Faith Mennonite Brethren Church (Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada)
Faith Mennonite Brethren (MB) Church was located in Vancouver, British Columbia. The congregation began services in 1984 as an English language congregation for persons of Chinese descent and joined the British Columbia Conference of Mennonite Brethren Churches in 1984. The core group consisted of young people from the Pacific Grace Chinese congregation who wished to worship in English and began meeting on their own. People from other cultural backgrounds attended as well. John Schmidt was the first pastor of the congregation.
Faith MB dissolved in 1990-91.
