Providence University College And Theological Seminary
Providence University College and Theological Seminary is an interdenominational Evangelical Christian university college and theological seminary located approximately south-east of Winnipeg in Otterburne, Manitoba. History The Winnipeg Bible Training School was founded in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada in 1925, and renamed a short time later to Winnipeg Bible Institute.

Enrollment that year was 70 students. A graduate division was formed as Pro ...
