Open Yung - Cantonese Associate Pastor

Why did you enter full time ministry?
I see that there are too many broken lives in this world, and the ravages of sin on people’s bodies and minds, affecting both individuals and relationships. I want to help people rebuild their lives and help people return to the beautiful state when God originally created them: to be at peace with God, with people, and with nature.

Why do you feel called to this church, at this time, and how do you plan to help SCCEFC?
SCCEFC welcomed a group of Hong Kong people under the current wave of immigrants. In the past two years, the number has been doubled. Among them, there are many young parents with their young children. Their families have moved to Canada to settle down and look for churches. I hope to walking with the new immigrant parents. Since they have to take care both of their parents and young children, I hope the church can provide helps, teach the truth, share the journey together, and learn how to take on different roles in life. Let their family become a safe haven and a platform to love and be loved!

What is your vision of the future for SCCEFC? Where would you like to take our church family? 
One day, SCCEFC will become a even more stronger church! Let’s imagine this: the entire congregation looks like a map, in the south side of Calgary. There are many shining red dots on the map, and each red dot represents some believers who are growing healthy. These red dots change from dots to lines, and lines to surfaces, connecting the entire group, like one body, serving God, serving the community, and witnessing Christ! I hope I am among them, helping to build and lay the foundation, so that SCCEFC is like a shining light in Calagry.
