TCC is excited to be part of missions around the world. We believe that by partnering with those that train, send, and impact a local community we are able to advance the Kingdom of God beyond what we could do on our own. In addition to supporting local ministries and international organizations, TCC is supporting missionaries in Brazil, Japan, Nigeria, and Bolivia. We have a heart to make a difference locally and globally through assisting those with physical needs as well as spiritual needs.

Alberta Baptist Association
Churches in the North American Baptist Conference gather together in local Associations. This association is driven by a Kingdom perspective which acknowledges and celebrates the fact that making disciples is a responsibility that goes far beyond the activities of our local church. We believe that faithfulness to Christ's commission means that helping a sister church make disciples is part of carrying out Christ's commission at TCC.
