (CVTS) is a small, private Christian school that offers training for adult men and women to realize and advance their Christian vocations. We train believers by developing them in their Christian lifestyle and/or ministry.
As followers of Christ, we should be continually developing the character of Christ in our lives. Our walk should be strengthened each day, and our callings perfected. We must take full advantage of the opportunities to be trained to further our Christian lifestyles and ministries. So many of us need guided development to become Jesus’ disciples; something he beckons us to become. Christian Vocational Training School (CVTS) offers biblically based education and training in ministry, prayer, life skills, wellness, communication, and discipleship studies for adult men and women who really desire to learn how to further develop their relationship with Christ and their service to others.
There are a number of individual course options available; however, programs of study have been grouped together to provide training in specific areas like Leadership, Life Skills, Prayer and Intercession, Christian Ministry, and Family Studies. Programs of Study consist of traditional classes, along with workshops and practical experience opportunities. These Programs are planned so that you can complete the program over two consecutive semesters beginning in the fall.
The Program of Study in Discipleship challenges students to search themselves and see who they truly are, gaining full awareness of what makes life work spiritually and emotionally. For more information about CCVTS, contact the CVTS Dean, Elder Chuck, 303-368-7120. (To CVTS)

Pastoral Counseling
Any time is a great time to back away from the busy-ness of life and focus on you and your family. The Pastoral Counseling Department at Colorado Christian Fellowship encourages members to take an inventory of their emotional and spiritual wellbeing by utilizing the services offered – Theopostic Prayer Ministry, individual and family counseling, connecting groups, and special course offerings like Rewriting the Heart, or the Exchange Life.
A word of wisdom at the right time can make all the difference to our situation. Biblical counseling is connecting people to God in their place of need. Because Colorado Christian Fellowship is a healing and life skills church, support is available to individuals of all ages. If you are interested in taking an inventory of your emotional and spiritual wellbeing, consider e-mailing Pastor Kay Michaelis at kmichaelis@ccfword.org or calling Beverly Akridge, 303.368.7105, Ext. 212 to schedule an appointment.
