Pastor of Youth

5 months ago


New Westminster, Canada Baptist General Conference of Canada Full time

**OUR STORY**:
Living Hope started 2003 with the simple goal of reaching new immigrants in the city of Vancouver. God used inexperienced and brand new believers to plant a church in a city which was called by many to be the "graveyard of churches". Looking over the years of our ministry, God used Living Hope to mother three local churches and partnered in planting six churches in the Philippines. We also had the privilege of serving the First Nation right in their own community for four years and brought alongside other churches to continue the work. We still consider our self young and see that our best ministry is ahead of us.
