Representing X A |
A little over 9 years ago when I first started as the campus director for ASU Chi Alpha, I stood in the front of a group of students in the classroom of PSH-151 and asked this question,
"How many of you girls would say that you do not really enjoy hanging out with other girls or would rather not be friends with girls?"
About 80% of the girls in the room raised their hands!!
Although, I was thankful for their honesty my heart was truly saddened. The last 9 years my heart has been to invest in time, resource & prayer into the women of ASU XA and to see God cultivate sisterhood among the XA Girl Community.
All thanks to God, over the years I have watched this change!

Although, for some girls this is still a challenging topic... I have watched these young women find healing from the Lord in areas of past hurt, rejection and betrayal. These girls are learning to find their identity in Christ alone.. they are learning to trust Jesus and go to Him first.. and then take the risk to be vulnerable with other girls and as a result they have been blessed with sisters in Christ!

God has raised up and continues to raise up strong godly women within ASU XA! These girls are world changers... they are willing to take risks... they desire to grow in relationship with God and make themselves available to invest in others! I believe that ASU XA has some of the best girls (okay, I may be a little biased.. but really!)
One area that has really added strength to our XA Girl Community is our Fusion Groups- these are our small groups. I have the great privilege to lead the XA Women's Resource Group- this group is comprised of all of the female Fusion group leaders. This is a time for them to come to be encouraged, prayer for and poured into.
I truly look forward to these times together and I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that this is a very strategic use of my time! These leaders are the real deal! Not only are they full time students, many of them are working part time jobs while they are leading a weekly small group and also doing 1on1 discipleship with a girl or two AND fulfilling the other requirements of XA Leadership!

I am thankful to these girls.. they are all investing in great ways into the younger girls in XA! I am confident that everyone of these leaders will not just leave ASU with a degree but they will leave having left a legacy for the Kingdom of God at ASU & beyond!
XA Girls if you are reading this -- thank you! We are blessed with each one of you! We love you and we are so excited to watch the Lord continue to write an amazing story with your life!
