Collective responsibility for student learning is a priority for us. It is truly inspirational to see such a strong team commitment to children's’ ed- ucation. As a staff, we are very appreciative of your involvement in your child’s education, and we are grateful to be working with such a strong parent community.

  • Report for 2016 Annual Convention Canadian Southern Baptist Seminary & College • President • Rob Blackaby
    Report for 2016 Annual Convention Canadian Southern Baptist Seminary & College • President • Rob Blackaby Introduction In recent years I have been reflecting afresh on what it means to be a Christian leader in today’s cultural context. To get that right will dramatically influence how we function as a theological school in Canada today. To get that wrong will result in our school being swept up in confusion and chaos as we rage against the winds of societal change and shifting cultural values. There is no greater calling in this life than to be a child of God. Everything else we will ever do of any worth hinges on our commitment to this. Every choice we make matters, because it is always part of a sweeping set of choices that will either lead us closer to Christ (and therefore into deeper fellowship with Him, acquaintance with His Word, affection for His people, and identification with His purposes) or further from Him (and therefore into the shallows of human existence and selfish indulgence). In light of this, Jesus’ difficult words in Luke 17:1ff are searching with regards to obedience in the life of a disciple. We say that we exist to train God-called men and women for twenty-first century leadership in tough places. We say this knowing that the fulfillment of such a vision will cost us much! We seek to live our lives in such a way that at the end of it we can say with integrity, “I am an unworthy servant; I have only done my duty.” If that is to be the case, we need daily to put into practice three critical and counter-cultural lessons.

  • GREETINGS from YOUR EDUCATION SECTOR VP Brothers and Sisters, at the Close of This Academic Year, We Have Four Sector Units Bargaining New Collective Agreements
    GREETINGS FROM YOUR EDUCATION SECTOR VP Brothers and Sisters, At the close of this academic year, we have four sector units bargaining new collective agreements. This includes the Gabriel Dumont Institute, Northlands College, all the Regional Colleges, and the Professional Services Bargaining Unit at Saskatchewan Polytechnic. As we start our summer vacations we need to keep in mind that this time off is a negotiated right, and that we may be called on to defend these and other collective agreement rights. The Saskatchewan Party government’s directive to reduce total compensation for all public sector workers by 3.5% includes our workplaces. Your bargaining committees are taking a strong stand to resist this directive during bargaining. Members can help by participating in solidarity activities in order to send a message to our employers that we will not accept pay cuts and takeaways—and we support our bargaining team. A strong united stand is the only way to ensure that management and the government get this message. This month we ask that you participate in the social media selfie challenge described below. Why say no to a 3.5% cut? Government financial mismanagement is the cause of our current budget deficit— not the frontline workers who provide quality public services and perform important functions in our educational institutions. So why are we expected to pay to fix it? I hope you have a safe and relaxing vacation break—and remember to attend any rallies or demonstrations in your area that will send the message to our government that cuts to the public sector and public services are not acceptable.

This research was only accomplished due to the support and love of some key individuals. I’m grateful to you all. I want to give my deepest thanks to my best friend and my biggest support, my wife Krista. Along with my daughters Tianna and Tiegan, they have helped me and put up with me through the process of this education. I can’t thank you enough, but I will never stop trying. I also wish to express deep gratitude to Dr. Wilbur Stone for believing in me as a student, but also as a fellow worker in the Kingdom we serve. Without your belief in me, I could not have accomplished this journey. You are a change agent and I am proof. My deepest appreciation also goes to Dr. Sam Rima for being one of the greatest educational facilitators from whom I have had the pleasure to learn. Your deep commitment to innovation has caused me to research this project in order to change the direction of the church globally.
