ABOUT SRT
The Great Lakes Support Raising Training (SRT) is a three day seminar designed to equip missionaries with the necessary tools and confidence to raise their budgets. During the SRT, missionaries will gain a Biblical perspective on building a team of prayer and financial partners and learn how to connect with and mobilize the partners needed to accomplish the mission you are passionate about. SRT is designed for people heading into a Campus-Missionary-in-Training (CMIT) experience, people preparing for a “Give-A-Year” experience as a Campus Missionary Associate (CMA), missionaries outside of Chi Alpha who have not raised their budget yet, or for anyone who has never received training in raising funds for mission service.
ABOUT CHI ALPHA
Chi Alpha Campus Ministries is a mission movement that engages students and faculty on hundreds of campuses in the United States with life’s hardest questions and the relevance of Jesus Christ to all of life. We hope to create an open environment where those outside the church can bring their questions and explore the life of Jesus and where Christian students can find growth and encouragement. Our efforts to reconcile students to Christ and transform the university, the marketplace, and the world have three key aims:
Chi Alpha Campus Ministries has been training and assisting its staff and students to raise prayer and financial partners for ministry and mission since the early 1990’s. Not only do we provide entry-level training for people considering campus ministry service at the staff level, but we also offer training for students and alumni to learn how to mobilize partners for a variety of mission opportunities.
- Reach Students: Our focus is to reach college students from a broad spectrum of backgrounds, especially the unchurched, root them in Christ, equip them to be life-long disciples of Christ, and send them out for effective Christian service while in school and after graduation.
- Train Leaders: Our goal is to develop students into Christ-centered laborers while they are in school as well as when they pursue employment in the marketplace. We also work to recruit, develop, and release men and women for missionary service on campus.
- Influence Nations: Reaching international students while they study in America is one way to impact nations. Another is to mobilize International and American students for vocational service overseas. We also send campus missionaries to key university centers.
