OCBC’s English congregation currently has more than 60 members, with around 80 people attending the English Sunday service each week. Working together with our Chinese congregation as one body (totalling 202 members) to advance our mission to Mandarin-speaking immigrants as well as to Canadians from all cultural backgrounds, our English congregation is a diverse, multigenerational and multicultural group of people, including a large number of university students and a growing number of young families.

We take the Bible as our only infallible and authoritative guide to belief and conduct. Our services are centred around the preaching of the Word, with praise and worship set as a response to God’s revelation to us. The English congregation is presently accustomed to expository preaching. OCBC is a member of the Evangelical Free Church of Canada (EFCC).
