What happened to the thousands of college students that came to San Diego this fall to begin college? Read some snapshots around the city of God's powerful movement!
The harvest at UCSD
Check out these numbers (and think about all the work!):
Nearly 1,400 free hamburgers and hotdogs given away.
15,000 flyers distributed throughout campus!
Over 1,000 response cards to follow up with.
Over 500 students at the first InterVarsity Wednesday night.
All this work done by staff and students was abundantly worth it when 24 students made first time decisions to become Christians and 43 students made re-commitments to follow Jesus in college.
Momentum growing at SDSU
It has been an unprecedented fall at San Diego State. Already, in the first month, there have been more student conversions to faith than all of last year! They have seen international students coming to faith, Fraternity and Sorority students called to follow Jesus, and students in the dorms say YES to a life following Christ. The staff and student leaders are energized by this momentum, eager to see what God will do throughout this year!

CSU San Marcos' second week...
Up at CSU San Marcos, they had 9 students come to faith at their first Large Group. Then... during their second week, 11 students came to faith! Usually the first week is the biggest group of students, and most people respond. How great that even more were thirsty for God the second week of school!
A student who came to faith the first week of school boldly proclaimed his testimony (which you can listen to here) at an outreach on campus just four weeks later.
At USD, and the community colleges around San Diego, God continues to move and pursue students, and there are many more stories to share. Pray with us for students to find new life in Jesus as they come to college, and that this movement of the Holy Spirit will only continue to grow throughout this year!
