The Elmwood Mennonite Brethren Church traces its beginning to 1907 when Johann Warkentin, leading minister in the Winkler Mennonite Brethren Church gathered believers together in Winnipeg for the purpose of establishing a Mennonite Brethren mission. Known as the Winnipeg City Mission, the group began meeting in a small chapel on Burrows Avenue in 1911. In 1913 they were formally organized as the Winnipeg Mennonite Brethren Church meeting. They met in the North End Chapel until a building was completed on College Avenue in 1929. As other Mennonite Brethren groups began to meet in North Kildonan and in Winnipeg's South End, the congregation meeting in the North End Chapel, was called the North End Mennonite Brethren Church. In 1953, a decision was reached to leave the location in Winnipeg's North End and build a new church on Henderson Highway, then called Kelvin Street. It was named the Elmwood Mennonite Brethren Church upon completion in 1954.

John Block, Menno Kroeker, Rudy Voth and Peter Block sang together for fifteen years (1952-1967). A number of other men joined and sang for a period after 1967. Gospel Messengers was incorporated in 1964. In 1967 the Messengers entered full-time ministry, travelling across North America, conducting crusades, and singing in churches. They were commonly known as "The Messengers Quartet" or "The Messengers" when they teamed up with various evangelists. In 1969, Rudy Boschman joined the team as the speaker, and for the next five years the Messengers were sponsored by the Canadian Mennonite Brethren Conference, conducting evangelistic campaigns in many communities. In 1971, the Messengers began an association with Global Outreach, a world-wide missionary organization, for the purpose of the administration of its mailings required to raise financial support and to facilitate its bookings. In 1980, the Messengers merged with Global as one of its many missionary groups. John Block served as a singer in the quartet for 30 years (1952-1981) and served as executive-secretary of Global Outreach (Canadian Office) in St. Catharines.
