Centre for Christian Studies

As a theological school, The Centre for Christian Studies, has been training women and men for ministry since 1892.

CCS is rooted in the legacy of the deaconess training schools of the Anglican and United Churches of Canada.

Our educational model employs action/reflection, experiential, integrative, transformative learning.

Based in Winnipeg, CCS provides programs to participants from across Canada:

a ministry of compassion and justice-grounded in the example of Jesus who “did not come to be served, but to serve” (Mark 10:45) Students walking a path toward diaconal ministry – 

Lay leaders searching for new skills for their life in faith, 

Ministers seeking continuing education. 

CCS values community,

diversity,

creativity,

and right relationships.

The Centre for Christian Studies is committed to “living a theology of justice.”

Companions of the Centre

The first “Companion of the Centre” was honoured in 2002.

Through this award, CCS honours, graduates who through their life and ministry, have brought distinction and honour to the Centre for Christian Studies, or, members of the CCS community who have made a significant contribution to the work of CCS, or, individuals in the wider community whose life and work epitomizes the ideals of CCS.   
