Emmanuel Apostolic Church of Ottawa, Canada’s Nation Capital City was founded in 1969 by the Reverend Rudolph L. McEwan, Sr. who began his ministry as a young minister in Jamaica, West Indies. A few years later, he with his wife and children opened the door of this ministry in Ottawa.

Emmanuel was the first West Indian assembly in the Ottawa area. Many other similar assemblies in the local region today can attribute some part of their roots to this misnitry.In the early eighties Emmanuel Apostolic became affiliated with The Church of Our Lord Jesus Christ of the Apostolic Faith, Inc. NY (COOLJC) and falls under the Western New York and Canada Diocese, led by Diocesan Bishop, Robert L. Sanders of Buffalo, NY.

August 1997 brought a change of leadership at Emmanuel Church when Ordained Elder Bryan Williams was appointed pastor by COOLJC. Emmanuel Apostolic continues to play a prominent role in many areas of ministry, locally and internationally.
