Grace Wong Kwan Hing, Lorretta Chow Mei Yan, Sherman Chung Shu Man, Auyeung Ching (MC Jin) and director Jaeson Ma Ching Yuen two nights ago attended the gospel film 1040 premiere in Ma Wan's Noah's Ark. Wong Kwan Hing expressed that she became a Christian a year ago, on the day Pastor Ma shot the documentary in church. "Artists sometimes have to feel enormous pressure. Ko Ho Ching and Chow Ka Wai kept praying for me and gave me an understanding of Christianity." Wong Kwan Hing said that true friends were hard to find in show business but Christianity made her find the true value. She said, "Now I am not blindly pursuing material. Sometimes in the face of pressure I might have 5 minutes of relaxation with a friend's comforting, but after that I still have to truly resolve the issue. After believing in God, my soul is comforted."

Chung Shu Man said that she has been a Christian since childhood, but began to have deeper understanding after joining show business. She has begun to take more time to go to church. She said, "In church we have no class difference. Yumiko (Cheng Hei Yi), Steven (Cheung Chi Hung) and I later will record a gospel record. We will perform some famous songs." Chung Shu Man said that her impression in the company was clear cut as her co-workers were afraid of her constantly preaching. Chung Shu Man said, "Always telling co-workers how to be Christian isn't necessarily convincing, being a good role model is the most important."
