The Evangelical Christian Church (Christian Disciples) as an evangelical Protestant Canadian church body in North America can be traced to the formal organization of the Christian Church in 1804, in Bourbon County, Kentucky under the leadership of Barton Warren Stone (1772–1844). The Stone Movement later merged with the efforts of Thomas Campbell (1772–1854) 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 Evangelical Christian Church (Christian Disciples) as a new group within the Restoration tradition was reorganized in 2001. The Evangelical Christian Church`s national office in Canada is in Waterloo, Ontario.
