Church Fair 2024

Who We Are

The Tamil Christian Church of Canada (TCCC) is a community-based Wesleyan Methodist church located in Toronto, Canada. We are a Canadian Christian registered charity (incorporated in 1986). Our 250+ active member families consist mostly of first or second generation Canadians of South Asian descent (mainly Sri Lanka and India).

Our Senior Pastor is Rev. Dr. Albert Jebanesan and Youth Pastor is Joshua Stephens. They are both supported by our Joint Board & Council that consists of lay leaders and the prayers of our entire Church family.

Our Purpose and Fundraiser Objective

Our vision is Towards a Christ Centered Community and mission is to empower all generations to pursue a life-long relationship with Jesus Christ, and through our witness make disciples and serve those in need in our community. In our quest to serve those in need in the global community, we have partnered with a diverse set of organizations over many years, especially in Sri Lanka and India.

One of our Fundraiser objectives is to engage with direct efforts on our local community in the Greater Toronto Area, Canada. We appreciate that Outreach Ministry is essential in Toronto, especially with new and existing Canadian immigrants who are attempting to settle down in Canada.

Our additional objective is for our Church Building Fund, so that we can continue to develop our ministries within and beyond our current church walls.

What We Have Done

Over the years, we have been fortunate to support humanitarian and project needs locally and internationally, through Local Non-Governmental Organizations (NGO) where help was a desperate necessity.

International Aid / Support (few highlights partnering with local NGOs):

Tsunami Relief: $60,000

  • International Displaced People / Refugees: $12,000
  • Hope4Child Mission Relief: $20,000 (supporting 18 kids in Sri Lanka)
  • Methodist Church: $7,000 (income generating program)
  • Shalom Project: $62,000 (Empowering War Widows and their Kids, Sri Lanka)
  • Church Building in India: $24,000 (through Vishwa Vani in India)
  • Missionaries and Kids Support: $5,000 per year (through Vishwa Vani in India)
  • YGRO: $50,000 (Phase 1 - 3 – Dairy Empowerment Program)

We have also provided financial support through the Canadian Red Cross and World Vision Canada for victims of natural disasters in many countries.

Our governance model does not consist merely of disbursement of mission funds. We are dedicated to have a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) that is signed by both parties with a commitment of periodic updates from NGOs and engagement with their mission team to demonstrate the true essence of partnership.

These projects have only been possible through the sacrificial support of our members and you, our local community. Canadian local businesses and well-wishers – like you, came forward to partner with in these efforts. We appreciate your support and sincerely hope that you will continue to do so this year as well.
