Shu-chun "Charity" Liu

Shu-chun "Charity" Liu, age 54, passed away peacefully on the evening of March 18th, 2025, surrounded by loved ones. She was born on August 1st, 1970 in Taichung, Taiwan to Chi-wu Liu and Hsiu-lien Liu Chang.

Charity lived a life defined by kindness, selflessness, and unwavering faith. She found her greatest joy in singing praise and worship, dedicating her heart to both her family and church community. She earned a degree in International Trade from Chung Yuan Christian University (1992) in Taiwan before moving to the United States, where she obtained a Master’s in Accounting from the University of Missouri - Kansas City (1997). She devoted 27 years of service to the City of Kansas City, MO before retiring in November 2024.

In 1989, Charity met the love of her life, Patrick, and they married in 1998. Together, they built a beautiful life in Kansas City, MO, filling their home with love, laughter, and faith alongside their three children— Grace, Jessica, and Joshua. Charity’s deep devotion extended beyond her family to Emmanuel Chinese Baptist Church, where she found her spiritual home and served joyfully on the worship team.

A service to celebrate Charity’s life will be held on Saturday, April 5th at Emmanuel Chinese Baptist Church and via livestream at 10am. Though she faced cancer with strength and bravery, she is now at peace, free from pain, and in eternal life with our Heavenly Father. Charity is deeply missed but will live on in the hearts of her family and those who knew her.

In lieu of flowers, contributions are suggested to Emmanuel Chinese Baptist Church.
