Visits continued to be made to the area by many workers. 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 Buote]] and his wife Stella from Prince Edward Island to settle in the area. By 1977, the Assembly Chrétienne de Price was a reality. Graham Hogdson Hodgson 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''.
