WELCOME College Heights would like to let you in on a little secret. Our passion is to make disciples of Jesus. As you flip through the pages of our Ministry Catalog, don’t get lost in the ink. The events, the ministries, and programs of this booklet are genuine life needs and we invite you to join in. However, just sharing good information isn’t the end goal. We desire more, like deep friendships with authentic followers of Jesus. Over time, College Heights feels less like a place, and much more like family. Prayer is no longer just a 911 call, but a warm daily, even hourly, conversation. We hope you find yourself thinking about Bible passages, and living true in your workplace, family, and social circles. Then quite to your own surprise, the new you can’t help but talk about Jesus as you would talk about a close friend, and now others, seeing your transformation, can’t help but listen. Life is still tiring, but Jesus has become real hope, strength, and your only source of salvation. That’s it. Now you know our secret. Our passion is to make disciples of Jesus. You could just enjoy the catalog . . . or you could take the risk and join us on the journey.

COMMUNITY OUTREACH
Neighborhood Life House Josiah was the youngest sibling at age six in a large, blended family. His siblings had come to Neighborhood Life House for months, but he always hung back, adamantly opposed to anywhere that taught about God. For five months, our volunteers greeted him with smiles and warm hellos. They asked him about school, his favorite things, and his dreams for life. One day, as the children gathered for Kids Club, Josiah and his siblings came running with smiles on their faces. He passed through our doors that day without a hint to the sudden change and continued to come every day he could. Their family told us three months later they were moving. On their last day at Neighborhood Life House the activity was to draw a life-size self-portrait with pictures and words that described them. In the middle of Josiah’s portrait were the words “I am loved by God.” Neighborhood Life House is one of our Community Outreach partners that is a Christ-centered nonprofit committed to building a stronger community in North Joplin by helping people to see who they can become with the help of God. For more information, contact Katie Hargrove at katie@joplinlifehouse.com or 417.413.1880.

They work with people who are ready to come to God and walk hand-in-hand with God’s people to a better life in Christ. For more information, contact Justin Miller at justin@godsresort.org or 417.553.4080. Ways to serve: • Resort Builders—Help maintain dignified housing for people God loves.

FAMILIES A healthy family nurtures their marriage, seeks deep relationships and friendships, leans hard and fast on a loving God, and leads their children to the Lordship of Jesus Christ. We seek to be a ministry that helps families pursue and lay these foundational building blocks. Our main strategy to accomplish this is by tried and true, seasoned-in-life families walking beside others that are not as far along on the journey.
MOPS
1st and 3rd Wednesdays, 9:15-11:30 AM
Atrium
MOM...such a small word that brings so much responsibility and courage. It takes courage to ask brave questions and even more courage to search for the answers. We are excited to journey alongside you this year as we ask one another what it means to “Be you, Bravely.” MOPS (mothers of preschoolers) is for any mom with kids birth to kindergarten. Check us out, the first meeting is free (and usually addictive)!
Marriage Mentors The Family Ministry department is recruiting and training more marriage mentors! This is not a program, it’s a working relationship. It’s the process of having a seasoned and experienced couple (nobody said anything about being “perfect”) come alongside a less experienced couple to help show them the way. If this is something that sparks your interest, please contact us. For more information, contact Titus Neuenschwander, Family Minister, at 624.6915 x180 or titus@chjoplin.org or SuSan Murdock at x181 or smurdock@chjoplin.org.

We play thrilling games, worship with an amazing band, and learn about our AWESOME God by studying the Bible in group settings.

STUDENTS
Middle School
Sunday, 9:15 AM Wednesday, 7:00 PM
K124 Atrium
We believe that kids in grades 6–8 are ready to deeply engage their faith and beliefs. We use specifically designed programming, teaching, games, and mentorship to help direct middle schoolers’ rapidly developing minds toward Jesus. Our goal is for middle schoolers to have a transformational understanding of and belief in the gospel. We want to engage their hearts with the truth of Jesus, and proactively help them answer the “Why?” of their beliefs.

Wells for India
High School
Sunday, 9:30 AM Wednesday, 7:00 PM
Gym Chapel
We want students to be able to answer three questions: • • •
Who am I? Finding truth in confusing times. Where do I belong? We were designed for a relationship with God and with each other. What am I supposed to do? I live to bring God joy and to serve as His heart, hands, and feet.
QUAKE is a fun environment where students hang out and spend time playing, worshipping, and listening to truth from God’s Word. Not every week looks exactly the same, but they are always full of music, fun, and people who care. Kids are challenged to make a difference in the world and use God’s Word as a springboard to empower them.
We often have kids ask us, “What can I DO to make a difference?” That’s why we are challenging our kids in LaunchPad, Odyssey, and Quake to raise $15,000 to help build a well in India for clean drinking water in a place that needs it most. We are partnering with our Global Outreach team and Central India Christian Mission to make sure the well goes to a place where the church is invested and seeking to spread the truth of the gospel. We want to give a village not only clean water, but also THE Living Water, Jesus Christ! Here are ways our kids have already responded: • They are sacrificially giving their own money towards this project. • One young man is going to “give up” his birthday. Instead of gifts for him, he is asking friends and family to donate money to the “Wells for India” project. • Some students want to put on a Fun Run and 5k to help raise money. • A group of boys are trying to organize a volleyball tournament to raise money. • A group of girls are designing t-shirts to sell. Will you please PRAY? Pray God would continue to work in the lives of our kids. Pray they would know Jesus more and continue to seek out ways to build His Kingdom on this earth. Will you GIVE to help the kids raise money for this to bless a village in India with clean drinking water? Go to chjoplin.org and click on “Give,” and choose “Wells for India” from the drop-down menu. You can also donate money at the Youth Office.

COLLEGE HEIGHTS CHRISTIAN SCHOOL College Heights Christian School was founded in 1978 by the elders and ministers at College Heights and has grown to approximately 600 students from preschool to 12th grade. The school follows a college preparatory curriculum laying the foundation for graduates to become successful business and community leaders. Students are simultaneously surrounded by the Word of God in a Christian environment while preparing for success in the world. Many students come to know the Lord more deeply because they are in this environment, and then go out as salt and light in their own communities and beyond. In essence, the school has become not only a ministry to children, but also a launch site for service ministry. Students represent over 90 different area churches, with the largest number coming from College Heights Christian Church. College Heights Christian School is accredited by the North Central Association and is a member of the Association of Christian Schools International. For more information, call the school at 417.782.4114 x201 or visit collegeheights.org.
HOMESCHOOLER’S NETWORK The HomeSchooler’s Network is a co-op meeting weekly in Joplin to assist parents in educating, nurturing, and leading their children in the Lord. We encourage and support parents, provide group educational opportunities and activities for interacting and fellowship, and resource homeschooling families and potential homeschooling families. The Homeschooler’s Network currently meets at Wildwood Baptist Church. The spring semester runs from February 3–April 28. Classes meet from 8:45 AM–3:00 PM on Tuesdays for Kindergarten through the 12th grade. A nursery is provided. For more information, visit thehomeschoolersnetwork.com.

SAFETY PLAN Your safety and the safety of your family is an important part of family life at College Heights. We have developed an “Emergency Response Plan” for the following emergency situations: fire, severe weather, armed intruder, medical emergency, bomb threat, and utility failure. Please note that in the case of severe weather your children will be the first to move to shelter and will move to the safest areas in the building. Those in the Worship Center will be given specific directions regarding movement to their shelter areas. Each ministry area has a plan in place that is designed to meet the safety needs of that particular ministry. For additional information contact any ministry leader or Steve Dennis at 624.6915 x120.
