Eastview Community Church

Eastview Community Church is a Mennonite Brethren church in Winnipeg, Manitoba. It split from the River East Mennonite Brethren Church in 1990. At first, they rented a facility with a seating capacity of 150, and they eventually built a church building in 1995. In 2003, Eastview was a satellite host church for the Willow Creek Association Leadership Summit. The church periodically holds a MusicAL performance called "HymnSing", hosting the event in April of 2009, September of 2009, and March of 2010. The September 2009 performance featured the Muddy River Quartet, the Encore Vocal Quartet, and the Eastman Male Choir. In November of 2009, Steve Bell had a concert at the church. In October of 2010, the church hosted the inaugural Honouring Heroes Award Ceremony, an annual event recognizing people who have fought to support victims of [...] trafficking. Member of Parliament (MP) Joy Smith conducted the ceremony. In response to a 2012 Winnipeg production of She Has a Name, a Canadian play AbOUT human trafficking by Andrew Kooman, the church hosted a discussion with three human trafficking experts, including Dianna Bussey, Director of Correctional and Justice Services with The Salvation Army; and Shona Stewart, director of Dignity House, a halfway house for former [...] workers.
