Administrative history
First United Mennonite Church in Vancouver, B.C. traces it beginning to services that began in 1935 under the leadership of Elder Jacob H. Janzen. The church was formally organized in 1937 with 11 charter members and they also purchased their first meeting house in 1937. In the summer of 1955, their first meeting house located on 49th Avenue was sold, and the congregation purchased a larger church building at 659 East 52nd Avenue.
