WDA @ DePauw
Hammond's Next Generation Ministry
Meet Gina!
I met Gina during her freshman year at DePauw when she came to our worship outreach during freshman orientation before classes even started. Gina is from the Chicagoland area and was excited about meeting other Christians on campus. She got involved right away and kept on growing and serving all four years she was at DePauw! She has been one of our student leaders, and the student president of our executive team. Gina just graduated from DePauw in Chemistry. She will be working for Elanko as one of their chemists. Here is what Gina had to say about her time with WDA / Young Life (reminder: we partnered with Young Life (YL) several years ago to help us with outreach to high school students. Greg and I lead a ministry training group of YL leaders and disciple them as well as direct the high school ministry).
From Gina: One of the greatest blessings I’ve been given through WDA /Young Life is being part of a Christ-centered community of college students and mentors. I have built life-long relationships with fellow YL team members at DePauw who have helped in my journey of faith and held me accountable along the way. Navigating college as a Christian student can be difficult, and I’ve been fortunate to have like-minded friends to help me at every step. YL leaders often meet outside of our weekly meetings and club to hang out on weekends or grab coffee together during the week. I can count on my fellow leaders to offer advice and remind me of my duties as a member of YL. Additionally, Shannon and Greg have been great role models for me and truly helped in identifying ways to build my faith. Shannon has helped deepen my understanding of being a disciple of Christ through our discussions and inductive Bible-study training. Her dedication to the Lord is something I admire and has helped inspire me to strengthen my faith and dedication to Christ. My faith has grown immensely over my four years at DePauw because of these relationships I’ve built through WDA / Young Life.
