Wellington Staff WorkerGina's family moved from Malaysia to New Zealand in 1989. She has a great passion for singing and music, and loves being around people of all ages and cultures, and sharing life with them.
What is Gina Wong's job at TSCF?
Gina's role as a staffworker at Massey University (Wellington) is a pioneering role, as there is no TSCF group on this campus. She is also seconded as a part-time chaplain, helping to gain a greater understanding of this commuter campus, and to develop a strategy on how to reach out to these students. She also works with the TSCF groups at Victoria University (Christian Union and Wellington International Christian Fellowship), training the students leaders, and being their all-round cheerleader!
Gina has the desire to see gospel-shaped communities established on campus, and is commited to help students become genuine followers of Jesus.
A little about Gina Wong...
Gina calls herself a confused Malaysian, of Chinese heritage, who has lived in Aotearoa for the last two decades. She's been involved with TSCF groups since 1995, as a student leader, graduate, and advisor. She was also the warden/manager of Kia Maia International Students Hostel for 4 years... and absolutely LOVED it!
Gina loves to travel, the outdoors, and the occasional tramping/camping trip. Climbing Mt Kinabalu in Malaysia is on her wishlist of places-to-visit. She also loves food from around the world, not to mention, an obsession with pickling and preserving. Another thing you may not know about her, she grew up with two communist pet monkeys. Ask her about it!
