Our First Family
Friend,
Thank you for exploring our page. As you navigate this site you will get a better understanding of who we are within the body of Christ.
​
A very short FYI:
​
Scarborough Church of God is a Pentecostal affiliate of the Church of God. Our Head office is in Tennessee, United States of America. With a membership of just over 7 million, we are one of 36,000 churches operating in over 178 countries. Within Canada, we are one of 148 churches and within Ontario we are one of 73 churches.
We are modest in our attire to Sunday services. During weekday sessions such as Bible studies, Youth Fellowship, Choir practices etc., our attire is a little more casual. If you have questions regarding appropriate attire you may call our church office.

In the mean time, keep exploring to learn more about us.

Dr. Basil A. Miller is a visionary. A dance ministry was birthed under his ministry back in April1997 and led by Sis. Stacey-Ann Vassell. The dance group was known as the Symphonic Dancers, a name created by Sis. Carol Blake.
​
Stacey-Ann Vassell continued in that path as artistic director at the Elite Dance and Company on October 4, 2000 and EDIFY [Elite Dance Initiative for Youth] on March 25, 2014. A natural progression led to the creation of Praise Him Dance Festival which is celebrated annually since 2015 to showcase dance ministries from various denominations.
​
Since 2001, the Basil A. Miller Award of Excellence, our highest dance honour is given to our top dance student. In 2013 we added the Isaiah Parkinson Award of Perseverance which is given to the student who despite challenges remained committed while having a positive outlook toward dance just like the late Bishop Isaiah Parkinson.
