The vision for Lighthouse Tabernacle Apostolic began on January 1, 2011, when Pastor Stephen Hogan received a call from the Lord to start a church in Montreal. He began planning and evangelizing and, in July 2012, secured a location in the Pierrefonds–Roxboro area at 10364 Gouin West, Roxboro. Pastor Hogan began holding Bible study services on Wednesday evenings.

In October 2012, the building could no longer be used. Discouraged and with the congregation scattered, Pastor Hogan held a Wednesday evening service at his mother’s home. A few days later, on Sunday, Pastor Hogan and his wife held a service at Parc de la Promenade-Lalande in Roxboro. That same week, Pastor Hogan visited someone in need of prayer, and it was during that prayer meeting that he met Sister Sophia Obidigbo. Sister Obidigbo, better known as Sis. Sophie, invited Pastor Hogan and his family to her home the following week for a prayer meeting at 8626 Rue Basswood, Apartment 133, Roxboro. After that meeting, Lighthouse began holding Sunday night services, and the group grew weekly.

In 2014, after two years of services at Sister Sophie’s home, Lighthouse Tabernacle Apostolic stepped out in faith to officially launch as an independent ministry. The church began searching for a rental space and found its current location at 5020 Salaberry, Montreal, Quebec. Advertising and preparation of the space began in March 2014, and the first official service at the new location was held on May 4, 2014. Services have since been held in English, French, and Spanish. Pastor Stephen Hogan was officially ordained as a pastor on Saturday, August 30, 2014, by Pastor Carmen Hamilton of Jubilee Apostolic Church (UPCI).
​
Although Lighthouse was launched as an independent ministry, Pastor Hogan consistently sought mentorship from leaders within the UPCI organization, who helped shape and guide the ministry. As of March 16, 2023, Lighthouse officially became part of the United Pentecostal Church International under the Quebec District. Despite many challenges and victories over the years, God has faithfully sustained the ministry through it all.
