Jade Cheung (M.Div. 1) Jade Cheung and her husband Guihao Since elementary school, I have had many opportunities to come into contact with Christianity, but due to various reasons and excuses, I did not decide to believe in the Lord until I was working at a Christmas sermon meeting.

Later, God inspired me to learn to serve outside the church, so I served in the fellowship of the middle school and the Campus Crusade for Christ in the university. I received discipleship from Campus Crusade for Christ and began to take part in the believers’ courses at different seminaries. I gradually discovered that I had a heart that was willing to learn the truth in depth, and a desire to grow together with my brothers and sisters and to build up each other. ...
