Hope
A story about hope in Christ working through AGO during the pandemic.
Laying the Groundwork
One of the things I love about AGO is how many brothers deepen their faith, establish eternal relationships and some are moved to go into full-time missions work. Don’t get me wrong, we are all really in full-time ministry regardless of whether you sit at a desk, pound nails or sweep floors for a living. …
Announcement regarding Pismo 2020
It is with sadness that I, on behalf of the Kappa Chapter, must inform you that the annual AGO Pismo Flag Football Tournament is cancelled this year. The primary reason is obvious – a gathering of its size is currently unsafe since it poses a health risk to both ourselves and for those around us. …

If you are like me, you probably wake up in the morning and wonder what kind of bad news you will hear given coronavirus, the economy, unemployment, etc. There definitely can be an underlying stress that goes with all of this. We also wonder how this can impact AGO. Will online classes change how the …
Consistency
One of the things I love about AGO is how consistently the fraternity has provided a foundation and template for men to grow in their knowledge of Christ and getting to know Him more intimately. When asked what level of impact AGO had on their spiritual lives during college, almost all answer that it was …
Having a Good Day
I was talking with a friend today and he was relating how it was a tough week. Work was stressful and things at home were not much better. On one particularly rough day he received “out of the blue” an encouraging email from an old friend. She reminisced about her husband meeting him and how …
