Columbia College Chi Alpha

Today as a family, community and the body of Christ we want to all come together to lift up some very special needs in our nation right now. Here is our prayer focus with some specific points

-Hurt the Black Community is going through right now.
-Our black students on our campuses and in XA are hurting right now and struggling through this difficult time.
-Prayer in Action. Don’t just pray for your fellow student, contact them and let them know you care. Reconciling people to Christ and each other begins with a conversation.
