简介

Rev Dr Maggie Low is an ordained minister of the Presbyterian Church of Singapore (PCS). She has a law degree from the National University of Singapore and served as a Varsity Christian Fellowship staff worker with the Fellowship of Evangelical Students (FES) where she helped to establish their missions training programme. She was also a pastor at Ang Mo Kio Presbyterian Church (AMKPC) for 11 years, during which she built up the Chaplaincy of Presbyterian High School. She led the Church for 8 of those years and was ordained as the lead pastor in 2001.

With the endorsement of PCS, Dr Low joined the faculty of Trinity Theological College as an Old Testament lecturer. She obtained her Th.M. from Princeton Theological Seminary and her PhD from Union Theological Seminary-Presbyterian School of Christian Education, Richmond, Virginia.

Dr Low often preaches at churches of all denominations. She has conducted courses on the Psalms and Ecclesiastes in various conferences, including the Living Word Conference organised by the Bible Society of Singapore and the Anglican Diocese. As a Presbyterian minister of the PCS, she serves on the Theological Review and Response Committee of the Synod.

Maggie is married to David Low, a dyslexia specialist, and they have two children – Micah, a young adult, and Melissa, a teenager. Her interests include reading, musicals, and movies.
