L'Association des Églises Missionnaire Baptiste Landmark du Québec (or the Landmark Missionary Baptist Association of Quebec) is a local association of French-speaking Landmark Missionary Baptists in Quebec.
In 2000, this association was composed of 4 churches with 201 members. These churches also affiliate with the Interstate & Foreign Landmark Missionary Baptist Association of America, based largely in the southern parts of Alabama, Louisiana, and Mississippi. In addition to these 4 churches, 6 other churches in Quebec participate in the Interstate & Foreign Association, and are in fellowship with the churches of l'Association des Églises Missionnaire Baptiste Landmark. This makes a total of 10 French-speaking Landmark Baptist churches in Quebec with 531 members.
L'Association des Églises Missionnaire Baptiste Landmark holds a general faith and practice in common with Landmark Missionary Baptists in the United States, and, like the Interstate & Foreign Association, believe pastoral support should be by free will offerings and observe the rite of feet washing.
