Our team is a group of 2 staff and 12 students from Campus Outreach Atlanta. CO Atlanta is an interdenominational ministry with a vision to glorify God by building laborers on the college campus for the lost world. This summer we will be spending 7 weeks on a campus in Johannesburg, South Africa partnering with the Campus Outreach team to ministry to South African students.

Ben E. I am in my 4th year at North Georgia and I'm studying Accounting.

Lewis H. I am in my junior year at University of Georgia and I'm studying Accounting. I am most excited about being stretched, and having to trust God with something that is out of my comfort zone.
