Deja grew up in a church where she not only heavily participated in, but was taught how “Jesus loves you and is a powerful king.” However, she never considered how Jesus’ power could affect her life.

Deja began to seek approval from the world to make her happy. She then felt the exhaustion from things or people who weren’t fulfilling. She eventually came to the conclusion the she wanted things to change. 

In 2018, Deja met Resident Advisor Maleny, who is now a Campus Outreach staff member. Maleny built a genuine friendship with Deja and eventually shared the gospel. Deja was finally able to realize how Jesus’ immense power is more than what it seems. She realized that His powerfulness reflects His love. A love that she was seeking from the approval of the world.

A weight was lifted off Deja’s shoulder and she was able to feel true joy and love. Deja then gave her life to Christ in the summer of 2019. She wanted to be light on campus and help students see how the approval of man means nothing when we have God’s approval. She loves to see students become invested in Jesus and to be a witness of them finding joy in their eternal life-changing decision to follow Jesus Christ their Lord and Savior.
