“The CCO’s ministry helped me to strengthen my faith and really see that God cares about our whole life, not just what we do on Sunday morning. I don’t think I would be in the same spiritual place today if I had not been a part of CCO’s ministry at Kent.”

“I have no doubt that being involved in the ministry at Pitt set me up for a successful and positive college experience. …I believe the CCO has prepared me well for whatever comes next. I eventually plan on continuing my education to become a high school science teacher. In this field, I hope to bring the truth of Christ into the classroom through my actions and teaching.”

David Neely

“The CCO’s ministry very much changed the focus of my education. I participated in a student-led evangelistic Bible study that helped lead me to Christ. Before that, I was focused on getting a good education so I could get a good paying job and purchase all the creature comforts. After becoming a Christian, my focus changed to identifying where God wanted me to be in life and using the gifts He gave me for His honor, not mine.”

“If not for the CCO, I would not have become a Christian—at least, not at that time. Without the relationships I developed due to the CCO ministry, I would have been much more influenced by the world. I would probably be drifting aimlessly through life, taking the path of least resistance.”

“I have reams of notes from my summer at the Ocean City Beach Project, all relating to how I can best minister to and engage the world around me. There is a simple phrase that we learned at OCBP which will always stick with me: ‘to know is to have responsibility to, is to care for.’”

“My involvement in the CCO’s ministry is what kept me at Ohio Wesleyan University. By end of my freshman year, I had built relationships that I didn’t want to let go, and I found ways to focus on my faith.”

“I had just become a Christian in July,and Shirley and I were recruited almost immediately by [CCO staff member] Dave Diehl to help start a fraternity/sorority Bible study. It grew from four to fifty in one semester. …I don’t even want to think about what our lives might have been like without the CCO.”

“I accepted Christ the first or second day that I was at college, and from that point, everything changed. CCO staff members taught me how to read the Bible. They taught me how to live in a new way.”

“The CCO taught me to take my faith seriously. I was always in the church growing up, but I started to take ownership of my faith during my more independent years at college. Away from my family, my home church, and my comfort zones, I had to really question what I believed and why I believed it.”

“I recently found the journal I used to take notes in during Jubilee conferences. It is truly amazing how things I heard and wrote down then have been applied in my life over the past seven years. I was reading back through and thinking, ‘Wow, I didn’t even realize what an impact this would have on my life or how true it would be.’”
