Administrative history

The Winnipeg Chinese Mennonite Church traces its beginning to the Bible study group consisting of Mandarin-speaking immigrants that began meeting in the early 1970s, forming a congregation in 1975. The congregation met in the Bethel Mennonite Church and in 1979 joined the Conference of Mennonites in Manitoba. Chinese students were attracted to this congregation from the beginning. The leaders of the congregation were: Frances Tung (1979-1981), Jonathan Chen (1983), Pak Lee Chong (1984-1987), David Chi Ming Tam (1988-1992), Wank King Hung (1993-1999), John Wang (2000- ).
