History
Services began in St. Faith's Hall in 1946, with the first Vestry Meeting held October 23, 1947. Archdeacon Thompson was directly responsible for choosing the name of St. Faith and was used in reference to St. Faith churches in England and Brandon, Manitoba. It was originally a mission church of St. Augustine, Marpole. The cornerstone of the parish church was laid on December 10, 1954 by Lieutenant Governor of BC, the Honourable Colonel Clarence Wallace with Bishop Godfrey Gower. It was later dedicated Easter Day April 10, 1955 and consecrated in 1969.
