Chantry Legacy Continues – Free Grace Baptist Church of Chilliwack, B.C. Resigns From ARBCA

By | January 21, 2019

In the weekly newsletter dated January 8, 2019, ARBCA asked for prayer for its church plants and their respective sponsoring churches.

In a letter dated January 16, 2019, Free Grace Baptist Church of Chilliwack, B.C. informed ARBCA they were resigning from ARBCA and that their church plant in Surrey, B.C. would not be pursuing membership in ARBCA.

I have included documents showing that in 2013 there were 80 churches who were ARBCA members and as of today, that number is down to 53. Included in this 53 is Christ Reformed Baptist Church of Hales Corners, WI.  This was the church pastored by Thomas Chantry, now a convicted felon. The church building was sold in December 2018 and I am told that the handful of members still remaining are meeting in a school.
