Roxton Falls Church of God in Christ, Mennonite (Roxton Falls, Quebec, Canada)
The Roxton Falls Church of God in Christ, Mennonite congregation in Roxton Falls, Quebec, Canada was established in 1996 after a number of families who had been engaged as mission workers in the Montreal mission settled in the Roxton Falls area beginning in 1992. For several years these folks continued to worship with the group in Montreal, but in spring 1996 organized as a separate congregation with nine members.
Initially, services were held in homes, then a community center, then in a rented house. Eventually, a small church was built on Route 222.
The congregation also operates the Roxton Falls School.
In 2020 the congregation was part of the Church of God in Christ, Mennonite. The ministers were Henry Dyck and Keith Wedel.
