CCH Missions & Trips

While the college campus is our primary mission field, we believe part of developing young people as Christ-followers involves helping them engage in giving, service, and outreach opportunities in a variety of ways.  Expanding students' experiences with the worldwide Body of Christ, their involvement through giving, and their understanding of how God is working in communities near and far is why we build "missions" into what we do at CCH.

oh, Places we Go...

Below you can browse the various missions and mission related trips currently planned for the 2022-23 school year.

The ICOM (International Conference on Missions) - November
Picture
From November 2-3, 2022, students interested in missions should join us on a road trip to Columbus, OH!  The International Conference On Missions exists to encourage, equip, and enlist workers for the harvest. This extensive international conference serves as a connection point for global missions.  You'll experience main speakers & worship, workshops with people who have worked (or currently work) in the field of Christian missions, and an exhibit hall where you can network with those in the field.   Learn more about ICOM here.

Kentucky Community Service Trip (Crossroads) - Spring Break
Picture
For Spring Break 2023, Seth will be taking a group to visit CrossRoads Missions in Princeton, KY.  We will be helping with tornado disaster relief.
Learn more about CrossRoads Missions here.
Clarence, MO (SHILOH CHRISTIAN CHILDREN'S RANCH) - February
Picture
Our most popular and longest running trip, Shiloh gives our students the opportunity to serve and see up close this ranch-style community and ministry for kids from difficult backgrounds.  Each year, we head to Missouri in February for a weekend of interacting with the house parents, their families, and kids as we chop and haul the wood they use in their furnaces to heat their homes.  This school year's dates TBA.  Learn more about Shiloh here.
Info & Sign-ups available closer to the trip
Cercady, Haiti (410 Bridge) - End of School Year
Picture
For years, we've traveled down to Cercady, Haiti, to observe, learn, encourage and participate alongside local pastors and Christians as they show us how the Gospel is working in their community.  We get a glimpse into what Christ-centered holistic community development looks like in a developing country as we go on prayer walks through the community, do VBS-style activities with school kids, join in on Bible studies with Haitian pastors, participate in worship services, serve through projects which locals identify as needs, and encourage local residents, entrepreneurs, and youth.  Each year, our group gets to meet the children we sponsor.  This year's end-of-year trip is not yet finalized.  More will be posted in future.  Learn more about 410 Bridge here.
Info on our next trip TBA
Sunshine Gospel Ministries & Bridge Builders - Thanksgiving Break
Picture
Why not kick off the first weekend of Thanksgiving Break with a quick trip up to Chicago?  We'll head up to Chicago for a service & learning weekend trip to visit Sunshine Gospel Ministries through their Bridge Builders trip.  We'll leave Friday, Nov 18 and return Monday, Nov 21.  If you're from the Chicago area, you're welcome to arrange your travel to remain up there at the end of the trip!

oh, Places we give...

Our students give to a variety of ministries and organizations each year through various campaigns as well as through the weekly Sunday morning offerings.  In fact, 30% of everything given to Sunday offerings goes toward 4 different missions.  Click on the following categories to learn more about where we give!
SUnday Offerings' contributions to missions
Thirty percent* of the student offerings given each week is devoted to missions.  Currently, this 30% is divided among the following ministries:
  • Shiloh Christian Children's Ranch, Clarence, MO 
  • Hispanic Christian Ministries, Panama
  • Cercady, Haiti with 410 Bridge 
  • CCH student-led outreach events & activities on EIU's campus 
*The remaining 70% helps cover our student events and activities such as dinners, retreats, conferences, etc.  Give to the Sunday Offering here.  Alternatively, to learn how to give toward the General Fund (ie - staff salaries, building maintenance, operations, etc.), click here.
Alternative christmas gifts campaign
For several years, our REACH Action Group leaders have organized alternative Christmas gift campaigns for students to donate toward resources for those in need in honor of their own family members or loved ones.  Over the years, our students' gifts have helped supply livestock, school materials, Bibles, blankets, and more through organizations like 410 Bridge, Haitian Christian Outreach, Samaritan's Purse, World Vision, and local Charleston/Mattoon organizations.
the 410 fast
As part of our partnership with the community of Cercady, Haiti, we commit to raise funds to help with their community development efforts.  One of our REACH Leaders developed the 410 Fast so that each spring, our students fast on April 10th to raise awareness, prayers, and funds to bless our brothers and sisters in Haiti.
