**Alpha and Every Student Sent**

**If you are new to Every Student Sent see [Engage](https://pages.everystudentsent.org/engage?hsLang=en)**

#### Every Student Sent is all about gathering, preparing, and connecting high schools students so they are equipped to share the Gospel starting from their first month on campus, when non-Christians are so especially open to new ideas and new friends.  Check out the [Student Pages on Engage](https://pages.everystudentsent.org/engage?hsLang=en)

#### [The College Awakening Sweet-Spot](https://pages.everystudentsent.org/sweetspot?hsLang=en)- Why the fall freshmen semester is built for multiplication.

#### Alpha is all about equipping high school and college students with relational tools to explore faith in an open and inviting conversational environment.

#### Now High School students can experience leading Youth Alpha, so you are ready to hit the ground running with the Alpha Film Series in your dorms or over Zoom!

#### Current college students can use the Alpha Film Series all through college to create campus-wide Gospel Movements!  Click the images below for the Alpha websites:

- Preserve and prepare all your high school students and young adults  See [Church Page](https://pages.everystudentsent.org/churches-1?hsLang=en)

#### Benefits to College Ministries

#### Initiating Alpha at a University
