A brief history of the Emmanuel Alliance Church of Ottawa
In 1989, the Ottawa Chinese Evangelistic Association planted a church in the Kanata community in the west end of the city. At that time, about seven Cantonese-speaking families participated. In 1995, God led the church to move to its current location. Beginning in 1996, the Mandarin gospel ministry began to develop. Now, the church carries out evangelistic work in three languages (Cantonese, English, and Mandarin), and has active children and youth ministries. The total attendance of Sunday worship is about 350 people, and the Mandarin Congregation is about 120 people.
