Ray Chan
Ray Chan is a rare find, and a great compliment to the Godfactor Board of Directors. He has the rare combination of humility, wisdom and people skills that simply make him a joy to be around. Ray grew up in the suburbs of Chicago. His parents were Chinese immigrants who came to the US for education and work. He was greatly blessed to be raised in a Christian home, surrounded by lifelong friends who knew the Lord. Starting in junior high and with the encouragement of the youth pastor, he began to carefully examine the faith that he had grown up to believe. During this time of awakening, Ray would claim faith in the Lord as his own while daily reading and sifting through the Word. He studied electrical engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and was actively involved with InterVarsity Christian Fellowship while on campus. Upon graduation, he settled in the suburbs of Portland, Oregon, to work in the semiconductor industry. During this time, he married his wife, whom he had met at the university. While in Oregon, Ray was deeply involved with a local Chinese immigrant church serving as a fellowship leader and deacon for the English-speaking congregation. Ray and his wife have two children and currently reside in the northwest suburbs of Chicago. With his free time, Ray enjoys photography, astronomy and playing catch with
his son.

Greg Dempster
Greg Dempster loves life, especially the new life He has in Christ. He's simply one of those people you love to be around - and miss within five minutes of saying goodbye. We're so thankful for his friendship and service on the Godfactor Board. Greg was born and raised in Northern California. His father is a pastor, and as a result he grew up attending church. In fact almost every time the doors were open, his family was there. He surrendered his life to Christ around the age of five, but really had no clue how to access the power he needed from God to navigate life successfully. So, as he began his junior high years he also began a fast and hard search for anything that would give him a sense of well being or lasting satisfaction. The problem was that he never found it; everything he grabbed onto seemed to fall right through his fingers. As hard as he tried, he came up empty time and time again. But several months after graduating high school, on a foggy day in Santa Cruz California, high on LSD, God in his mercy revealed himself to Greg. He showed Greg just how truly bankrupt he was without Him. He showed Greg that all he needed to do was call out to Jesus Christ and He would come and rescue him. That was the beginning of real life change for Greg, and the beginning of an adventure that has produced rest and satisfaction in his soul like nothing that he could have imagined.
