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.

“They throw in Drummer Hodge, to rest
Uncoffined—just as found:
His landmark is a kopje-crest
That breaks the veldt around;”
—Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
“Are there no Moravians in the Moon, that not a missionary has yet visited this poor pagan planet of ours, to civilize civilization and christianize Christendom?”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“You should approach Joyce’s Ulysses as the illiterate Baptist preacher approaches the Old Testament: with faith.”
—William Faulkner (1897–1962)
“The spiritual kinship between Lincoln and Whitman was founded upon their Americanism, their essential Westernism. Whitman had grown up without much formal education; Lincoln had scarcely any education. One had become the notable poet of the day; one the orator of the Gettsyburg Address. It was inevitable that Whitman as a poet should turn with a feeling of kinship to Lincoln, and even without any association or contact feel that Lincoln was his.”
—Edgar Lee Masters (1869–1950)
