Lidiya (above left), a student at American River College (ARC) describes herself as a seeker.  She is a first-year engineering student, and has entered into her college life full of questions. She wants to learn what is true and what life is all about.  

Lidiya first learned about Cru during one of our days tabling on campus.  She came up and began asking Juan (above right), on of our student leaders, why he became a Christian in high school, how he knows that the gospel is true, and what it means to have a relationship with Jesus.

After that initial conversation, and over the past month, Lidiya has joined Juan, Steven (Cameron’s co-leader) and several other students on Mondays to study the life of Jesus in the gospel of Luke.  

Some of the students attending the Monday lunch group are solid in their faith while others are just coming back to the Lord after a season of wandering in high school. But each, like Lidiya, is interested in who Jesus is, and it is evident that God is stirring in these students’ hearts.  

Thank you for helping create spaces and opportunities for students like Lidiya to ask questions and get answers! We are grateful for your prayers and investment in these students’ lives!
