Fellowship
Chi Alpha can help you find your niche on campus by meeting other Pentecostal believers at Purdue. We do a variety of social events together like eating together on campus, hosting parties, watching movies, and going out together after our main meeting on Friday nights. We do social things together on the weekends, and we also go on retreats and mission trips where you can build lifetime friendships as you serve the Lord together.

Prayer
We believe prayer is the foundation of everything we do. As Oswald Chambers said, “Prayer does not fit us for the greater works; prayer is the greater work.” Our main prayer meeting is on Tuesday evening in the Black Cultural Center.  We have other prayer gatherings throughout the week, one of which is Fridays at noon (when faculty, staff, community members join us to pray for the university). We believe the more we pray, the more we’ll see God move!

Worship
We meet on Fridays at 7pm in Stewart Center to worship as a corporate body. As a Pentecostal fellowship, we are open to the gifts of the Spirit and believe God wants to manifest Himself among us each time we meet using gifts of prophecy, tongues/ interpretation, words of knowledge/wisdom, faith, healing, miracles, and discernment of spirits. Come prayed up—He might want to use you!

Discipleship
Chi Alpha is committed to helping you grow in your knowledge of the Word. We preach the Word at our weekly meetings, discuss the Word in small groups, and we also train student leaders in discipleship groups, so they can get grounded in God’s Word and be trained to disciple other students just like Jesus told us to. Our goal is that every student will be a life-long disciple maker.

Witness
The meaning of Chi Alpha (Christ’s Ambassadors) sums up our reason for being on campus. Our purpose is to see students saved, filled with the Spirit, and trained up to be radical missionaries across the campus, in the marketplace, and around the world. We train students in lifestyle evangelism as well as “cold-turkey” conversations about Jesus. We want every student to be able to communicate the Gospel with their friends, roommates, family members—or even strangers—as the Spirit prompts.
