SENIOR MANAGEMENT

Senior Pastor Pacer Tan

As a pastor’s son, Pastor Pacer grew up with our church. At the age of 24 years old, he received the call of God to the ministry. He has served in a wide array of ministries that include musician, worship leading, youth and preaching.

Known for his thought-provoking preaching, he aspires to challenge believers to passionately follow Jesus. As a visionary, he is not easily fazed by the challenges he faces in life and ministry. They only propel his excitement to the endless possibilities people of God can achieve together in Kingdom building. He desires Lighthouse to be a light that reaches our nations and beyond with the gospel of Christ. Besides pastoring, he is also an accomplished worship leader and musician. He enjoys relaxing over a cup of coffee, great movies and basketball.

Pastor Pacer and Katherine are parents to 2 beautiful children, Racer and Rainbow.

MEMBERS

Katherine supports the SPO with strategic inputs and provides advice on critical matters for the church. As a change agent at heart, she strives “to make things better for those who come and to part when things are better than before she found them”. That led her to pursue her former careers as a social worker and polytechnic lecturer. She has also served in the children and youth ministries for many years. She desires to see the lives of children and youth touched and transformed by the power of the Holy Spirit. In her current season, she is dedicated to caring for her family and raising her children.
