Election of the 11th Deacon Board will be held in the upcoming the 19th AGM. There are 11 deacon nominees:
Joey Lin, Jeff Wei, Sean Wang, Sally Che, Tony Yeung, KC Li, KK Fong, Cassandra Lee, Selina Mak, Wynne Yum and Jenny Ip.
Sister Jia Li has withdrawn her deacon nomination and decided to dedicate her time to serve in the Mandarin Congregation Committee and Children Sunday School.
In the upcoming election, all active members will have maximum of 8 votes. To be elected as deacon, the nominees would need to have support from over 50% of the voting members. The 8 nominees who received the most votes will become the deacons for the coming two years.
