Announcements

Facilities and Venue Booking – We are switching to use the Church Center App for church-related facility booking requests. Please submit your request using this link.

All congregation bookings for personal use will be considered a rental and subject to rental fees. For ministry bookings, please clearly indicate the supervising pastor who provides direction and nurturing of this ministry. Please contact your lead pastor if you have any questions concerning the supervising pastor of a ministry.

A reminder to please park in the designated lots (highlighted in purple) to avoid having your car towed by the neighbouring buildings. Please refer to the diagram below.

Due to the snow, the Coptic Church has graciously allowed us to use their parking lot for Sunday mornings. Please refer to the diagram below for the designated lot to park.

A reminder to please complete your registration for the upcoming Sports Ministry events ahead of time. Secure your spot before the event date!

Administration Notice (Roofing Works and HVAC Unit Replacement Project)

Please be informed that the project will commence soon and will be carried out in different zones. As the Gym and parts of the Sanctuary do not have suspended ceilings, construction work in these areas will generate dust and noise, making them unsuitable for activities during this period.
Due to the project’s nature and unpredictable weather, we may give less than a week’s notice for venue usage suspension. We appreciate your attention to this matter and apologize for any inconvenience caused.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Harry (facilities@tccc.ca).

Administration Department

Starting in April, the Administration Department will clean out the lost and found collection box in the first week of each month to reduce hygiene issues caused by the long-term accumulation of unclaimed clothing and various items.

Prayer

Please pray for the people serving at Teens Conference this month and for the youths attending. May they experience and encounter God’s love and faithfulness during this time.

Mandarin Congregation

Pray for God’s guidance and wisdom in the planning of the May 16th–18th Retreat, and for His grace and work in the hearts of those preparing for baptism and church membership, that they would be rooted in faith and ready to take this next step in following Christ.

Cantonese Congregation

Pray that during the Lent season, the Holy Spirit would guide and illuminate our hearts, renewing our spiritual lives, and pray also for the Cantonese pastoral team—that the Lord would grant strength and resilience to our pastors, staff, and their families, caring for them physically, emotionally, and spiritually—while asking that God’s Word would continue to cultivate and grow the spiritual lives of our brothers and sisters through the Stream of Life sermon-based groups.

105 Gibson

We thank You for moving many volunteers to faithfully serve in different roles at the 105 Gibson Centre. Through their love and actions, people in the community are able to experience care and support.
Lord, please continue to watch over every volunteer in body, mind, and spirit, and grant them strength and joy in serving. We also pray that You will move more people to see the needs in the community, especially in autism services and the upcoming walkathon, and respond with willing hearts.
May we serve together in unity and love, bringing glory to Your name. Amen.

Upcoming Events

The English Congregational Retreat will take place May 16–18 at Muskoka Bible Centre (8 Pioneer Ave, Huntsville, ON). This retreat is for all ages in our English congregation and will be a special time to grow closer to God and strengthen our fellowship as a church family.
This year’s theme is “He must increase, but I must decrease” (John 3:30), with Rev. Kelly Tam serving as our speaker. The weekend will include worship, biblical teaching, and time for fellowship together.
Registration fees are $320 for adults (13+), $120 for youth (7–12), and free for children ages 0–6.
Registration will be reopened until March 22nd on a first-come, first-served basis. Spaces are limited, and registration may close early if all spots are filled.
Please register through the Church Center App.

Join us at our third The Gathering Table (TGT) on March 25th! We know it can be hard to really get to know one another after Sunday service — so this dinner is intentionally created for meaningful conversation, shared laughter, and a space to slow down and deepen connections within our English congregation. You’re also always welcome to bring a friend!
We’re looking for volunteers! You can indicate your interest in volunteering when you register for the event. If you have any questions, please contact communications@tccc.ca

Our Easter Remembrance Service will take place at TCCC on April 2nd at 7:00 PM in the Sanctuary.

Our Membership Class will take place on April 19th. Membership is intended for baptized believers who wish to take the next step in connecting with TCCC. If you are interested in becoming a member, please fill out the form below.

ACEM News

Jen (Israel, OM Israel)
Please pray for Jen, who was at the airport on February 28th, ready to return to Israel after her home assignment, but her flight was cancelled due to the outbreak of the Iran war, and repeated attempts to rebook have also been cancelled; may God open the way for her to return to the Land. Please also pray for the safety of her ministry partners in Israel.

Ying Zao Zhang (Brazil, GO International)
Please pray for Mr. Zhang’s personal situation: he had originally planned to visit Canada this year, but his visa application was rejected due to concerns that he has insufficient ties to Brazil and therefore poses a risk of overstaying in Canada. He obeys God’s arrangement and asks for prayer that the Lord will guide his future path and pastoral ministry, and bless his follow-up work with new believers.
Please also pray for the ministry of Grace Church in Curitiba, Brazil. We thank God that the brothers and sisters remain enthusiastic in serving; may the Lord lead the reorganization of church ministries and the training of new hymn worship, so that both the church and the congregation may grow together.
