Faithful, Joyful and Motivated: Ugandan Students Welcome CCO Crew with Open Arms
By Jeff Graham “Thank you Lord for life!" This is a common opening for prayers from Catholic Ugandan students, according to CCO staffer Ben Turland.

Braving arduous multi-day journeys by train, members of Jesus Youth from across India welcomed members of Catholic Christian Outreach to India as part of an informal gathering to discuss faith and outreach.

An Abundance of Love: Amy Boskill
I had just gotten back from doing NET in Ireland and was leaving in a week to go to Holland for a mission trip when I decided to head to a night of Eucharistic Adoration at one of the local parishes. While there I ran into a good friend of mine who worked for CCO. The night was just about to start but before we headed into the church he said that he wanted to talk to me about my plans for the fall.
