Quebec -during the 1950's as they
sought to bring the message of
Christianity to French Canada.
Now, after 41 years of ministry

Christianity and the Bible were un-
heard of, there now exist thriving
congregations of Bible -believing
Christians who are spreading the
Gospel throughout Quebec in an
unprecedented fashion.
One of the week's high -lights
was Saturday night's French Cana-

cuisine. The conference's theme,
"Extending the Vine in '89" was re-
flected in the hall's elaborate deco-
ralong with a maitre de, costumed
waiters & waitresses and selected
french Canadian dishes prepared by
members of the church.
