Pastor Andrew is currently on a planned sabbatical from September 2024, returning March 15, 2025. Please contact the Elders at elders@wcfchurch.org for any inquiries during this period.
Born in America and raised in Canada to Hong Kong immigrants, Andrew has spent most of his life bridging cultures. After a career as a Mechanical Engineer in airline operations, he entered pastoral ministry while completing a Master of Divinity at Regent College and graduated from the Arrow Leadership program. Prior to Washington Community Fellowship, Andrew served as a staff pastor in a variety of Protestant church traditions - hence his identification as a “spiritual mutt within Christian orthodoxy.” A constant and inquisitive learner, he loves to have conversations with people about what makes them tick. Most of all, one of his greatest joys as a pastor comes from recognizing the glimmers of God’s grace at work in people’s lives, especially when that grace intersects with areas of flourishing and justice in our world.
Andrew and his wife Julia, a marketing professional, are often seen cruising on their bikes enjoying the sights and cuisines of DC. Together with their adult child, Ashley, they are making new memories together as a family through bouldering and discovering new outdoor adventures after becoming suicide-loss survivors in 2023.
Andrew also currently serves as a board member for Evangelicals 4 Justice.
