Rev
Joseph Tan
was called by the Lord to full-time ministry in 1985 when he was
still in the National Service. The Lord did such a deep work that
upon completion of the National Service, he gave up his place in the
National University of Singapore and instead enrolled himself in the
bible school. He graduated with a B.A. in Theology and subsequently
M.A. in Pastoral Leadership.
Apart
from pastoral ministry in the local church since 1987, Pastor Joseph
spent almost three years in Taiwan as a missions pastor. He also
served for three years in the Pacific Island of Palau as an On-Air
Minister, preaching the gospel to China through powerful short-wave
radio broadcast. Being effectively bilingual, he preaches and
teaches effectively in both English and Mandarin.
The Lord has
also taken him to many missions trips in the Asia Pacific region:
Japan, Philippines, China, Australia, New Zealand, Cambodia,
Vietnam, Thailand, Guam, Tonga, Marshall Islands, etc.
Pastor Joseph is married to Pastor Eileen and they have
two boys: Barnabas (14 years old) and Elijah (9 years old). Pastor Eileen runs the children program of the church – King’s Kids as
well as the youth group. She also helps with the administrative
needs of the church. She is very much loved by the members for her
love and care in counseling.
