Below are our weekly announcements. Our hope is that announcements are not just for your information, but also for your participation.
In-person Worship
Due to government restrictions, space will be limited and everyone will be required to pre-register EVERY WEEK. The link for pre-registration will be posted online each week by Monday midnight for the next Sunday.
Click here to register for in-person worship service.
Registration will be first-come-first-served. If you require help to register, contact the church office ([email protected] or 416-733-8088).
We ask that you self-screen prior to coming in person. View this presentation that outlines the physical preparation of the church building and safety protocols.
Please arrive by 9:30 AM so that you will have time to complete the screening and service can start on time at 9:45 AM. If you are unable to attend in-person worship for the day you have registered, please contact the church office as soon as possible to cancel your registration.

Online Sharing and Prayer – Sunday at 11:00AM
During this season, many are unable to gather for in-person worship. As a result, they feel lonely and disconnected from the rest of the faith community.
We encourage you to join us for a time of sharing and prayer after our live-stream so you can connect with and support others who are worshipping online.

- Old Testament Survey (Starting Sep 20)

Jesus Network Christmas Gift Basket Outreach
Pastor Obed, who serves with the Jesus Network, is one of the missionaries supported by NTCBC and is our missionary of the month for November. Our hope is to not only support our missionaries with prayer and through giving, but also by partnering with them in ministry.
One of the ways we can partner with Pastor Obed is through the Christmas Gift Basket Outreach, where we prepare and deliver 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 feel welcome and safe.
There are many ways you can be a partner in this ministry:
- Give
- Contribute stationary supplies for the children (e.g. notebooks, pencils, pens, etc.)
- Give financially
- Pack gift baskets on Saturday, December 4
- Deliver gift baskets (delivery dates: December 5-19).
- If you choose to partner in this way, we ask that you attend a training session on Saturday, November 27.
- Learn about the ministry by attending a sharing session on Wednesday, November 24

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.

Membership Affirmation
It comes to the church attention that there are a handful of members who have missed the three months of membership affirmation period accidentally. The church want to include them as part of the spiritual family and so would extend the membership affirmation period till the end of November. Please submit your membership affirmation request by the following link as soon as possible.
