Alpha Training Events

From time to time we run an Alpha on Campus Seminar at the Alpha Training Events.  Currently we are in the process of determining which Alpha Training Events present the greatest opportunities for the seminar.  Please watch this space for announcements about where the next Alpha on Campus Seminar will be held.  If you would like more information about running Alpha in the college and university setting, contact the Alpha on Campus office (512) 477-1068 or write to us at alphaoncampus@alphausa.org. We would love to hear from you.

Featured Course

The featured course this month is being run at Kansas State University by Ichthus Campus Fellowship.  This is the eighth course run at KSU and last semester 75 students were on the course.  God has blessed the Alpha Course with a leadership team headed by Ichthus staff worker Sarah Schultz.

The course has been supported in the most wonderful way by Christ Church, an Episcopal congregation in Kansas City.  The congregation has sponsored a regional Alpha Conference, runs an extremely fruitful Alpha Course and has provided prayer and financial support for the Ichthus team. 

Recently Sarah wrote the following about the Alpha Course and Ichthus ministry at KSU. "Alpha is changing the current mind set of our Christian students and has changed my life as well. We used to be more 'program' oriented. Students spent hours making funny videos for our seeker meetings and could have gone months without being in relationship with an unbeliever. Alpha has taken me and the rest of our believing students from a mentality of 'we have the answers and need to make people believe' to 'we are learning as well and we would love to invite people along into that process.'

The focus is no longer on ourselves. We are truly mere facilitators of what God may want to do. The good news is that He wants to reach college students. He wants us to rely on Him and trust that there is power in the gospel and that He will change lives."

We are grateful for what God is doing through the Alpha Course as it is offered through Ichthus Christian Fellowship at Kansas State University.
