Rev. D.J. Emmerson began his ministry in the late 1940's as an evangelist. He pastored several churches before moving to Kitchener Waterloo in 1960. During a very unique experience he heard the audible voice of God say “It is now time to open a church in Kitchener.” He and his wife Edna began with three families in a YMCA room. He is both a pioneer and a patriarch. On Feb 2, 2011 he transitioned to his eternal home in heaven.
