home / news / we love our communities of faith
Date 18 Dec, 2025
This fall, we had the pleasure of visiting some of our Communities of Faith congregations.
Communities of Faith have been vital supporters of our frontline work since the very beginning, responding to the call for justice and healing in the community.
When FIRST UNITED initially started out as a small congregation 140 years ago, we partnered with other churches back then, and throughout the decades, to serve the most vulnerable people in our community.
Thank you to every congregation that has welcomed us with open arms.
We’re grateful for your support of our mission and vision. Thank you for helping carry out the work we’ve been called to do together. We continue to be inspired by your heart and action to bring dignity, belonging and justice to our neighbours in the Downtown Eastside.
Here are just a few photos from our visits this fall:
