IT ALL STARTED WHEN…
Fort Collins, the home of Colorado State University, began as “Camp Collins,” a military outpost. An outpost can always be identified by one feature: it is found on the frontiers of the unknown and yet-to-be established. In 2009 a team of 10 long-time friends moved to Fort Collins, Colorado to start a Christian community at CSU which came to be named “The Outpost” - a spiritual outpost for students at CSU and the hub for Chi Alpha in Colorado.
Those 10 came with one mission: to create small groups at CSU of students who would learn how to follow Jesus. The students who joined that first year were from different backgrounds, different interests, and different beliefs, but over time they all came to find one thing in common: the exceedingly great value of Jesus.
NOW HERE WE ARE…
As these students learned to follow Jesus, they joined in the mission to help others do the same. Each year since then, more and more students have joined in this mission, and our goal is to have enough small group leaders so that every single student at CSU knows at least one person who is truly following Jesus. We believe that all are called to follow Jesus and every follower of Jesus is called to the mission. We believe the best way to do that is through small groups.
The Outpost is part of one of the largest and fastest growing national campus ministries called Chi Alpha. To learn more about Chi Alpha click here.
