 Family and Religion

I was born in Hong Kong and have quite a lot of family members. Besides my parents, I have totally five sisters, three elders and two youngers. My elder sisters take care of me especially when I  was a teen. I love them very much, and so do they. We have good relationship and always like to help each other.

I got married on December 95. My wife, Grace, is a good woman who takes care of me especially in my days of PhD study.  Grace and I are Christians. I have got baptised on November 1989. My religion has changed my life and ways of thinking. I have no particular hobbies. I like books reading especially the Bible.  I serve the teens and youths in my church. My church is located at Yuen Long. You are welcomed to come and to discuss about Christianity with me.

I have written a passage of testimony (coming soon) about my family and religion. You could have a look at it and leave your comments. I am eager to response and discuss with you.
