CCO Campus Ministry

Eve Bell

“I really think the CCO saved me from a life of hurt from poor decision-making. It taught me that it’s okay to care about the world; in fact, it’s our role to reach out to others. Jubilee taught me that I could love science and still love God.”

Jeff Winkler

“At Jubilee, I saw that God is truly in all things and I can be faithful in the work I’ve been called to. Beforehand, I had struggled to make a connection between faithfulness and the work of an actuary.”

“The CCO was my safe haven, a place to meet with like-minded people. I don’t think that I would have turned away from my faith during the college years if not for the CCO, but I also don’t think I would have grown at all during those years without them.”

“My CCO experience helped solidify who I am as a person and who I am in Christ. I cannot imagine how my life would have turned out without their influence. It gave me direction and a sense of purpose. My faith affects every aspect of my life.”

“If I had not been involved with the CCO in college, it is possible I could have strayed away from my faith. I was a fairly new Christian, having come to Christ in high school, and I had not attended church more than a handful of times. Thankfully, with the CCO’s ministry I had a community of Christians around me and I started attending church.”

“Because of the CCO’s ministry, I feel like I was given a good strong biblical background. I know why I believe what I believe; I can defend it if I have to. And I learned that you can have a sense of humor and follow Jesus.”

“The CCO was a great motivator for me to think of Christianity as something more than just a thing to participate in on Sunday. It gave me some intellectual frameworks to look at the world in a larger way and see how we can be ‘in but not of’ the world.”

“The CCO staff people at Penn State stressed the truth that God could be glorified in pretty much any chosen career field. God taught me, through the CCO’s ministry, that He could be glorified by my teaching any demographic. I’ve had experience teaching in urban, suburban and international schools and have seen God’s blessings in each location.”

“The main thing I took from interacting with CCO campus ministers was the importance that everything is God’s, and can be done for God. We are all called to different areas of life, to different occupations, geographic locations, and demographics, but we all serve the same Lord, and we can—and should—all demonstrate redemption in all we do.”

“Because I was involved in the CCO’s ministry during college, I learned that any talent that I have can be used for God’s purposes, even if it seems insignificant or not useful. I have grown as a leader and am able to more purposefully understand and study the Bible.”
