Campton Heights Baptist Church - Fortuna, CA

The Friendly Church in the Friendly City

Our Local "Homegrown" Missionary


Campton Heights Baptist supports many missionaries all over the world.  We are particularly proud of one of our own.  Sarah Short is with the Navigators as full time staff. She recently was "promoted" from the Edge Corps program.  She is working in Tempe AZ with college students from Arizona State University.  Campton Heights is Sarah's home church.  We are enormously proud (without being prideful) to be able to send her out to where "the fields are ripe unto harvest."

The summer of 2007 Sarah went to Djibouti Africa to teach English to college students there.  She went with a team of six Edgers from different universities in the US.  They had an incredible time.  The heat and the culture differences were challenging, but God was faithful and they made friends and influenced lives.


Sarah has been called to serve the Lord on the ASU campus.
