History
There was a French open brethren assembly at Lachine, Montréal, Québec from 1973-1982 named Eglise Emmanuel.
This assembly, on the southwestern shore of the island of Montréal, was begun through the efforts of Raymond Taylor who had earlier established the work at Boyce Street in the eastern end of the city. In the mid-sixties, a woman living in this area had been saved through the testimony of her sister who was in fellowship at Boyce Street. Her husband eventually came to the Lord and in 1965 meetings were begun in their home.
By 1973, Eglise Emmanuel was functioning as a New Testament assembly. In the meantime, Raymond had been joined by Marcel Laplante and Mr. and Mrs. Robert Lortie, recent graduates of Bethel Bible School in Sherbrooke. Within five years the group numbered some thirty persons.
In the early 1980s, the assembly, still quite small, was meeting on Sunday afternoons at Côte-Saint-Luc Bible Chapel. Other believers living in the same area who were fellowshipping at Groupe biblique de la Rive-sud on the south shore. With the blessing of the latter, the two groups merged to form a new assembly in 1982, incorporated under the name of Groupe biblique de l’Ouest de Montréal.
