My Story
Hello! My name is Alexander Lyons. I grew up on a farm outside of Prairie City, Iowa. Even as a young boy, GOD has has given me a passion for digital art, storytelling, and video games. Through youth group at Adventure Life Church, I found Jesus Christ, the author of the universe's storyline and the creative designer of joy and love!
After graduating PCM High School in 2016, I studied at Western Iowa Tech Community College to study video game design. There, I got involved with the Sioux Empire chapter of Campus Crusade for Christ (Cru). The Holy Spirit matured me and broke my heart for the many nations and ethnic groups around the world who are unreached by the gospel. As a result, upon graduating WITCC in December 2018, I decided to commit my life to Christian ministry.
My Role
I serve as a full-time missionary for the Jesus Film Project. We are ministry of Cru based in Orlando, Florida. We partner with the Body of Christ through heart language media, so everyone, everywhere can encounter Jesus. The world today is connected through the internet, social media, and emerging technology. A digital missions field requires digital strategies! The good news of Jesus Christ never changes, but the means of its proclamation and application must always adapt to our changing world.
I am a Computer Graphics Artist and Extended Reality (XR) Specialist. My job is to use 3D computer modelling software and video game engine technology to create interactive virtual assets and environments for ministry usage in Metaverse platforms such as Roblox, VRChat, Horizons, etc. It is these virtual spaces where many among the emerging generation (Gen Z and Gen Alpha) spend their entire lives. Many are lost, lonely, and living without a purpose in life. They are genuinely seeking a transformative faith experience and a Church that helps heal their hurting hearts.
The next generation is waiting to experience Christ. Will you join me on this incredible adventure?
My Vision
Through walking in the POWER of the Holy Spirit, everyone can hear the gospel and see Jesus.
Everyone should be presented with a clear choice to either ACCEPT or DENY Him.
By faith in Jesus Christ, all families of the world will be blessed!
My Need
Cru is a nonprofit ministry organization and has no means of generating funds on its own. Missionaries like myself must raise up a team of concerned individuals, families, and churches to financially support our ministries. Financial giving can be one-time, monthly, quarterly, annual, etc.
