==History==
[[Assemblee Chretienne, ''Assemblée chrétienne de Cap -de -la -Madeleine'', QC|Assemblee Chretiennea French open-brethren assembly, Cap de la Madeleine]]was begun in 1947 as a result of the labours of early pioneers such as John Spreeman, TroisNoah Gratton and Paul Boëda. Elsie Scott and Dorothy Kenyon were part of the team as was Sheldon Bard who arrived two years later. It was the fifth French-Rivieres (Three Rivers)speaking assembly to see the light of day in ''La Belle Province''. The first province-wide conference for all francophone assemblies was held here in September 1949.

The spring of 1950 witnessed the riots against believers at nearby Shawinigan Falls. The education of believers’ children, Mauriciewho could with much difficulty remain in the Catholic schools of the province, Central [[Quebec]]was a major concern at that time. This assembly established one of the few alternate schools to cope with the situation. Needless to say, [[Canada]] was founded around 1947 the assembly has had its ups and continues thru present day (2020+) downs over the years as do all local churches. Most recently, a French open brethren assemblyfire destroyed the building in 2012. A new and enlarged facility has since been erected on the same location.
