A church home for Arabic-speaking Christians in British Columbia
Searching for an Arabic church can mean more than finding a service in a familiar language. It can mean finding people who understand the cultures, family stories, questions, and transitions that come with building a life in Canada. Father's Heart Ministry exists to be that kind of church family: a place to encounter the love of God the Father, hear biblical teaching, receive prayer, and form lasting friendships centred on Jesus Christ.
Our congregation gathers in Surrey and welcomes people from across Metro Vancouver, including Vancouver, Burnaby, Langley, Delta, Coquitlam, and neighbouring communities. We have one physical gathering location in Surrey; these wider city names describe the people we welcome and serve, not separate church branches. Whether Arabic is your first language, you are part of an Arabic-speaking household, or you simply want a multicultural Christian community, you are welcome to visit.
What happens at our Saturday church service?
Our weekly gathering includes worship, prayer, Bible-centred preaching, and time to connect with one another. Arabic and English are both part of the life of the ministry. The goal is not a performance; it is a sincere gathering where people can draw closer to God and where guests can participate at a comfortable pace. You do not need to have everything figured out before you come. People who are exploring Christian faith, returning to church, or looking for a new church family are all welcome.
Father's Heart Ministry is connected with the Pentecostal Assemblies of Canada. We believe in the good news of Jesus Christ, the authority of Scripture, the work of the Holy Spirit, prayer, spiritual growth, and practical love for people. Our ministry seeks to help believers become rooted in faith, experience healing and restoration, discover their God-given purpose, and carry the Gospel into their families and communities.
Arabic church for Surrey, Vancouver, BC, and newcomers to Canada
Surrey is home to people from many nations, and the wider Vancouver region continues to welcome Arabic-speaking newcomers from the Middle East and North Africa. A local church can become an important spiritual and relational home during that transition. At Father's Heart Church, people can pray in the language closest to their heart while also building relationships across languages and generations. Families, young adults, children, and individuals are invited to become part of the community rather than remain anonymous visitors.
We also publish sermons, faith conversations, and Christian teaching online. Those resources help people who live elsewhere in British Columbia or Canada connect with Arabic and English biblical content before visiting in person. Online ministry is useful, but it does not replace the encouragement of gathering with a local Christian community. If you are within travelling distance of Surrey, we would be glad to meet you at a Saturday service.
