"New York Chinese Baptist Church (NYCBC) is a bilingual Baptist church, dedicated to spreading the good news of Jesus Christ. Located in the heart of New York City, NYCBC has been serving the Chinatown community for over 60 years. To fully become the church of God, New York Chinese Baptist Church is motivated by the great COMMANDMENT, obeying the great COMMISSION, empowered by the great COMMUNION, and refreshed by the great COMMUNITY.
NYCBC consists of two congregations: the Chinese Ministry and the English Ministry. Our long history in Chinatown has allowed us to reach out to the Chinese speaking community and the English community as well. Though we focus on the Asian community, we love all of God's people and welcome all to our church.
The Beginning
In 1954, Rev. S.C. Chiu founded Chinese Baptist Mission located in Chinatown, New York. He predominately desired to minister to Chinese immigrants in New York City.
In the mid 1970's, an English fellowship was formed due to the growing ABC population from the growth of "church babies." In 1980, Rev. Wong Chung had a vision to begin an English Ministry. It was then that the English worship service began. Since the formation of the English Ministry, we have seen how God has been working in our congregation. To best chart this process, we have summarized the development of the English congregation by the various pastors who have been with NYCBC."
