Who We Are
Lighthouse is the youth ministry of Austin Chinese Church leading 6th to 12th grade students to grow in their relationship with Jesus. We accomplish this through Scripture, discipleship, prayer, and missions. We desire to relevantly meet our students where they experience their particular hurdles to living out the Gospel in their own lives. Lighthouse is a safe space for students to explore the meaning and purpose of their lives through God’s Word and forming meaningful friendships.

Our Youth Pastor: Dominic Chan

He graduated from Boston University with a business degree in finance and entrepreneurship and received his Master of Divinity at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. Before joining ACC, Dominic apprenticed at Boston Chinese Evangelical Church and interned at Golden Gate Christian Church in San Francisco. Dominic met his wife, Lynn, in college through Intervarsity and they are passionate to see Chinese-American students richly steeped in the Gospel to reach the world. They have three young sons, Micah, Jordan, and Zion. In his spare time, Dominic enjoys cooking, trying new restaurants, playing basketball, traveling, reading, listening to podcasts, and wandering up and down the aisles of Costco.
