Associate Director of TIM Centre, Rev. Dr. Timothy Tang was born in Toronto where he now lives with his wife Joanne, who is a high school teacher in the York Board of Education. They have two sons and a daughter, Tobin Wesley, Mathis Jiles, and Breylin Emmanuelle, who are 11, 9, and 5 years old respectively.

Pastor Tim has been the English pastor at the East Toronto Chinese Baptist Church where he has been ministering for 15 years. After studying at Upper Canada College, he went on to the University of Waterloo where he completed his B.Sc. in Kinesiology.

Though Tim planned a career in health care, God called him to full time ministry during a short-term missions trip to Asia in 1996, after which he finished his M.Div. in Youth and Family Ministry at Tyndale Seminary.

Since that time, Tim has been involved with John424, a worship ministry; the Tribe of Issachar, a leadership training ministry; and completed a 2-year program called Arrow Leadership. Tim has also recently completed a Doctor of Ministry in Leadership at Gordon-Conwell Seminary.
