At AACC, we believe we stand on the shoulders of the giants who paved the way for us. At each conference, we honor a few of those trailblazers who helped carve out a path for the rest of us to walk down. Often times being one of the first in their communities, cities, organizations, and fields, these are the people who have made a difference as Asian American Christians for the whole of our communities and the church more broadly.

The people featured are those we celebrate as “living legends.” They are leaders whose decades of faithful service have helped shape the identity, discipleship, and witness of AAPI Christians. We thank them for their life and ministry for the sake of the gospel and the Kingdom of God.
