Baie-Comeau is the centre of socio-economic activity for the Manicouagan region of Québec. It is made up of nine communities situated on the north shore of the Saint-Lawrence River, 350 km. downstream from Quebec City. Groundwork for an assembly testimony began here in one of these communities, Hauterive, in 1977 on the threshold of Québec’s evangelical explosion. The following year, several believers first met as a group to break bread. In 1982, Hauterive was joined with Baie-Comeau to form one municipality under the latter name.

The work apparently started following the arrival in the area of a young man, Raynald Carbonneau, who had recently come to know the Lord through the influence of believers at Montmagny. Others soon followed, drawn by employment opportunities. These included Renaud Larrivée who served as correspondent for many years during which time meetings were held in homes or in a local school.
