Our Mission
Chi Alpha Christian Fellowship exalts the name of Jesus Christ on over 200
college and university campuses in the United States. Chi Alpha
encourages students to seek meaningful and fulfilling relationships with
the living God through faith in His Son, Jesus.
Chi Alpha (or XA, Greek
initials for christou apostoli: "Christ's
ambassadors") takes its name from the Apostle Paul's words in 2
Corinthians 5:20: "We are therefore Christ's
ambassadors, as though God were making His appeal through us. We implore
you on Christ's behalf: Be reconciled to God." Why do we need
reconciliation to God? According to Romans 3:23, "All
have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." Jesus declared
that humans can be made righteous in God's sight only by placing their
faith in Him: "For God so loved the world that He
gave His one and only Son that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but
have eternal life." (John 3:16). Jesus was born of a virgin and
lived a sinless life. He died on the cross as a sacrifice, taking the
punishment for our sins. Jesus triumphed over death three days later by
rising from the dead. He is alive today in Heaven, and His free offer of
eternal life still stands.
Chi Alpha offers weekly general meetings (prayer, worship, and a message
from the Word), small-group Bible study/accountability groups, and
regularly scheduled prayer meetings on the U.F. campus. We come together
and ask God to pour out His Holy Spirit on our school and for Him to help
us in our individual lives. For more information about small groups and
prayer meetings, please send an e-mail by clicking the "Information
Request" link on the homepage.
All are welcome to attend our meetings. We hope to see you there!
