KINGDOM MINISTRY SCHOOL

January 1, 1961, saw a significant event take place in Canada​—the opening of the first Kingdom Ministry School at the branch office in Toronto. By the end of August of that year, 151 overseers and special pioneers had completed the course. Many were the remarks of appreciation for what had been learned. Some even spoke of actually changing their personalities during that four-week course. By 1971 there had been 152 Canadian classes of the Kingdom Ministry School, accommodating 3,370 students. Thus a large number of overseers and special pioneers received this fine training that more fully equipped them for responsible assignments in their local congregations during the 1970’s.

Revised Kingdom Ministry School courses in the ensuing years have provided training for all the elders of Canada’s congregations, 5,980 going through the latest course in 1977. Truly, since the inception of the Kingdom Ministry School in 1961, it has been a decided help in preparing many for further service in the congregations and in the field.
