 Rev. ALBERICO DEVITO went to his eternal reward on February 18th. 2012. His life and ministry were an inspiration to many. He will be greatly missed by our CAOG community, but we rejoice in the knowledge that he is with his beloved Lord and Saviour.

Welcome to the Canadian Assemblies of God Website |

The General Conference of the Canadian Assemblies of God, with Headquarters in Montreal, Quebec is a co-operative fellowship of Pentecostal churches.
Our history dates back to 1912, where Italian evangelicals living in Hamilton, Ontario became personally acquainted with the pentecostal testimony and the Baptism in the Holy Spirit. Filled with new zeal and full of the Holy Spirit they sought out other Italians. The gospel spread to Toronto and then Montreal. In a short span of time hundreds of Italian immigrants were saved and baptized in the Spirit.
The first official gathering (General Conference) of these churches took place in 1944. They adopted the name Italian Pentecostal church of Canada.
The primary purpose that lead to the organization of these churches, under the leading of the Holy Spirit, was threefold: promote co-operation in World Missions & Evangelism, unity of doctrine and the recognition of God called & God given ministries.
