Chris and Cary Drinkard joined the Campus Outreach Augusta staff team in 1998, serving for sixteen years on campuses throughout Georgia, reaching, discipling, and equipping young leaders. In July 2014, the Drinkards moved to Manila, Philippines, where they helped launch a new Campus Outreach ministry at two universities in partnership with a local Filipino church. In June of 2024, the Drinkards transitioned back to the US to focus on enhancing the mission-critical partnerships between US and International CO teams and their partnering churches. Their vision is to see more laborers trained and more leaders raised up, in more cities globally as CO teams and churches effectively collaborate across the movement. Chris and Cary have three children: Susanna, Daniel, and Mary Beth.
