I also noticed the current seminary class schedule is on the website here. If you're interested in checking out Briercrest, why not sign up to take a class? They are all taught as one week modulars, so it's easy to fit study into a busy schedule. I believe about half of the Briercrest seminary students live on campus, and half travel in for classes. We would love to have you!

Wow! Talk about a trip down memory lane. I was trying to explain the village I grew up in to my co-worker. Trying to explain "village" to people only familiar with metropolises is a challenge. Thanks for posting all of these pictures. It's a great place and I hope you're enjoying it!
Thanks for the comment! Yes, Caronport can be challenging to explain. I guess I think of it as a family of schools surrounded by a little town.
yes, most people start thinking "compound." LOL
My wife intend to sell our southeast Texas home and outside America, maybe in Regina, Sask. Our oldest daughter, husband James, and three children live many hundreds of miles directly south of Regina. James pastors a Southern Baptist church just north of Denver. An interstate highway bridges part of the gap between Regina and Denver. Information that might help us relocate would be appreciated. I AM A FORMER RESIDENT OF CANADA. When I was a student at Prairie Bible Institute (now "Prairie Bible College"), in Three Hills, Alberta, your school's name was "Briercrest Bible Institute." When I began my first year of studies at PBI, I was 11 months short of my 26th birthday. It was 1966, and Canada used miles, gallons, feet, etc., instead of metric. Folk drove across the Canadian border without passports or other formalities. Nobody cared that my hunting guns and ammunition were in my vehicle. U.S. and Canadian border guards did not waste time on such normal things, though Canadian guards did not allow pistols in. In 1966, I was accepted as an immigrant to Canada by mailing an application form to Immigration. Soon, a letter from Ottawa arrived at PBI announcing I was now a landed immigrant. For awhile, after the PBI years, I was a missionary in Indian villages ("First Nations") in the Northwest Territories. -- Rev. Jim Rodgers, Texas
Hi Jim! Thanks for writing--wow, things have sure changed!
My guess is that you've lost your permanent resident status, but you would want to contact the CIC (website http://www.cic.gc.ca) to see what they say. Perhaps there's an easier way to regain it if you've had it before? Or if you want to move here for a job, you could get a work permit. Hope it works out!
