Karen Hong

Deacon Candidate 2019

I'm from Singapore but I've lived in the States for about 15 years. My early experiences of God were through the love of my parents and our faith community in Singapore, and God's breakthrough to me in my college years that changed my purpose in life.

My husband and I started attending City Church in 2011, and we became members in 2012. Over time, as the church grew and changed, and as we became parents, we found ourselves staying, listening, learning, evolving, and growing together with City Church.

I served as a deacon from 2014-2017, and am rejoining the diaconate because I have really enjoyed this ministry. I love getting to know others deeply, and it is always a privilege to share in someone's story, accompany them through a period of need in life, and to serve alongside wonderful people. I am greatly appreciative of how this church has embraced me and my needs, and I look forward to doing that for others.
