English Congregation |  Mandarin  |  Cantonese  |

Hello, and welcome to the online home of the English Language Congregation of Chinese Grace Bible Church. As Teaching Pastor at CGBC, I'm glad you've taken a moment to explore our ministries online! Our fellowship represents just one of three congregations in three languages joining as one church here at CGBC. As one gathered family of Christ-Followers, we are all seeking to communicate God's love both in our city and across the world!

The English Language Congregation of CGBC is passionately committed to declaring the good news of the Gospel through redemptive relationships with others, deepening the lives of the Christ-Followers in our midst through in-depth Bible teaching and solid relationships, and demonstrating our heartfelt love for our Lord through dynamic prayer and worship experiences. If these passions match yours, I invite you to explore a relationship with our church family by visiting one of the many ministry events you'll find listed on this website. As you do, you'll discover ministry distinctions like these:

  • Dynamic, verse-by- verse Biblical teaching designed to help people at all stages of Christian growth to understand the meaning of the Bible. Our goal on Sunday mornings is to unfold the meaning of the Bible and apply it to our lives with a deep understanding of its promises and commands.
  • Contemporary, enjoyable, yet deeply Biblical worship services. We have a conviction that worship sourced in the truths of the Bible and delivered by skillful leaders always lifts the soul of the worshiper into a deeper encounter with Him.
  • Strong, capably staffed ministries to children of all ages, junior high, high school, and college students, singles and families at all stages of life.
  • Life-changing short-term missions experiences to multiple locations around the globe. These trips are designed to allow believers at all levels of knowledge to experience what it's like to live out the Gospel and offer the Good News to hungry hearts around the world.
  • Caring and committed small group communities. These are great places where you can deepen the relationships you begin on a Sunday morning and receive the support you'll need to live out the Christian life all week long.
  • A growing experience of Worship Based Prayer that makes it possible for the powerful promises of the Scriptures to be unleashed in lives, families and ministries as we seek God's presence together.

All of these distinctions blend together to make CGBC a vibrant group of Christ-Followers, all seeking to make a difference in the world, build authentic relationships with one another, and understand God's Word more deeply. We would love for you to join us in this wonderful journey!

And remember, while it may appear that CGBC's English Language Congregation is made up primarily of Chinese-American families, we are seeing God call people from many cultures to join our family and to discover Him. So, regardless of your cultural background, or whether you're newly married or a single professional, ready to retire or just getting out of the blocks as a college student, we welcome your presence here with us. If your desire is to seek to know Jesus more deeply, then you've got everything in common with us that you'll need!

Warmly in Him,

Pastor Joe Pursch
Teaching Pastor
