Our mission at Living Water Community Church is to inspire believers to spread a passion for the supremacy of God in all things, to the Glory of God and for the joy of all peoples through Jesus Christ.

Our vision is to build a God-centered, Christ-exalting, Bible-saturated, prayer powered, diversity-loving, missions-mobilizing, family-strengthening, disciple-producing, joy-pursuing church that reaches out to Vancouver and the world (learn more here). To accomplish this we believe that our greatest obligation is to delight in God in all things and in all situations.

For we believe that God created us for His glory and that God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him more »

We invite you to watch the following brief excerpt that summarizes just how God is encouraging us to reflect on the magnificence of God's creation and the importance of Christ's church.

At Living Water we also take fellowshipping very seriously. The following video contains a few highlights of our recent Liquid Nitrogen Ice Cream Party held at Fallen Leaf Park on August 10, 2008. Photos of our party can be viewed here.

Lessons from the Friends of William Cowper

By Susan Verstraete

Any way you look at it, the poet William Cowper (pronounced "Cooper") had a difficult life. His mother and five siblings died by the time William was six years old. He was sent to a boarding school where an older student abused him. As an adult he battled delusions and depression. And although he never recorded a single doubt about the character of God or the effectiveness of Christ's sacrifice on the cross as propitiation of sin, he spent years wavering in the assurance of his own salvation.

But Cowper was blessed with friends. From childhood until his death, Cowper was
surrounded with people who came alongside him to offer encouragement and support. Some were wiser than others, but we can learn about friendship from all of them.

We learn that we can't protect our friends from God-ordained suffering. William Cowper's mother died when he was only six years old. Young William's nurses assumed it was better to spare him that grief. Instead of being truthful, they told him
that she "went on a long trip." Later he looked out the window and saw the
hearse as it left the house. He realized the truth, but even then, the nurses assured Cowper his mother would soon be back, confusing the boy and prolonging his grief.
