 For years, they experienced that the Lord was with them, so, in 1990, they boldly started a Monthly Worship service on Saturday morning in addition to the Friday night Bible study. Praise the Lord, in September 1, 1991, the Chinese Evangelical Church of Vancouver was formally established and started the Sunday Worship service at an elementary school. At that time, Rev. Isaac Chu was assuming the position of pastor. In the same year, God touched a family to donate a piece of land for the site of the church building. Through God's abundant provision and kindly guidance, the first phase of the church building was completed in the summer of 1995. Though the building was small, it was big enough for Worship service and Children's Sunday school classrooms. As the membership increased, there was a need to expand the facility. By the end of August, 2002, the new expansion was completed. For God has blessed this church not only in the increase in membership and the larger facilities, but also in the quality of Biblical teaching and equipping for the saints. Currently, we have a Sanctuary that is capable of seating 280, a dual purpose chapel and fellowship hall with 75 seats, 11 classrooms and two offices. We pray that God will continue to use this church to carry out His Great Commission.
