I'm still learning about this congregation. Do you know more about them? I would be happy to hear from you!

1963: United Mennonite Churches of BC started looking at Kamloops as a place for a new mission.

September 1966: Three families in Kamloops started a Bible Study group.

February 1967: John and Lydia Hiebert were placed in Kamloops as local leaders.

24 November 1968: John Hiebert was ordained as a minister and the Kamloops Mennonite Fellowship became an official congregation.
