Peace Chinese Mennonite Church (Richmond, British Columbia, Canada)
Beginning as an outreach by Peace Mennonite Church, Richmond, BC, Jack and Rose To founded Peace Chinese Mennonite Church in 1987. The congregation received initial assistance from Vancouver Chinese and Chinese Grace Mennonite Church, although financial sustenance was made possible through a collaborative effort by the Mission/Service Committee of Peace Mennonite and Call to Kingdom Commitments, a special renewal effort of the General Conference Mennonite Church.
Peace Chinese Mennonite Church is affiliated with Mennonite Church British Columbia and Mennonite Church Canada and meets in the facilities of Peace Mennonite Church. The language of worship is Chinese although some English is used as well.
