About Kent

UCLAChi Alpha (or XA) is an interdenominational student ministry dedicated to reaching the secular university campuses. We attempt to do this through being a community of worship, prayer, fellowship, discipleship, and witness. The motto of XA is "Reconciling Students to Christ: Transforming the University, the Marketplace, and the World."  XA is sponsored through the missions arm of the Assemblies of God, but the students involved come from a myriad of backgrounds including Baptist, Catholic, Methodist, or none at all.

 

Why the University Campus?

The secular university is one of the most strategic mission fields in the world!

Think a minute...

By reaching today's college students we will reach the future leaders of the world! Tomorrow's engineers, senators, CEOs, doctors, and more are all right here. And they're here at a time in their life when they're on their own for the first time and searching for direction. What will they do? Who will they marry? What will they believe? All these questions will most likely be answered during their college years and impact the rest of their lives.

Imagine if we reach the next Bill Gates, Saddam Hussein, or even the schoolteacher who will impact thousands of students during her lifetime, what effect would that have on the world? On the Kingdom of God?

Consider...

  • By focusing on one small area, the campus, we can impact the world! Those we reach now will take what they have learned with them.

  • The world sends their best and brightest to America. Over 700,000 international students attend college here and will return home as the leaders of their nations. Even nations closed to Christian missionaries send their future leaders to us!

  • 40% of the current heads of state attended an American university.
