WSCCC

Alex is an Australian born Chinese and grew up in Oatley, Sydney. Art/books/music/film and backpacking preoccupied his life until he received Jesus as Lord in his first year at uni, through hearing the gospel at a mid-year conference. He trained as a librarian, working in local libraries and university administration, enjoying interaction with people of diverse cultures and backgrounds.

Through studying the Bible and talking to mission and ministry-minded people, he discovered a passion for the lost and for God’s people. He enjoyed local church ministry working with young children, teenagers, young adults and overseas students through WSCCC.

During a short-term mission with OMF to Japan, God grew and confirmed a desire to do ministry with people in Japan. As part of a two-year OMF internship, he spent time learning language and culture while training under experienced OMF missionaries and serving with God’s people in Japan.

Alex returned in early 2009 and worked with OMF Australia as their Serve Asia coordinator for a year. He is now back studying at Sydney Missionary & Bible College in preparation for long-term service overseas.
