"I got involved with Chi Alpha through a friend who gently and continously encouraged me to come to their meetings and through him I made priceless friendships with others who knew the Lord and helped me to know the Lord a little more each day through their kindness and love. I really met the Lord through them and then again at an event called Breakaway. "

"Sitting in my apartment on campus one Thursday night. Fed up with and feeling that life just wasn't worth living anymore. I opened my desk drawer and seen a flyer that I had received from Chi Alpha at a school event earlier in the year. I called the phone # that was on it, spoke to Chris (our awesome and fearless leader...lol) and just asked if I could come to service that night. That flyer was a lifeline that God used to save me! Thank you Chi Alpha NSU for caring enough to witness to me, and everyone involved in this amazing campus ministry. I am excited about having Christ in my life again and about having some really awesome christian friends!!! And above all.... thank you Jesus!!!!!"

"I truly met the lord for the first time just a couple months ago at the Chi Alpha retreat, Altitude. Up until that retreat I would've classified myself as an agnostic/atheist. Ever since I accepted Jesus back into my life, I've experienced such JOY! I'm no longer in the pit of depression and loneliness I was in before. I've truly been saved! I've finally realized that God just wants to have a relationship with me. That its not about religion, its about relationship. I will never be alone again, for the Lord is always with me! and the joy of the Lord is my strength!"

"I did Fine Arts 6th-12th grade and would always see the XA booth at nationals... never thought much about it until I heard about it being on campus here. I met the campus pastor the week I started freshman year and I've been an enthusiastic XAian ever since! :)"

"I have been part of Chi Alpha since the Fall of 2008 immediately following the Hurricane when I asked for Christ. I was driving home to Houston when I suddenly realized that I deserved to die for the things I had done. As I was driving over 80 mph in my car coming off of drugs and alcohol, I was very close to giving in to the devil's wishes and driving into a ravine to kill myself. As a cried, I knew the words to say and uttered "Christ Save Me" and he delivered me from the situation and after a year I gave it all up to him and I am no longer of this world! Dead to sin, Alive in Christ. Luke 15:24 'For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found.'"

"I came to college as an unbeliever who was ready to take on campus life by having fun and meeting new people. It was not long before I was approached by a Chi Alpha member who invited me to a bible study where I took a chance and went in order to meet someone new. Well I did eventually meet someone new and person that was Jesus Christ when I went to Fall Breakaway a couple weeks later. That weekend I surrendered my life to God and have not looked back since. The love shown by the members of Chi Alpha inspired my heart to even go to the Fall retreat and from that point on God led me to live a full life under Him."
