[[Assemblee Chretienne de Jonquiere, QC|Assemblee Chretienne Assemblée Chrétienne de JonquiereJonquière]], JonquiereJonquière, Saguenay, Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean, Central [[Quebec]], [[Canada]] In 1947 brethren Charles-Eugène Boulianne, Leslie Russell and Joseph Trudeau, the latter saved at Girardville, began the Arvida assembly, now located in Jonquière. Meetings rotated in their homes. Two years later they were joined by Howard Forbes, bringing to seven the number of those breaking bread in the little assembly. As the assembly grew, the four above-mentioned brethren became the first elders. In 1954, a single-level building was possibly founded as erected for assembly meetings, construction being supervised by Roy Buttery. With Roy’s subsequent move to the area in 1959, there were three full-time workers labouring together. The newly-constructed meeting place, today a bilingual (French private home, served until l966 when the Anglican church at Kénogami was purchased. Finally, after the municipalities of Arvida and English) open brethren Kénogami later amalgamated with Jonquière, the assembly around 1947took the name of this latter locality. In 1979, but presumed to have changed to primarily a Frenchsignificant number of believers hived-speaking off to formally establish the assembly work in 1961nearby Chicoutimi, a work that had been in process of development over a number of years under the leadership of Roy Buttery. Growth continued unabated at Jonquière and by March 1987, a new edifice was in place to meet the needs of the expanding congregation. It continues was at this juncture that commended workers Don and Beth Cox arrived, following consecutive ministries in present day (2020+)Drummondville, Sainte-Anne-des-Monts and Cap-de-la-Madeleine.
