About Living Faith
Living
Faith Church is a lovely church where the members are friendly and warm.
The seating capacity is about 400. It is fully air conditioned and has a
baptistery.
The Living Faith Church was formed
on April 23, 1988, under the Big Tent on Wulff Road on the
property opposite Three Queen Restaurant (at the time).
Today the site is being used as a Auto Mall. The
church was the result of a six weeks evangelistic meeting
conducted by Pastor Hugh Roach who also became the first
pastor of the church. Shortly after the church was
organized it moved to Bahamas Academy Gym on Wulff Road with
275 members where it remained for over eight years.
The active membership as of January 10, 2011 is 590.
Pastors who have served Living
Faith are: Hugh Roach, Jeremiah Duncombe, Basil
Sturrup, Paul Scavella, and currently, Barrington Brennen
(since January 21, 2008). See photos

THE PROPERTY
In 1991 the Government of The
Bahamas offered to the Bahamas Conference two acres of
property on Old Trail Road for the erection of a church and
Early Learning Center. The Conference apportioned the
front part of the property to the church. The entire
property was leased for $1,100 a year with a lease to
purchase agreement. In 2008 the Living Faith and along
with the Bahamas Conference requested to purchase the
property and it was granted for the the price of $19,800.
The Living Faith Church paid 11,800 to the Conference to
assist in purchasing the property. The conference paid
the balance of the cost.
