Prayer Requests

Summer Time for Students

While many students are scattered away from community and Chi Alpha during the summer as they travel and go back home, pray with us for their summer time to be utilized for the Kingdom. Pray the Holy Spirit will guide students in learning how to have a personal walk with God outside of community and that He will give students opportunity this summer to share the love of Jesus with those around them.

Missionary Transitions

Many Chi Alpha missionaries are currently entering a season of transition from staff into a period of support raising or they are getting ready to be at a new campus this fall. Moves and transitions can often be stressful for our missionaries and Satan likes to use these times to ensue doubt and loneliness. We pray for a refreshment in purpose and calling over these transitioning missionaries. We also pray against loneliness, worry, and stress for missionaries and their families in this season of change.

New Alumni Transitioning into Community

Many Chi Alpha students have or are graduating and becoming alumni. This transition is often challenging for alumni to find new community and to adjust to a different phase of life. Please pray that these new alumni smoothly transition into their next step, specifically that they will quickly find genuine community and brotherhood or sisterhood in their next phase of life.

Five Amazing Things Your $20 Can Do
By Alumna Jenny McJunkin

What can you buy with $20? You can buy lunch at Chipotle, grab a Starbucks for you and a friend or rent a new movie on Netflix. These decisions seem insignificant but how we spend small amounts of money makes a huge difference over time. Every $20 you spend counts; it builds, it moves you forward and shapes your life. That's why I'm passionate about giving.

I believe the most amazing thing you can buy with $20 is nothing! Instead of buying something for yourself— begin by giving. Buying Chipotle is pretty ordinary- but when you give—you are investing in a spiritual commodity. Here are five amazing things that giving $20 can do:

Featured Resource

Each month, we want to feature a resource that will help you live on mission in the marketplace. This month we want to feature a website called Gospel Patrons. As stated on their website, "Behind every great movement of God, generous business leaders have partnered with those who proclaim the gospel. God raises up people to proclaim the gospel, but he also raises up patrons to support them. It was there in Scripture. Jesus had Gospel patrons. Three women quietly funded his ministry and journeyed with him till the end. (Luke 8:1-3)."

Gospel Patron's mission is to inspire and empower a generation of Gospel patrons who will build the church, bless the world, and finish the Great Commission. Check out their website and resource library here to read and hear stories of history's Gospel patrons be equipped and inspired to live on mission.

"Every Alum Connects, Prays, Gives."

Alumni in the Marketplace Spotlight:
Jenny McJunkin

Jenny McJunkin (nee Egge) graduated from Colorado State University in 1997 with a bachelor's in equine science and then followed God's call to become a Chi Alpha missionary. She served on staff from 1998 to 2001 at Montana State University, then went on to be the Chi Alpha director for four years at the University of Wyoming, followed by leading the ministry at Texas Tech, where she married her husband Tory in 2006.

In 2008, Jenny stepped down from her position to become a stay-at-home mom to her children. She and Tory, a pain-management physician, served as co-chairmen of the first National Chi Alpha Advancement Advisory Group, which started both the National Chi Alpha Alumni Association and the Chi Alpha Advancement Board. Jenny currently lives in Paradise Valley, Arizona and is a full-time mom for five very active children, but she still makes time to speak at women's ministry events, fundraisers, and Chi Alpha retreats. She also took time to share with us why her heart for Chi Alpha remains so strong to this day.
