A community-centered campus ministry at Heartland Community College.

Go through life with Jesus-loving students on your campus.

First off, welcome to college... it's awesome! During this new season for you it is critical to have positively-defining friendships. These next years of your college experience will be a time to discover who you want to be and what you want to do. What better way to discover Jesus and develop life-long friendships than immerse yourself in a christian campus ministry. At Heartland Community College, Chi Alpha Normal offers weekly small groups called "core groups", prayer gatherings, formal teachings, and, of course, fun events.

CAMPUS MINISTRY

YOUR
FOREVER FAMILY

Chi Alpha Normal is more than just a campus ministry. We are your forever family during and after your time at Heartland Community College. College ministry is about more than just small groups and services, it's about doing life together. Embedded into the DNA of Chi Alpha Normal is recurring weekly rhythms for your core group. This could be cracking a game of billiards at the Hawks Nest Game Room together, grabbing lunch every Tuesday in the Campus Café, or catching up on homework in the Library. There are an infinite amount of things you can do with your core group; And that's the thing, its YOUR group. At Chi Alpha Normal, you aren't just another student, you are part of a true community.

CAMPUS MINISTRY

REAL DISCIPLESHIP AT HCC

HCC

Our college ministry focuses on helping you know our amazing Jesus, how much He loves you, and how much He wants the world to know about His love! In order to be transformed by the gospel, each person must actively participate in discipleship. Every student who comes to Chi Alpha Normal is assigned two leaders. These leaders are students who actively and daily pursue Jesus and His Word. Their main mission is to help you grow deeper with God and love your experience at Heartland Community College. Not only will you have weekly core group gatherings, around 5 - 10 people, you will also have one-on-one moments with one of your leaders. During your core group, you will have avid time to ask questions and discover more about what the gospel means for our universities. Plus, you will get to connect with your forever family, share a meal, and catchup on life. One on one time with your leader is a great opportunity to talk through things you struggle with believing, how to live a life that honors Jesus, and how to dive deeper into the Bible.
