Prairie Bible Institute
Prairie opened its doors for the first time on October 9, 1922 with eight students meeting in a small abandoned farmhouse. The campus steadily expanded as more and more students began arriving, eager to learn from L.E. Maxwell and numerous other dedicated Bible teachers.
Prairie serves the Church by discipling Christians through biblically integrated post-secondary education.
Prairie is committed to providing excellent training for service that addresses the greatest needs of the world for the glory of God.
Prairie is an interdenominational community that is committed to the following values:
Christ Centered - Christ is the life-transforming centre of and reason for our learning community. We lovingly follow Him, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, and gratefully depend on the Lord Almighty for all our needs.
Bible Based - The Bible is the God-breathed Truth through which He nourishes our community. We willingly obey it and willingly submit our lives, community and program to its authority.
Discipleship Directed - We are a faith community being discipled by one another as followers of Jesus. We diligently teach and eagerly learn His truth to be transformed together into His likeness.
Mission Mandated - God is on mission to bring redemption and reconciliation, sending His Church as ambassadors into the world. We actively respond through lives of servanthood and sacrifice to honour God and for the good of others.
Prairie is comprised of three separate colleges: Prairie Bible College, Prairie College of Applied Arts & Technology and Prairie School of Mission Aviation.
Prairie Bible College focuses primarily on ministry preparation. We offer accredited four-year Bachelor of Arts degrees in a variety of areas including Biblical Studies, Ministry, Theology and Intercultural Studies. Also offered are two-year Associate of Arts programs and one-year certificates that provide an excellent foundation for a variety of future endeavors.
In September 2006, Prairie started the first college in Canada to offer two-year vocational programs in conjunction with Christian higher education. With programs in health care, digital media, human services and sports management and leadership, Prairie College of Applied Arts & Technology allows students to pursue their chosen vocational field and biblical studies.
Prairie has offered quality training in mission aviation for many years. In a recent audit, Transport Canada indicated that our students score higher on their flight tests and written scores compared to students at other Transport Canada licensed facilities across the nation. Our desire is that we will to continue to offer excellent mission aviation training though Prairie School of Mission Aviation.
