Pastor Andrew Chan
Pastor Andrew has been serving as a pastor since 1991 in various English-speaking Chinese churches and multi-cultural churches in Calgary, Vancouver and now in Richmond. Even though he was raised in a Buddhist home, he came to know that God loved him and that Christ died for him as a teenager in the late 1970’s. In the early 1980’s he moved to Canada from Malaysia, landing in Toronto, in the middle of winter.

God called him to fulltime ministry while studying at the University of Winnipeg. Upon completing his undergraduate work with the Bachelor of Arts in Psychology/Administrative Studies, sensing God’s direction he pursued seminary studies. The local church family (Fort Richmond Assembly) in Winnipeg has been instrumental in his call to ministry. With their encouragement and support, he graduated with the Master of Arts (Biblical Counseling) from Providence Theological Seminary, Otterburne, Manitoba and also with the Master of Religious Education from Canadian Theological Seminary, Regina, Saskatchewan. He was ordained in 1995 at Calgary Faith Mennonite Church, which was a church made up of second-generation Canadian born Chinese.

His passion is to help others to experience grace and peace in the unconditional love of God by faith in Jesus. He understands that no one is perfect and everyone needs more than a second-chance. So drop him a line via e-mail or visit him in the church office (Tuesdays-Fridays, 9am-3pm) or make an appointment. He would love to share God’s amazing Good News with you!
