Pastors Jess and Alice Shao

Jess Shao (M.Div. Multnomah Biblical Seminary, Portland, Oregon) and Alice Shao (B.A. Psychology University of California, Davis) have been in full-time ministry for the past 20 years. They have served as pastors in the context of English ministries within the Chinese Church in the United States. Jess and Alice moved from California to Kansas City in March 2008 along with their children, Abigail, Moses, Josiah, and Nehemiah. In June of 2008 they were appointed to lead the Chinese Ministry at the International House of Prayer. In 2014, they moved to Taiwan as missionaries and have been serving there as itinerant speakers, consultants, and pastoral counselors. They have also been serving in the Family Journey leadership core team both in the national and international context. Both Jess and Alice share a passion to see Chinese Christians worldwide experience the depths of the Father’s love, to find healing and freedom in Christ, and to walk in deep partnership with Jesus as His eternal beloved bride. They long to be used of the Lord to prepare the Church for the return of Jesus.
