Clarence was not raised in a Christian home and it was in Junior High that he came to know the Lord as his personal Savior through a friend who invited him to attend Youth Group events and know the Youth Pastor at his friend's church. He understood Christ's sacrifice for him and the freedom that would be gained in a relationship with Jesus and entered into a relationship with Christ at age 14. His journey with Christ was a bit of a roller coaster through High School and it was in the year 2000 that he surrendered his life fully to Christ's call on his life to be involved in vocational Christian ministry. In 2003 he moved to Black Forest Academy in Germany to serve as a Resident Assistant in the boarding program at Black Forest Academy.

Clarence and Anna met in 2003 and were married in 2005 in which they answered the Lord's call to serve as Youth Pastors at North York Chinese Baptist Church from 2005 to 2012. In 2012 the Lord led Anna and Clarence's family back to Black Forest Academy with their 2 little boys to serve as the Middle School Chaplain and serve missionary families and their children at Black Forest Academy.

My Current role in Teach Beyond BFA
Clarence is now serving as the Team Lead with TeachBeyond in Kandern. This role includes keeping a pulse on the 143 TeachBeyond Members (adults and kids) that are serving at Black Forest Academy and various other ministries supported by TeachBeyond in the area. Clarence works within a team to ensure, to the best of their abilities, that the members of TeachBeyond in the area are being cared for in a way that allows them to thrive in their service at their project. We also seek to build community and create camaraderie amongst our team members. One significant challenge that Clarence faces is being able to provide genuine and authentic care for our large team and building a system/culture of mutual care so that it doesn't fall solely as Clarence's responsibility.

Christina Wai

I am on Facebook, Signal, and WhatsApp. [email protected]
My newsletters (they always include prayer items) are in both English and Traditional Chinese.

I grew up in a non-christian home but my older brother went to Christian school and became the first believer in our family. Since then he started to share Jesus and took my to church gospel events. One time, the message was about God willing to forgive all our sins; I was touched but thought that I want to know more before deciding to believe. The next day, the message was about how simple faith is, just like toddlers eating eggs. So I decided to trust this God who is willing to forgive even I don’t understand everything He feeds me.

In college retreat, I committed to served God full-time but has never thought of how. After working some years, and wanting to spend time with aging parents, God led me to a missionary school (Youth With A Mission). One step at a time, God called me to pioneer a team in Kobe, Japan. With prayer and getting to know the team, I responded by saying yes. Again trusting this good God even I can’t see what’s ahead.

My Current Role
At the moment I am a self-funded missionary involved with both international sender Youth With A Mission in Osaka and a local ministry near Kobe. This year we are pioneering a bilingual bible school which I serve as administrative and tutoring staff. Since everything is new, there are trials and errors. And this is an intense school, so yes, lots of reading and homework (which I need to grade). My prayer is that students and staff from this school will be infused with the passion for His Word and stay to staff the next school. The local ministry I have been working with for the last 3+ years is Onfire Japan. We focus on discipleship through bible study and mentoring. Since 2021, we have been doing LIVE morning worship everyday and a few other theme-focus hours throughout the week. I have been joining LIVE panel, providing technical support and training. We have team members who are very willing to jump in if there is a gap but we need more to be willing so we can expand to more hours and cover more themes. My prayer is to start a Chinese-Japanese hour.

About To The Nations Fellowship/OnFire Japan/YWAM
My Canadian Charity partner “To The Nations Fellowship” was founded to come alongside the Body of Christ to facilitate sending Christians on long and short term missions.

Onfire Japan, founded in 1995 to minister after a major earthquake in Kansai, is a Christian ministry dedicated to seeing Japan and Japanese Christians filled with the presence and power of God. We equip believers for discipleship and simple church planting through

online media, networking and training. We’re excited for the opportunity to work together to see revival come to the church and the harvest come to Japan.

Youth With A Mission, founded in 1960, is a global movement of Christians from many cultures, age groups and Christian traditions, dedicated to serving Jesus throughout the world.

Josh & Deb Wong

Both of us, at a young age, having grown up with a Christian home, made a simple acceptance to have Jesus be our Lord and Saviour.

For Josh, while attending the University of Calgary, he joined P2C - Students to study the bible on campus, and upon graduating in 2000, joined staff with P2C to help launch the campus ministry in Halifax, Nova Scotia.

For Deb, she always knew ministry would be a significant part of her life. She assumed it would come later in life after she had established a career. However, when she witnessed a different reality in P2C at her time at Dalhousie University in Halifax. So in 2003, she graduated and joined staff with P2C, ministering alongside Josh in Halifax.

Our Current Role at P2C - Students
Josh, as director of Strategy and Operations team, helps students take their next step towards Jesus by coordinating the strategic planning process of the ministry and creating and managing infrastructure to effectively and efficiently deliver ministry objectives. As a member of the National Leadership Team, he helps to implement change management processes to help the ministry achieve the desired outcomes of our plans and goals.

Deb, as director of the Creative Communications team, helps students connect with opportunities that help them take their next step towards Jesus. Through communication spaces like our p2c.com/students website, social media (insta: @p2cstudents), and resourcing in-person conversations, we design, create videos, write, inviting students to get involved with a local community, go on a mission trip, consider internship, and more. She also helps her team members in fund-raising.

About Power to Change
Starting at the University of British Columbia in 1967 (as Campus Crusade for Christ), Power to Change has been steadfast in helping people know Jesus and experience His power to change the world for close to 60 years.

Today, Power to Change has 10 ministries across Canada and belongs to a network of global ministry partners through Cru International to help people know Jesus and experience His power to change the world.
