Cross Bridge Ministry: Minister Jeffrey Hwang (跨越橋事工：黃以傑傳道)
Jeff was born and raised in the suburbs of Greater Boston. He began attending CBCGB at an early age along with his family. He grew up quite literally in this church, having come to faith in Jesus here and having been a part of the many different ministries with each life stage. Through a traumatic life-changing event, God began to pave a path for Jeff that was different from his peers. He attended Gordon College, graduating with degrees in biblical studies and economics and a minor in business administration. Though Jeff had aspirations to be successful by worldly standards, God challenged him to place his trust and identity in Christ alone. Sensing God’s call to vocational ministry at an early age and eventually obeying, Jeff continued his studies at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary where he earned his Master of Divinity, while also continuing to serve at CBCGB. After graduating in 2015, Jeff served as the Assistant English Ministry Pastor at Logos Community Church in New York. Jeff is married to Ying, whom he met in the college fellowship at CBCGB. Together, they have an adopted Yorkie named Clover. God has called Jeff and Ying back to Boston, where Jeff will continue advancing the Kingdom of God through the local church as the Cross Bridge minister and Ying will continue serving God in the marketplace as a Tufts pediatrics medical resident. Having had his faith largely shaped and matured through the ministries of those who came before him at CBCGB, Jeff looks forward to continuing that work as the Cross Bridge minister.
黃以傑生長在大波士頓郊區，小時候跟著家人到波士頓郊區華人聖經教會聚會，可以說，他在這個教會裡長大、在這裡相信耶穌，在人生不同的階段參與不同的服事。藉著一次改變他生命的意外傷害，上帝為以傑舖展了一條與同伴們不同的道路。他就讀哥頓學院，獲有聖經研究和經濟學學士，輔修商業管理。儘管以傑的抱負與世人眼中的成功相仿，上帝挑戰他單單信靠和認定基督。以傑在很年輕的時候就感受到神對他的聖召，終於，他順服神，繼續在哥頓康威神學院攻讀道學碩士學位，同時也繼續在本教會服事。2015年畢業後，以傑在紐約樂道堂擔任英語部助理牧師。以傑與張穎異相識於本教會大專生團契，結婚後，他們收養了一隻約克夏狗名叫Clover。上帝呼召以傑和穎異回到波士頓，以傑擔任跨越橋傳道，繼續從事神國藉著地方教會拓展的服事；穎異繼續在醫療界服事神，擔任塔夫茨小兒科住院醫師。以傑的信仰藉著本教會屬靈前輩服事的塑造而成熟，他期待以跨越橋傳道的角色延續這樣的服事成效。
