[edit] History
W.N. Brennan came to the small city of Truro in 1893. An assembly began in the Brennan home. This work continued only a short time, but in 1923 a Gospel tent was taken to Truro and a few professed salvation. An assembly was begun again at that time. The Christians built their own hall, probably called the Truro Gospel Hall but later changed to Good News Bible Chapel. The assembly ceased to function, perhaps in the 1980s, and the building was sold to the believers at Debert Gospel Hall. The Truro assembly now meets at the Young Street Gospel Hall.
