Visiting the CCBC Extension Campus in the North Fork Valley

Lori and I had the opportunity to visit the Calvary Chapel Bible Collge extension campus in the North Fork Valley yesterday.  It was really cool to finally see the campus and talk with some of the staff.

CCBC Colorado is the only full program campus in Colorado to offer a full 20 credit semester including room and board.  It also happens to be located in one of the most breathtaking valleys I have ever seen.  The property is also home to camp Id-ra-ha-je West, a summer camp for surrounding Churches.  The property recently came under new management last year by Jeff Christianson.  He is running the camp, Bible college, and has also become the pastor of a small fellowship in the nearby town of Paonia.  With three kids and one on the way, Jeff & Jennie definitely have their hands full…

Because of the vicinity and the unique programs offered by this particular campus, there are some great opportunities here to get involved as a Bible College student…

For Example:

• Volunteer at the camp for the summer for M199 credits
• Attend a 1 week block class in the Spring or Fall.  Each semester they fly out pastors/teachers from different parts of the country to teach an intensive 1 week class for full credit.  Some of these classes are even held in the wilderness on full week backpacking trips!
• Attend for a full 20 credit semester as a transfer student.

Please contact our front office for more information on any of these special guest student programs.

Here are a few pictures…
