Explore Hong Kong: ‘Asia’s World City’

 

Hong Kong is a city of immense physical and social contrasts. Serene islands and uninhabited hill areas are only miles away from some of the most densely populated spots on the face of the world. Over 90% of the total population is Chinese, primarily speaking Cantonese. The remainder of the city represents a variety of ethnicities from all over the world. Hong Kong is very much a multinational city.

Hong Kong has more skyscrapers than anywhere else in the world!

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

 

+ What is YHC's focus?

As a community we are primarily focused on discipling the youth of Hong Kong and reaching out to other nations in Asia. We would love to give you more information on what we are currently doing and our plans for the future; get in contact with us!

+ Where is YHC located in Hong Kong?

Our base is in Shui Tau Tsuen (read our blog post about the village) which is one of the oldest villages in all of Hong Kong and deemed a historic site for tourists to visit on weekends. We consider our presence in this village to be very strategic for the kingdom of God because we worship and serve Him at one of the birthplaces of this city.

+ What is YHC's schedule like?

The general schedule is Monday through Friday, 9:00-6:00 with a one and a half hour lunch break from 1:00-2:30. Worship starts at 9:00 followed by intercessory prayer/Bible study at 10:00. Saturday and Sundays are generally free.

There will be times when you are asked to work on the weekend or outside regular hours due to the variety of ministries we do. Base schedules are usually adjusted when this happens to make sure everyone has enough time to rest.

+ Do I need to have specific skills in order to volunteer?

It doesn't matter whether you're skilled or unskilled; what matters is that you have a heart that's ready to serve!
