CIY MOVE
CIY (CHRIST IN YOUTH) MOVE IS A 5-DAY EXPERIENCE GEARED SPECIFICALLY FOR STUDENTS, WITH LOTS OF WORSHIP, NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED SPEAKERS, AND SMALL GROUP TIME.
TCC Students exists to make disciples who make disciples, and we believe God is using high school students to change the world through discipleship. We love that we get to partner with CIY in preaching the Gospel to students. And while the Gospel is always enough, we must also work to maximize our efforts by communicating effectively in ways that our students will most readily understand.
And no one does that better for high school students than the CIY MOVE team. This year, we’ll be heading to Johnson University in Knoxville, Tennessee, on June 9-June 14, 2025.
Our screened, approved, and excited small group leaders will be leading throughout the weekend, so we have the adults handled. If you have any further questions or concerns check out: ciy.com.
FAQ
LEADERS
Our leaders attending MOVE with us are the same volunteers who lead and serve at Wednesday Night Live every week. They are all background checked and go through training within TCC Students in order to be qualified to lead students well.
We promote safety by carefully background checking every leader who serves in our ministry. We also have very specific guardrails in place that leaders are aware of and are expected to follow such as never being alone with a student. Additionally, CIY hires local police officers to provide additional security at the camp.
TRANSPORTATION
In order to keep costs down, we look for volunteers to lend us a vehicle or multiple vehicles that can accommodate our group.
SCHEDULE
The day-to-day schedule includes 3 meals, 2 large group sessions including worship, teaching, and there are 2 small group sessions. Every student is placed in a small group with other students of the same age range and gender, and the groups are led by one or more of our trusted Small Group Leaders. This is their group for the entire week. The schedule also consists of structured activities for students to participate in with their small group, along with some free time where students can use the camp facilities and build relationships with their small group. On Thursday, we have extended rec. We will eat lunch and participate in an activity off campus!
Lastly
We sleep in the dorms on campus. Sleeping arrangements consist of students having 1-2 roommates who are students from their small group. Leaders are always 1-2 rooms away, but they never share rooms with students.
