WELCOME! This blog chronicles the ministry events of Emily's work with the Outdoor Leadership Team (OLT) of the CCO. OLT staff invest in the lives of college students often by "suspending the normal rhythms of campus life" through adventure activities that allow students to check their bearings in life. We engage in recreation for the sake of re-creation, learning, and growth that can transform lives into those of leadership and service.

Please note: the views expressed on this blog are mine alone and do not necessarily reflect the views of the CCO or OLT.

On the Rock with Duquesne U.


On a chilly, overcast (but dry!) Saturday in early April I joined fifteen students from Duquesne University's Crossroads Fellowship for a day of rock climbing. CCO colleagues, Joy and Kelly, and I facilitated an introduction to rock climbing as part of a weekend camping retreat planned by the student leaders of the group. While teaching, I was invigorated by the students' enthusiasm and tenacity to tackle the new challenge placed before them. Here are a couple pics from the day!
