Amy Tjoa serves as the Knoxville area committee chair, and while she’s only been in East Tennessee for ten years, she became acquainted with the ministry of CEF back in 2006 while living in Springfield, MO. Her church there was starting a Good News Club, and Amy knew God was calling her to help. When she and her husband Hong moved to East Tennessee in 2011, she approached her new church pastor about starting a GNC at a nearby elementary school in Dandridge. He was in full support. In June, 2015, she was asked to serve on the local committee, and in 2018, she stepped into the role of chairperson of that committee. Her passionate caring for children and sharing with them the Good News of the Gospel message of Jesus is a real asset to our community and the entire CEF organization.
