When Peter accepted Christ as his Saviour while studying in Canada, he developed a relentless passion for people that continues to this day. After graduating from McGill University in Montreal, his pastor recommended that he study at Tyndale Seminary.
“At the time, the seminary campus was only a small, two-storey building,” he recalled. “The student body was small, and there were only, maybe, six professors. All of them were knowledgeable, and their spiritual lives influenced me a lot.”
Together with his wife Shirley, Peter served as a missionary in Taiwan for four years before returning to Hong Kong to serve as a pastor.
He founded the Evangelical Free Church of China Tung Fook Church (TFC) in Hong Kong in 1991 with only 50 people in the congregation. Twenty years later, the TFC had grown to five church plants with nearly 6,000 people in attendance.
