By the Gracious Hand of God upon TCA, God has called various Individuals to work at TCA or to give generously to the ministry. TCA has expanded its capacity to educate 200 + students including a music school and special needs school by partnering with Pathways to success.

By partnering with In His Presence Christian Church, we are extending our outreach to the poor to fulfill the great commission of making disciples Matt 28:18-20 and to serve the poor Gal 2:20.
