About Us

We are movement of Christ Followers at St. Cloud State

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.

We experience the supernatural. We work hard to learn from and join with international students. We see that faith and thinking are related.

Our name comes from the Bible in 2 Corinthians 5:16-20 which says,

So from now on we regard no one from a worldly point of view. Though we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: That God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting men's sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. 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.

What does Chi Alpha believe? We have 3 primary beliefs central to our thinking:
The Bible is God's word.
God is active among us by supernatural gifts.
God wants people to be reconciled to Him.

So this means we are God's ambassadors-"Christ's sent ones", or using Greek letters Chi (x) and Alpha (a)

We represent Christ to the campus declaring the message, come meet with God "come befriend God." This is our mission. We are here to help, encourage and equip Christ followers to engage the campus with the message of coming "face to face" with God
