Serving since June of 2005 Education: Bachelor of Theology Degree , China 1998. Master of Theology Degree, Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary, 2005 Goals and Philosophy: The Lord has called the church to proclaim the gospel “to every nation, tribe, language and people” (Revelation 14:6). The Word of God sets us free from any individual person’s ideas. Whether we speak in English or Chinese, we work together to preach the true gospel because the gospel is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes. Vision for the Future: How can we take the gospel to the world? Today God brings people from many different nationalities to the United States to live as our neighbors. God has blessed this land with the freedom to share the Gospel. God has given us the opportunity to share our faith with the new immigrants who, in turn, can take the gospel back to their homeland. So in a sense, we are doing world mission work in our own backyard.
