Edenburg Church of God in Christ, Mennonite (Edenburg, Manitoba, Canada)
The Edenburg Church of God in Christ, Mennonite congregation in Edenburg, Manitoba, Canada was established in 1884. Edenburg was about three miles east of Gretna. The congregation started after ministers Peter Toews and Abraham Isaac converted some local families.
Minister John D. Dyck provided leadership to the small group in ca. 1884; in 1885 the group was composed of about 15 members.
Some members were lost to the Swedenborgians, and in 1889 the remaining two families moved to Hillsboro, Kansas, USA.
