History
Chrétiens réunis au nom du Seigneur Jésus-Christ, Sainte-Flavie, Bas-Saint-Laurent, Southeast Québec, Canada is a French open brethren assembly founded in 1967. For the first decade it was known as Assemblée Chrétienne de Price.
Initial contacts in the Gaspé peninsula date from 1965 when visits were first made to the area. September of the following year saw the arrival of Jacques Jolin along with his wife, Angéline and young son David. Scarcely one month later, on October 11, 1966, father and son were both killed in an automobile accident and Angéline sustained major injuries including the loss of one eye. Needless to say, this was a major setback. The Gaspé would wait another four years to receive the longed-for resident worker.
Visits continued to be made to the area by many workers, including Gaston Jolin, Vincent Davey, Joseph Darling, Robert Thrall, Howard Forbes, Donald Cox, Joseph Tremblay, John Spreeman and Cyril Shontoff. For thirteen years, Daily Vacation Bible School was conducted here with sometimes as many as sixty children attending. Meanwhile, in 1968, a house was rented at Saint-Joseph for a year’s duration and prayers were requested for at least one couple to come and settle in the area.
In 1970, Vincent Davey purchased a house in the village of Price for the purpose of establishing what turned out to be the first French-speaking assembly in the Gaspé. In the same year, the Lord sent commended workers Larry and Stella Buote from Prince Edward Island to settle in the area. By 1977, the Assembly Chrétienne de Price was a reality. Graham Hogdson from Forest, Ontario, and his wife, Marie-Paule arrived at this point in time and were, over the next decade, a real help to the work.
In 1987/88 the assembly moved to nearby Sainte-Flavie, to a large, newly-constructed building. In addition to the regular assembly activities, the facilities are used for conferences of assemblies in the New Brunswick circuit of conservative assemblies to which this one belongs. The assembly was renamed Chrétiens assemblés au nom du Seigneur Jésus-Christ.
