What is your ministry?

I lead a group of Christian students to live out their God-given mission inside their places of study. I encourage them to follow Jesus Christ, become stronger in their faith, and be on a mission for Him here and now.

When did you trust Christ?

I decided to follow God when I was a child. I don’t remember a specific day. In my teenage and young adult years, I reaffirmed this decision.

What have been the defining moments of your Christian walk?

The real-life example of Christian believers I met as a child with an American host family during my stay overseas has greatly impacted my faith. My faith has also grown from reading books and internet resources on Christian apologetics. I have learned to trust God in a new way after learning from experience that God sees and answers my thoughts and questions, even if they are never voiced.

What do you hope to gain from participating?

It will allow me to learn from and with others involved in similar efforts. It is a great opportunity to get a deeper understanding and expertise in a particular area of Christian service—an opportunity to connect with professionals who live out their beliefs in their respective professional environments.

What is your leadership role or what were your past leadership roles?

For the last five years, I’ve been a volunteer leading missionary efforts among college students in my home city, particularly among international students. Most recently, in the last two years, this has become my part-time and now full-time activity. I also volunteered in an inter-church ministry as an English teacher for adults for over ten years.

Why should someone invest in your ministry?

You should invest in my ministry to be encouraged and motivated in evangelism.
