CCO Campus Ministry

Tyler Flynn, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of History, Eastern University
CCO staff, 1995-98 (Penn State McKeesport)

My three years of service with the CCO at Penn State McKeesport branch campus taught me two important lessons:  that Christian faith is something we contemplate and that Christian faith is something we do.  While on staff I began to understand the link between theological writings and hands-on work in a community and I saw that Christians could make original and creative contributions to society on behalf of the Kingdom.  Well-equipped with this foundation I went to graduate school for my Ph.D. in American history and am now a professor at Eastern University (a CCO school) in Philadelphia. It’s been a great journey!
