Sunday School: Acts & Paul\u2019s Letters \u2013 Apr 7, 11:15 AM<\/h3>\t\t\t

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\u2019s 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.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Online Giving\/Tithing<\/h3>\t\t\t

Offering is a privilege and responsibility for members. Our encouragement is for each member to prayerfully seek God\u2019s guidance for how they ought to be giving in this season. All offering goes towards funding ministries locally and globally.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

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.<\/span><\/p>\n

2023 tax receipts have been mailed out.\u00a0 If you do not receive the tax receipts by March 1, please email the Finance Department at finance@ntcbc.ca or contact our Office Administrator, Wilman Lai, at 416-733-8088 ext 210.<\/span><\/p>\n

For more details on online giving, including how to add NTCBC as an ‘online bill payee’,\u00a0 click here.<\/u><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
