Theresa was born in Hong Kong and is the “baby”
of a family of six children (She has 4 sisters and 1 brother.) She came to the U.S. in 1971 to study at the
University of San Francisco (USF). It
was there that she met her future husband, Raymond Siu. The two were married in 1974 and moved to
Philadelphia soon thereafter. During their
15 years in Philadelphia, Theresa earned her MBA and worked in computer
programming. Later, Raymond’s work took
them to Irvine, California. Harmonie,
Theresa and Raymond’s daughter, was born in 1990. In 2007, Raymond died suddenly. Theresa accompanied Harmonie to the Bay Area
when Harmonie began her undergraduate studied at UC Berkeley.
Theresa
enjoys crocheting, watching TV (American Pickers is a favorite show), and
reading the Psalms. If she could take a
dream vacation, she would choose to go to Hawaii, somewhere she has never
been! Without hesitation, Theresa is the
most proud of Harmonie. “She is wonderful!”
Theresa beams.
Over
the last year, Theresa has been serving faithfully at the LMUMC Food Pantry
Ministry. She appreciates being able to
use her Cantonese to serve others. Theresa
has also become a part of the scripture reader rotation and most recently,
volunteered to become an usher/greeter!
We
welcome Theresa Siu as a part of this faith community!
Please
share a warm word of welcome with Theresa
during
Hospitality.
