Sierra Vista is pleased to have a growing Young Adult ministry.  This group includes young adults in the 18 to 30  year old range (single and married) who are students at ASU, students in other universities, gainfully employed, in specialized training programs, and in the military.

COLLEGE CRAZIES
Sierra Vista's College Crazies program stays in contact with those who have graduated from high school within the past five years who are offspring of Sierra Vista members, who have participated with Sierra Vista's youth group, or who are members of the Crossroads Class.  This includes singles and marrieds who are in school or specialized training programs, gainfully employed, or in the military.  It also includes those who graduated more than five years ago who are still in school or who have not found a church home where they are living and want to continue to be part of the College Crazies Crew.    This program includes six mailings during the school year, regular email to the members, a Secret Prayer Partner for two months, and a special website where current news and celebrations are posted

THURSDAY EVENING BIBLE STUDY
A young adult Bible Study group has formed and meets on Thursday evenings at 6:30 p.m. in LC 202.  The group is led by Tina Glass.

MILITARY MINISTRY (not currently active)
Sierra Vista supports Sierra Vista-affiliated Military through prayers, cards and packages.  A complete list of our "Sierra Vista affiliated" Military can be found at the table in the Narthex.  Suggestions for mailings, flat-rate boxes, and customs forms are also available on the Military table.
