Andrew says, "I've finally found my true calling in helping the young adults of Faith Christian Church and the students of Kent State Tuscarawas in their faith walk.  I found my first faith family in college ministry.  I went into the world with a view that was shaped by the loving God I came to know through CCO's ministry at Kent Tusc.  I know how God can work on campus because I am one of his stories.
