"College Heights is more than a church to us. It is our family, our community, our home. Our church family has walked beside us during this particularly hard season; they have showered us with prayer, love, cards, phone calls. Everything a happy family does to support their loved ones. Community starts at the open doors of College Heights, where no one walks alone."

“When I moved to Joplin for college, I was a terrified freshman who was desperate for community. College Heights graciously ushered me into the most amazing community that is the College Age ministry.
