English Announcements

1. Thank you
Thank you once again to Rev. Sam for preaching God’s Word to our house today and starting off our new series on the book of James.

2. Table Talk
Table Talk begins today at 11:00 AM. Table Talk is a time to dive deeper into the sermon and share personal reflections in a small group setting.
See below for group details and locations:
– Hosanna (<18): Sunday School with Justin
– Young Adults (18–30): White House kitchen
– All other groups: White House main floor

3. Attic Clean-up
FM will be conducting an attic clean-up in May to help reclaim valuable space, improve organization, and ensure the area remains safe and accessible for future use. A well- maintained attic allows us to better support current and upcoming ministry needs rather than storing items that may no longer be necessary.
We ask that all ministries with items stored in the attic take some time over the next few weeks to review their belongings and determine what can be removed. For any items you wish to keep, please gather them together in one designated location and send a photo to Spencer for FM’s records by April 30. Any items not identified by the deadline will be responsibly disposed of at FM’s discretion.

4. EB Announcement
After much prayer and discernment, God is calling Rev. Ken Cheng to relocate with his family back to Hong Kong in August, and Rev Ken will conclude his ministry at TJCAC after Sunday, July 5, 2026. The Elder Board thanks God for Pastor Ken’s faithful service in the Cantonese Ministry over the past three years. We invite brothers and sisters to join in prayer for:
1. God to prepare a suitable pastor for the Cantonese Ministry;
2. A smooth and steady transition during this interim period; and
3. God’s protection and guidance over Pastor Ken’s relocation from Canada back to Hong Kong.
