February 04, 2024
Below are our weekly announcements. Our hope is that announcements are not just for your information, but also for your participation.
English Ministry Town Hall – Feb 4, 11:15AM
Our theme for 2024 is Strive for a 3rd Generation. We made a decision to continue our theme from 2024 because we realize that while we have made great strides in building a culture of disciple-making, there is still much to work on.
Please join our Town Hall to hear how God has been working at NTCBC and how you can partner with us to make disciples who make disciples.
Sunday School: Acts & Paul’s Letters – Feb 11, 11:15 AM
We invite you to join our Sunday School Class which runs every Sunday from February to April. The purpose of Sunday School is to equip you to grow as a Bible Reader and a Bible Teacher. In our upcoming course, we will be studying Paul’s letters within the historical and literary context of Acts. By the end of the course, you will know why Paul wrote what he wrote, and how that impacts how you read and apply these books of the Bible.
Discover Class – Feb 18, 11:15 AM
Our Discover Class is a 1-hour class that introduces you to our faith community – our beliefs and how we live out the Great Commission. It is also the first step you will take if you want to be a part of a Small Group Community.

Online Giving/Tithing
Offering is a privilege and responsibility for members. Our encouragement is for each member to prayerfully seek God’s guidance for how they ought to be giving in this season. All offering goes towards funding ministries locally and globally.
We encourage the congregation to apply for a personal offering number to allow efficient and accurate recording of offering information. We encourage the congregation to offer online through e-transfer or online banking. If you choose to give offering via cheque, we ask that you write the church’s full name “North Toronto Chinese Baptist Church”. The banks no longer accept the short form NTCBC as a valid payee.
For more details on online giving, including how to add NTCBC as an ‘online bill payee’, click here.
