The Rev. Siu Chun Leung
May the peace of the Lord be always with you!
I am Rev. Siu Chun Leung, the new priest-in-charge of St. Elizabeth’s Church, and have been serving here since November 1, 2023. It is a new beginning, a new attempt, and a new direction for me and the church. I firmly believe that the
Lord, in His goodness, will lead the congregation of St. Elizabeth’s according to His will.
I am from Hong Kong and received theological training from three seminaries in Hong Kong, including the Lutheran Theological Seminary, Divinity School of Chung Chi College of the Chinese University of Hong Kong and Ming Hua Theological College of the Hong Kong Sheng Kung Hui (Anglican). I was ordained as a deacon of the Hong Kong Anglican Church on April 25, 2010, and as a priest on October 28, 2011. I have served in three churches in Hong Kong before coming to Vancouver at the end of 2022. Under the guidance of the Lord, I came to Mississauga a year later. The Lord led me through wonderful experiences during this period of transition. I strongly believe that God’s grace protects me and takes care of me in times of difficulties or challenges on my pastoral journey. Just as the prophet Jeremiah said: “Lord God! It is you who made the heavens and the earth by your great power and by your outstretched arm! Nothing is too hard for you.” (Jeremiah 32:17)
I hope to work and move forward with the brothers and sisters of St. Elizabeth’s church; to be salt and light for the Lord; to make this church a temple close to the Lord; and to make this church a comfort for the poor and weak. Remember: Nothing is too hard for the Lord.
願主的平安常與你們同在!
我是新任的主理牧師,自2023年11月1日開始在這裡事奉,一個新開始,一個新嘗 試,一個新方向。我深信上主有祂的美意,祂也對頌主堂有祂的心意及引領。
我來自香港,在香港分別接受過三間神學院的訓練,包括信義宗神學院、香港中文大學崇基神學院及香港聖公會明華神學院。我於2010年4月25日被香港聖公會封為會吏,並於2011年10月28日封為牧師。在香港前後服侍過三間教堂。2022年尾來到溫哥華,在上主的引領下,相隔大概一年,再來到密西沙加,當中經歷上主很多奇妙的安排。我深信,在主裡,在牧職路上,無論遇上怎麼樣的困難或挑戰,也會有主的恩典保守及看顧,正如耶利米先知說過的一句話:「主上帝,看哪,祢曾用大能和伸出來的膀臂創造天和地,在祢沒有難成的事。」(耶利米書32:17)盼望與頌主堂的弟兄姊妹,一同努力,一同向前邁進,為主作鹽作光,讓這間教堂成為與上主親近的殿,讓這間教堂成為困苦軟弱者的安慰所,緊記:在主裡沒有難成的事。
