A Baptist church on Capitol Hill has become the command headquarters for friends and co-workers of a Christian outreach worker missing since Tuesday. Matt Hill disappeared without a trace, leaving few clues behind. He was last seen at 9th and H Streets in Northwest near Chinatown 10:30 a.m.

Tuesday. His colleagues at Campus Outreach DC say Hill dropped off a young George Washington University student he had been mentoring and that is the last anybody has seen the 26-year-old Elon University graduate.

Hill was supposed to go to his job at Capitol Hill Baptist Church after dropping off the college student, but he never showed up. His roommate says it appears Hill stopped by their apartment on 26th Street in Foggy Bottom.

Bank records reportedly show somebody used Hill’s credit card to buy $33.01 in gas at an Exxon station in Arlington just before noon.

Hill’s car is also missing. It is a black 1996 Honda civic with DC tags DT2747.

(Editor’s Note: Campus Outreach is a para-church ministry that was founded by Briarwood Presbyterian (PCA) in Birmingham and is now operated under the sponsorship of many PCA and EPC churches. The DC work is sponsored by a Founders Conference SBC church.

Historically, Campus Outreach has staffed smaller campuses that are strategic for ministry. A typical large university has anywhere from 25 to 40 religious organizations on campus, and smaller schools often have not been targeted by these ministries. The schools CO targets have significantly fewer religious organizations, so focusing on these campuses has proven to be an effective way to reach students with the Gospel. Go to website. )
