Ministry Areas

A bit about me
I came to Australia from China in 2012 as an international student. The first week of my arrival, I was invited to a church and soon decided to follow Jesus. This has turned out to be the best decision I have made in my life! Over the years, I have been blessed by God through a lot of Christian friends and have become more confident in my identity as a beloved child of God.
During my bachelor's studies, I became involved with Power to Change, a student ministry on campus. Through this ministry, I gained clarity about my calling, which is to share the Good News of Jesus with outsiders, particularly those who come from overseas and may have limited opportunities to learn about God.
Aside from my part-time role at Riverlife, I work as a support worker with people with disabilities. This has helped me to grow in compassion and understanding of people's unseen struggles in their lives.
I'm a nature and animal lover. My two-year-old orange cat can perform more than 10 tricks. If you want to train your cats, I'm happy to share my tips.
Most defining moment
My most defining moment occurred after experiencing some frustrating times with my family and job. One night, God spoke to me clearly. He said: "I didn't send you to this world for materials and recognition, I sent you to love my people as I love you”. This message completely shifted my mindset and made my purpose clear.
Why I do what I do
He is the shepherd, I am the lamb. The lamb does not know the shepherd's plan, but when He calls, the lamb follows.
