St. John's Vancouver Anglican Church (known in short as "St. John's Vancouver") is an evangelical Anglican church in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. It was founded in 2011 by the clergy and almost all of the laity of St. John's Shaughnessy after the group left the Anglican Church of Canada over theological and moral issues and the congregation lost a legal battle to keep its building during the Anglican realignment.[1] With more than 700 in regular attendance, it is the largest church in the Anglican Network in Canada, a diocese of the Anglican Church in North America.[2]
