[edit] History
Penticton is at the lower end of Okanogan Lake, about 240 miles east of Vancouver. There an assembly of 60 believers was centrally located in Central Gospel Chapel in 1954. In the late 1970s, the assembly relocated to 120 Preston Avenue and took the name Preston Avenue Bible Chapel. Thirty miles above Okanogan Lake is Westbank Assemblies, BC, a little community which has two assemblies, each with its own hall, both in existence for many years. A small assembly in the city of Kamloops Assembly, BC met in a home in 1954, but lasted only a while. However, in the early 1980s, two assemblies developed in Kamloops Assembly, BC and continue. About 140 miles east of Kamloops Assembly, BC is Revelstoke Assembly, BC, where until 1953 a small assembly met in the home of Fred Woodland.
