Vancouver Centennial Plaque #75 – Andrew Roddan

Address:           First United Church, 320 E Hastings Street

Status:             Missing, but there is a (virtual) Places That Matter sign for the church

The file at the Vancouver Archives didn’t include the official text for this plaque, so I’ve drafted my own version of what it may have covered.

“ANDREW RODDAN

Rev Andrew Roddan (1883-1948) was the Minister of Vancouver's First United Church for almost two decades and a champion of social justice, providing practical help for homeless or unemployed people.”
