Greek Evangelical Christian Mennonite Brethren Church (Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada)
The Greek Evangelical Christian Mennonite Brethren Church began services in 1977. George S. Anastasiades is considered the founding leader of the group. The congregation originated through outreach by Vancouver MB churches and joined the British Columbia Conference of Mennonite Brethren Churches in 1985. The language of worship was Greek.
The Greek Evangelical congregation withdrew from the BC MB Conference in 1989 in order to affiliate with a Canadian Greek fellowship of churches.
The congregation met in the facilities of Culloden Mennonite Brethren Church at 6060 Culloden Street, Vancouver, BC.
