WILFRED TING-KEA CHUNG A leader in religious services, Dr. Wilfred Ting-Kea Chung has been pastor emeritus at the Chinese Community Baptist Church of South Orange County since 2019. In the 1980s, he was requested by the El Toro Baptist Church to found a Chinese religious congregation that would have the potential to become an independent church to serve needs of the Chinese American community in Orange County. Establishing a permanent church in 2006, he was a founding member of the Sacramento Chinese Baptist Church for 15 years prior to rejoining the Chinese Community Baptist Church of South Orange County. Dr. Chung is proudest of establishing congregations in South Orange County and Sacramento. He was inspired by his grandfather, Pastor Tai Choo Tse, the first pastor to build a church in Guangdong Province, China. In 2011, Dr. Chung reestablished the church in a farm community. Earning a DMin from the Talbot School of Theology, he was the first National Chinese Ambassador of the North American Mission Board. For the past decade, he has been executive member of the trustee board of Truth Theological Seminary and adjunct professor. He has preached in churches, pastoral conferences and seminaries throughout the nation since 1967.
