Dr. David Lavigne (Member): The Evangelical Christian Church in Canada (Christian Disciples) 10/24/2010 5:37 PM
he Evangelical Christian Church in Canada (Christian Disciples), as a mainstream religion in Canada, traces its historic roots to the formal organization of the Christian Church in 1804 in Bourbon County, Kentucky, U.S.A., and in 1810 near Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, Canada under the leadership of Barton Warren Stone (1772-1844), a former Presbyterian minister. The Stone Movement later merged with the efforts of Thomas Campbell (1763-1854) and his son Alexander Campbell (1788-1866) to become the Restoration Movement that gave birth to the Churches of Christ (Non-Instrumental), the Christian Churches and Churches of Christ, and The Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). The emphasis on religious freedom became strong enough that Barton Stone avoided any man-made ecclesiastical traditions that resulted in a movement that was "largely without dogma, form or structure," committing only to a primitive Christianity. This movement sought to restore the whole Christian church and the unification of all Christians in a single body patterned after the church of the New Testament. On June 28, 1804, they adopted the name "Christian" to identify their group based on its use in Acts 11:26 which became the remnants of the Springfield Presbytery known as the "Christian Church," and later The Evangelical Christian Church (Christian Disciples).
