The CCO has partnerships with two local churches that actively encourage students to connect to a local congregation and to live out their faith in all areas of their lives.
Elliott Simko and his wife, Rachel Stephan-Simko, are both Eastern University alumni. Elliott works with the United Presbyterian Church of Manoa to reach area college students and connect them to congregation members, and Rachel also reaches out to Eastern University students as an associate staff member.
Michael Whitnah reaches out to students at Eastern University in partnership with The Church of the Good Samaritan.
Together, Elliott, Rachel and Michael spend time with students, meeting them on campus for coffee, food, and to talk about life, attend Wednesday morning chapel services, or getting off campus for a little while. They mentor students and encourage them to attend the CCO’s annual Jubilee conference.
to develop men and women who live out their Christian faith in every area of life.
