We are thankful for the influence that Jim, Marianna, and other student leaders had on our lives as they led the ministry. CCF also provided a safe place to grow and learn spiritually through weekly meetings, small groups, and fellowship with other believers. CCF provided us with a circle of Christian friends that encouraged us in our walks with Christ. College is a time when your faith is challenged and stretched as you make decisions about your future, who you will surround yourself with, and how you will choose to live. “We chose to start supporting CCF because we felt like it was important to give back to a ministry God had used in our lives during our college years. “The question might be rightly asked, "Why do you support CCF?" The answer to this question is quite simple: I desire others to experience the same transformation that I did in one of the most pivotal times in their lives and if CCF helped guide me to become a more devout follower of Jesus, I know that it will help countless others. In other words, CCF helped me to become the man of faith that I am today. CCF helped propel me into l leadership as well giving me the first taste for pastoral ministry that I now find myself fully rooted in. CCF helped me to realize that being a Christian meant living and walking in the life of Christ, and not simply going through the Christian motions. That remained the case until I encountered Jesus in a wholly new way through the campus ministry of CCF. Before college I lived out a Christian faith that wasn't truly my own, but rather the faith of my family and my home church.
For it was in college that I learned to be an adult, and more importantly I learned to truly walk the walk of a disciple of Jesus.
Out of all the times of my life so far, college was the most challenging, rewarding, and transformative.
