Faith Bible Chapel, NB
Contents |
[edit] History
In November 1968, several young couples from the Mountain Road Gospel Hall, NB in Moncton left and commenced to meet in the Riverview High School. In February 1970, the building formerly occupied by the Gunningsville Baptist Church, NB, situated on Coverdale Road in Gunningsville/Riverview, was purchased by these believers for their meetings. Repairs were made and the main auditorium redecorated in preparation for the official opening of Faith Bible Chapel, NB in March 1970. The trustees at the time of the purchase of the building were Jack Briggins, Reginald Burge, Allison Morton and David Tipper.
The believers carried on an active Sunday School, and many children had the opportunity of hearing the Gospel as did their parents when they attended special programs of the Sunday School. However, after about a dozen years of meeting, many of the couples originating this work moved from the metropolitan area of Moncton to different parts of Canada and the United States. Some of the Christians returned once again into fellowship at the Mountain Road Gospel Hall, NB in Moncton, and the meeting disbanded in the mid 1980s.
