ENGAGE

COLLEGE MINISTRY

Our call is transforming college students to transform the world. We do this through our vibrant partnership with the Coalition for Christian Outreach (CCO). Our relationships and gatherings are focused around connecting with God and helping each other follow Jesus faithfully during college and beyond. As a result, we send students into the world who are deeply connected to their local church and are thriving participants in the mission of God within their communities, families, and workplaces.

YOU’RE INVITED!

Check out our event calendar below and join us for fun and fellowship each month! New events and service opportunities happen spontaneously, so stay in the know with our COLLEGE E-NEWS:

LET’S CONNECT

Jonathan Wagner

When I was in college, one of my good friends would say, “*don’t let class get in the way of your education!*” He wasn’t (often) trying to get me to skip class. He was pointing out that my experiences outside of the classroom were similarly important. When I was in school I studied International Business and Religion.
But, God used the experiences beyond my credit hours to teach me how to ask hard questions, form deep friendships, and discover who God made me to be. Regardless of where you are in your journey, we would love to walk with you during this season!

Emily Gaskins

Hey hey! College is often referred to as "*THE BEST YEARS OF YOUR LIFE*" and whether or not people have similar experiences, I could not agree more with that statement. College is a beautiful example of what it looks like to love people who are different from you. There are different majors, clubs, sports, organizations, and more to get involved in, and there is no greater platform than college to seek out people who beat a different drum than you.
The Lord used my college experience to teach me the importance of seeking friendships beyond the inner circle, and would love to talk with you about your experience and the season you are currently sitting in!

CCO Church Partnership

Partnership between a church and the CCO means that together we develop a shared vision for reaching students, design a ministry strategy, and choose a CCO staff person who will act as the congregation's full-time representative to campus. Instead of taking a four-or-more-year hiatus from the church, students in these ministries find themselves integrally involved in the life of a local congregation.
