A Little About Me

I was raised in NC by Godly parents and came to know Christ as a child.  I attended Appalachian State University where I grew deeper in my faith through my involvement in Cru (Campus Crusade for Christ).  In 1987 I joined the full-time staff with Cru and served in the Campus Ministry for 32 years: 13 years of those years on the Cru Campus Team at UNC-Chapel Hill and 19 years as a regional National Director of Cru Global Missions, helping to send teams and long-term staff around the world to launch and build campus ministries across the globe.  In 2019 I transitioned to The Jesus Film Project (JFP).  JFP is the media arm of the Cru's global mission, focusing on resourcing the Body of Christ with Gospel-centered media in the heart-languages of the world. We partner with the Body of Christ in the areas of evangelism and discipleship

My Ministry

I currently serve with the Global Mobilization department of The Jesus Film Project. One of my main roles involves helping to connect our Jesus Film media resources with ministries and churches that focus on reaching those from the top unreached countries of the world. I help to serve as a "bridge" between JFP and these partners in the Body of Christ, learning about their mission and needs and helping to resource them with our JFP media tools that can serve them in their Kingdom work around the world.  My current work is focused on North America, Australia, New Zealand, and the Pacific Islands.  Specifically, those in this geography who are reaching out to those from the unreached countries of the world, which are predominantly immigrants, refugees, and international students.

Ways CCC Members Can Help

  • Prayer: The biggest way that church members can partner with me is through prayer.  I need and depend on the Lord for all I do and I need partners who will hold me up in prayer. Please contact me at Dana.Saleeby@cru.org if you would like to be added to my prayer letter.
  • Partnership:  If members of the church are a part of reaching out to or building relationships with immigrants, refugees, and international students in the area, I'd be very happy to connect with them to share some of our resources that may help them as they trust God to use them to point these people to Christ.  I am also available to help short-term mission teams learn how to use some of our media tools on their mission trip, if desired and applicable.

  • Giving:  If individuals would like to join my Ministry Partner Team financially, that is always welcome!  They can do so at:  https://give.cru.org/0376757
