This is a call for papers for the upcoming annual meeting of the Canadian Baptist Historical Society (CBHS).
While the CBHS is primarily focused on Canadian Baptist history, papers will be considered on the history of other Baptist communities worldwide. The deadline for paper proposals is 1 December 2018. Please send by email a 200 word summary of the proposed paper and a CV to Gordon Heath (address below).
The annual meeting will take place on 13 April 2019 at Tyndale University College and Seminary (3377 Bayview Ave, North York, ON).
The CBHS traces its origins back to the nineteenth century when Baptists passionate about their heritage began a process of preserving critical documents and studying the Baptist presence in Ontario and Quebec. Its primary focus is on the history of all Baptists in the Canadian context, but the study of Baptists around the globe is also a part of its mandate. Scholars, pastors, students and those interested in Baptist history are all warmly invited to attend meetings of the society.
The 2019 meeting will be held at Tyndale Seminary. Future locations will be Toronto Baptist Seminary (2020), Heritage Seminary (2021), and McMaster Divinity College (2022).
