Formerly I was a policeman in Hongkong. I sought after life of entertainment and gambling.I worshipped false gods and idols with other policemen .Although I had authority ,money and so much entertainment,these things didn¡¦t give me satisfaction and peace.I felt empty inside and my heart was filled with anxieties. Due to my undisciplined lifestyle, I became seriously ill. I visited diferent doctors many times ,but my health got worse almost to the point of death.But thanks be to the Lord Jesus Christ, I came to know Jesus at the Police Christian Fellowship. I prayed and accepted Christ as my Sarvior. Jesus saved me from the sinful life and healed me . I thanked God and responded to God¡¦s call by being trained at the China Graduate School of Thology .God gave me the burden the sharing the gospel and doing the work of an evangelist. My ministry included : serving as a volunteer chaplain in the hospital, a pastor in a youth drug rehabilitation center, a pastor in a local church, and a ministerial staff of a gospel organization. It is most meaningful and joyful for me to lead people to Christ and to invest in the Kingdom ministry. In 1999, God brought my family (wife, Eva; and two daughters, Doris and Chara) to America. We have been serving at Chinese Baptist Church since 2000.
