1990 Article
Between 1949 and 1959 many Mennonite Brethren missionaries on their way to the Belgian Congo (now Democratic Republic of Congo, formerly Zaire) lived briefly in Quebec to learn the French language. Some of them brought Quebec to the attention of the Canadian Mennonite Brethren Conference and its mission board -- Canada Inland Mission (1957). In 1961 Lydia Krahn Dyck and Ernest Dyck, back from the Congo, settled in St-Jérôme about 25 miles northwest of Montreal to begin a church planting ministry. The first baptismal service was held in 1964; in October of the same year the first congregation was organized with 16 members.
In July 1984 the Quebec Mennonite Brethren congregations joined the Canadian Conference as a fully-recognized provincial conference, known in French as Association québécoise des Frères mennonites du Québec. It is the only French-speaking Mennonite Brethren conference in North America. It was composed of eight congregations with a membership of 612 in 1996. With the support of the Canadian Conference, the Quebec Conference administers its church-planting program, a camp and a Bible school, and the Institut Biblique Laval in the Montreal suburb of Saint-Laurent. -- Jean Raymond Théorêt
