Below are our weekly announcements. Our hope is that announcements are not just for your information, but also for your participation.
Sunday School: The Gospel of Luke – Nov 12, 11:15AM
If you want to hear from God, you should aspire to read the Bible academically and devotionally. In our Sunday Schoolclass, we will be equipping you with tools so that you will be able to read this Gospel well. We hope that you will join us in studying God’s Word together.
Packing Christmas Baskets – Dec 1, 7:30 PM
Pastor Obed, who serves with the Jesus Network, is one of the missionaries supported by NTCBC. During the Christmas season, NTCBC is invited to join Pastor Obed in preparing and delivering Christmas gift baskets to welcome Afghan families who reside in the GTA. This is an opportunity for us to meet with Afghan families and share the gospel. Our hope is that the families receiving the baskets will hear and feel Jesus’; love through us.
This year, we invite you and your family to participate in a sharing session and pack a gift basket on Friday, December 1st at 7:30 PM.

Have you ever thought of the questions: “Who am I?” “Why am I here?” “What’s my purpose in life?”

Christmas Service – Dec 23, 9:45 AM
Christmas is a season where we celebrate God sending His Son to bring new life and hope, and to make all things new. We invite you to join our Christmas service as we celebrate our hope in God through singing carols, hearing stories, and studying the Bible together.
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.
