=History=

The Also known for a short time as Assemblée évangélique, the seeds for this assembly meeting go back to the 1940s when a tract band from Owen Sound, Ontario, mailed French tracts with the offer of a free French New Testament to the area of Cyrville. The Fournier family requested the literature and the mother and daughter were saved.

 A believer, Jacob Martin of the Scripture Truth Book Store at 442 Bank Street in Ottawa heard about the Fourniers and, with a friend, held Bible studies in the Fournier home on St. Laurent Avenue. He also introduced them to Grace and Truth Chapel. In 1943, [[Louis Germain]], a missionary from France, arrived in Ottawa. He was put in contact with the Fournier family and began to hold Sunday School for children along with Bible studies in French.
