What's Chi Alpha?
Chi Alpha is a multi-national movement of college students earnestly following Jesus. We are on over 250 campuses here in the U.S. and have a close association with hundreds of other groups around the world. Our worldwide mission statement is "Reconciling students to Christ; Transforming the university, the marketplace and the world."

Why the Name Chi Alpha?
The Greek letters Chi (X) and Alpha (A) are the initials of a phrase written by the Apostle Paul in the Bible. "Chi" stands for Christ and "Alpha" for ambassadors. As ambassadors, we are "Christ's sent ones". The name is a reminder that we should live to reflect and reconcile others to Jesus.
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. II Cor. 5:20

What's Chi Alpha Like?
We meet on campus in all sorts of settings and sizes. These gatherings are informal, charged with music, given to humor and deal with everything from relationships to the nature of truth. The goals of these gatherings are to meet with God, meet among friends and meet real needs.

What's the Bottom Line?
Chi Alpha is a ministry of worship, prayer, discipleship, fellowship, witness, and service on campus. We are focused on transforming our world, locally and around the world. We depend on the Holy Spirit. We work hard to learn from and join with international students. We strive to be muticultural. We see that faith and thinking are related.
