iTeams - Make an IMPACT!

Chi Alpha exists at Stephen F. Austin to be an agent of change – to IMPACT the students on our campus with the truth of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and to be a constant example of the love of God for humanity.  In every way, iTeams are vehicles for this change – whether it’s by rolling up a sound cord, shopping for the BBQ this weekend, or stopping by a new girl’s dorm room with cookies, iTeam members are IMPACTING the lives of students!

The following iTeams are available for the 2011-2012 school year.  If you have an idea for an iTeam not listed below, please talk with Derrick or Ashley!

Audio / Visual Team
If you are technically minded, this iTeam is for you!  Every week it takes a crew of trained workers to set up & tear down the sound & A/V equipment for XA events.  We need students who are familiar with sound equipment (or are willing to learn)… who are strong, physically in shape, familiar with computers & presentation software (ProPresenter for Mac), and who work well under pressure and with others.

XA International
Every year our campus is host to students from all around the world who come here to study.  We want to welcome our international students to this campus, town, and country, and help them adjust to life in their new home.  We do this by offering friendship and cultural exchanges.  We need students to work with Ms. Pattie Willmon and the existing team to facilitate our growing Friday night dinners with international students – if you are interested in other cultures, enjoy cooking, organizing, and having good conversations, this iTeam is for you!

Party Planners
Whoever said Christians can’t have fun was crazy!  We believe Christians have more fun on accident than most people do on purpose.  It’s important to us to spend time together in a setting that is encouraging to all present.  We try to offer at least one fun event each month for students and the Party Planners iTeam is responsible for coming up with ideas, organizing events, and making plans.  They are the hands and feet behind all of our parties.  The best part?  We give you the money, you spend it!

(NEW!)  Connection Team
Chi Alpha exists to love students!  One way we apply this principle of love is by creating a welcoming environment at weekly XA Service meetings.  We want visitors to know how excited we are to have them with us and to feel comfortable in the meeting as well.  Our Connection Team are friendly faces, greeting and welcoming new students at XA Service and reconnecting with visitors who fill out contact cards, providing information, friendship, and a link to small groups (and maybe a bag of XA cookies, too).

Worship Team
God created mankind to enjoy His presence.  This is how we define worship and in Chi Alpha we take that seriously, believing that even now His people are called worship God in spirit and truth.  We want to create an atmosphere in which people feel comfortable and compelled to worship God in sincerity and with abandon.  We are continually working to teach students what it means to worship God.  The worship team strives to combine musical talents, forming a solid band that is able, both in heart and skill, to lead the larger Chi Alpha group into musical worship at weekly XA Service meetings as well as a lifestyle of worship throughout the week.
