Role in the Community

  • Presbyterian pastor serving the Taiwanese American community; TAH profile lists teaching at 台灣神學院 and pastorship at the Atlanta Taiwanese Presbyterian Church from 2002 (TAH church record: 亞特蘭大台灣長老教會, 2016).
  • Remembered in the church-planting narrative of Saint Ann Taiwanese Presbyterian Church (NJ): at the first service after the 1999-04-04 founding worship (36 attended vs. the 30 target), 洪健棣牧師 remarked:「恁信心太小,為什麼不向上帝多要人?至少目標100人。」
  • Also among the guest preachers who supported the young congregation alongside王成章、陳尚仁、康進順、那赫莫、廖學銘、董俊蘭、蔡慈倫、胡志疆、鄭連德 ([[works/taiwaneseamericanhistory-org/ourjourneys43|Our Journeys #43: 聖恩教會植堂記]]). The memoir’s account of the first service after the 1999-04-04 founding worship adds context: the narrator serving as 司會 counted 36 adults and children (target 30), and the 台灣國大代表 speech at the mother church that day drew attendees away from worship.
