History
The Bible college was first established as a Bible school in 1940 in Stouffville, Ontario by Ward M Shantz. In 1943 the Bible school was moved by Reverend Issac Brubacher to the Gormley Missionary Church in Gormley, Ontario. In 1964 the school moved to Kitchener (now site of Centre In The Square on Ahrens near Queen Street) and then to the current location at 100 Fergus Avenue in Kitchener.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“To history therefore I must refer for answer, in which it would be an unhappy passage indeed, which should shew by what fatal indulgence of subordinate views and passions, a contest for an atom had defeated well founded prospects of giving liberty to half the globe.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
“I believe that history has shape, order, and meaning; that exceptional men, as much as economic forces, produce change; and that passé abstractions like beauty, nobility, and greatness have a shifting but continuing validity.”
—Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
“To care for the quarrels of the past, to identify oneself passionately with a cause that became, politically speaking, a losing cause with the birth of the modern world, is to experience a kind of straining against reality, a rebellious nonconformity that, again, is rare in America, where children are instructed in the virtues of the system they live under, as though history had achieved a happy ending in American civics.”
—Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)
