Reaching Out | to our world

Missions

Granville Chapel is proud to support Christian workers all over the world including those serving in Pakistan, Afghanistan, Italy, Ukraine, Brazil, China, Montreal, and even Westside Vancouver high schools. The people of Granville Chapel support these friends through financial giving, ongoing encouragement and prayer. The Granville Chapel Missions Committee spearheads this effort. The Missions Committee also strives to raise awareness of missions and encourage short-term mission trips by members of the community.

Dorcas Missionary Fellowship

This group has been meeting monthly since 1930. Its purpose is to pray for and keep in close touch with over 40 missionary women from this area. Dorcas has been supporting some women for almost 75 years. Others are young women who have recently gone into full-time ministry. Dorcas meets in the Lounge at Granville Chapel on the 2nd Friday of every month from 12:30 am to 2:30 pm.
