We exist to connect people to Jesus and each other
Grounded in the rich theological tradition of the Christian faith and in affiliation with the Melchizedek Ministries Foundation, the Vancouver Tamil Christian Assembly’s mission is guided by a deep understanding of God’s word. At the core of our mission is the Great Commission as expressed in Matthew 28:19-20. We strive to make disciples of all people, baptizing them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything Christ has commanded us.
In line with Paul’s epistle to the Ephesians (Ephesians 4:11-13), we commit to the maturation of the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ. Our goal is to reach unity in the faith and knowledge of the Son of God, becoming mature and attaining the full stature of Christ. Furthermore, inspired by Paul’s metaphor of the Church as the ‘body of Christ’ (1 Corinthians 12:27), we aim to promote the interdependence, mutual love, and harmonious functioning of all parts of our community, each member playing a unique and vital role.
Driven by the call in Micah 6:8, we are committed to acting justly, loving mercy, and walking humbly with our God. We believe in extending Christ’s love to the vulnerable, echoing His heart for social justice and care for the marginalized. Our mission, steeped in these biblical precepts, steers our journey as we seek to reflect God’s glory and demonstrate His love in a world in desperate need of His truth.
Beliefs
Here, you'll find a brief outline of our core beliefs - the fundamental truths that guide every facet of our worship, fellowship, and service. These beliefs aren't merely doctrines but profound expressions of our living faith, inspired by Scripture and echoed in every hymn we sing, every sermon we share, and every prayer we lift up.
Gatherings
Our Sunday gatherings are a cornerstone of our spiritual journey. As Hebrews 10:24-25 advises, "And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another." These gatherings provide a sacred space for communal worship, prayer, and the study of God's Word.
Connect
Reach out and 'Connect with Us'. We're more than a church - we're a community, a family, a mosaic of individuals united in faith. Together, we navigate the path towards a deeper understanding of God's love.
