Rev. Dr. Kenneth Foo is the Director for Church Life and Leadership with Canadian Baptists of Ontario and Quebec. Yes, the title is way too long. No, it does not fit on merch. After years of pastoring Chinese Baptist churches across the GTA (and sitting through an unreal number of meetings that somehow always had food), Ken now spends his time hyping pastors, helping churches level up, and asking big, real questions about faith, culture, and leadership in a world that never slows down.

Ken is big on servant leadership, finding your calling, and following Jesus in ways that actually make sense today. He loves working with young leaders and will confidently tell you that “the intersection of faith and culture” is not a traffic jam on Highway 401, even though it absolutely sounds like one.

When he’s not doing ministry things, Ken is a huge movie nerd, book lover, comic book fan, and a big theatre kid at heart who loves live performances. He also loves tattoos and is always down to talk about the meaning behind them (seriously, just ask). Ken lives in Mississauga with his wife Ann, their three daughters, his parents, and their dog, Seven (yes, there’s a story). When he’s not leading, teaching, reading, watching movies, going to the theatre, or planning his next tattoo, you’ll probably find him lifting weights, paddle boarding, or pretending that balancing family, faith, leadership, and pop culture totally counts as cardio.

Hannah was born and raised in Canada. Growing up with immigrant parents from Hong Kong gave her a rich perspective on both eastern and western culture. She spent 15 years living in Asia as a tent-making missionary, first working in advertising and then starting her own business. Now back in Toronto, she helps build small businesses, especially ones that want to include Christian values. She’s passionate about people, their stories, and how Christ can be an active part of the adventure. She’s the author of Wherever You Go: A Conversation About Life, Faith, and Courage. She enjoys rock climbing and witty one-liners.

Jaime Ting was born and raised in Mississauga. He attended TC 10 years ago but opposed Christianity and ran from God for many years. However, in April 2022, he had a radical encounter with God sitting by a river as he contemplated ending his life. From then on, he completely surrendered his life to Jesus, willing to be sent everywhere in His name. This led to a prayer journey in Japan, in July 2024, where God confirmed his calling to start and work on Barak Project, an online Christian ministry focused on creating content that inspires others towards living radically and missionally for Jesus.

He also holds a Bachelor of Kinesiology and is studying for his Master of Teaching at the University of Toronto. While his heart is with Barak Project, he continues to learn what it means to trust God with his future in a career he is not particularly passionate about. Each week, he also leads a young adults group and serves the youth at his church. In his free time, he enjoys working out, reading, drawing, skateboarding, exploring nature, and hanging out with friends.
