The Parish of St. Chad's Anglican Church of the Diocese of New Westminster was begun in 1946 in the Arbutus Ridge area of Vancouver and was incorporated on May 12, 1949. A church was opened in 1955. St. Chad's functions included providing parochial support to the Parish, providing a place for worship, and supporting community developments within the community at large. The Church formed from the existing parishes of St. Mary's, St. Phillips, St. Marks and Holy Trinity. The congregation originally met at a store-front at 16th avenue and Macdonald street and moved into their new parish premises in the summer of 1948. The Church's major functional bodies included the Vestry, the Board of Trustees and the Church Committee. The Vestry provided over-all direction for the Church through annual meetings. The Board of Trustees acted as the legal representatives of the Church. The Church Committee provided day-to-day administration of the Church's activities through monthly meetings. Other clubs, in turn, reported to these organizations. First priest-in-charge and rector was Reverend Norman John Southcott.
