Stories of Student lives transformed (this year!)

Meet Sean. I met Sean when he attended our spring break camp, having only prayed once before in his life. He went in looking to see if God was real. By the end of the week, God became real to Sean when he saw his friend encounter God at camp. After that, Sean dedicated his life to God and just weeks later, he shared his testimony in front of dozens of fraternity and sorority students at a Greek IV event.



Meet Marshall. As an SDSU freshman, Marshall was high on drugs when the Holy Spirit put on his heart to repent and come back to Jesus. Marshall was raised a Christian but fell away from his faith. His mom continued to pray for him daily and Marshall had a drastic turnaround when he repented. He stopped drugs, sex and alcohol and began ministering to students through prayer and is now looking to enroll in Bible school. 



Meet Lisa. Previously a hardcore skeptic, Lisa was invited by her roommates (two SDSU InterVarsity leaders) to our annual Fall Retreat at Catalina Island (where I was the keynote speaker). At Catalina, she had an amazing encounter with Jesus but afterwards attempted to ignore God’s call. God did not take no for an answer and continued to press deeper into her life through her roommates. Towards the end of the Spring semester, Lisa came to faith in Jesus!



Meet Tyler, Joanna, and Marcus! Watch a video about three new Christians at UCSD!



This year 53 students became Christians at UCSD! And 149 students began their relationships with Jesus across the 9 campuses in San Diego InterVarsity! Praise God!!
