The Christian Education Department is pleased to offer the Richard L. Hopkins Memorial Library as a resource that places words in the hands and hearts of TCBC members and attenders of all ages. Since 1996, the Library's collection has steadily grown in quantity and quality so that it now offers over 3,000 items to the congregation. Books, DVDs, CDs, and even a few old cassettes currently occupy the shelves. You can find a few books that are over 100 years old, as well as some others that were recently penned by authors within the TCBC family. The variety of titles and material types allows the Library to offer something for everyone - from Bible study resources to novels, books on Christian topics and a children’s collection.

The Library is located in the northwest corner of the basement, just off the Fellowship Hall. It is open and staffed with volunteers every Sunday morning before and after the morning services. Make the TCBC Library part of your Sunday morning routine.
