Associated Mennonite Biblical Seminary Summary

The following paragraph provided courtesy of wikipedia.

Associated Mennonite Biblical Seminary (AMBS) is an accredited seminary in Elkhart, Indiana, affiliated with Mennonite Church Canada and Mennonite Church USA. Associated Mennonite Biblical Seminary has roots in two former Mennonite seminaries: Goshen Biblical Seminary of the Mennonite Church and Mennonite Biblical Seminary of the General Conference Mennonite Church. Goshen Biblical Seminary at Goshen College, a Mennonite Church school in Goshen, Indiana, was one of two institutions that joined to form AMBS. Mennonite Biblical Seminary (MBS), a General Conference Mennonite Church institution in Chicago, Illinois, was the second school that became part of AMBS. The General Conference Mennonites had a history of educating pastors and church leaders which started with Wadsworth Institute (1868–1878), then Halstead Seminary (1883) the forerunner of Bethel College and Witmarsum Theological Seminary (1914–1931), part of Bluffton College. Each year about a dozen Mennonite students who were attending other Chicago schools were allowed to use Seminary apartments. In 1954 MBS worked together with Goshen Biblical Seminary to create a joint summer school for the following year. Although the Evangelical Mennonite Church, Mennonite Brethren, Evangelical Mennonite Brethren and Brethren in Christ all showed initial interest, each of these bodies ultimately opted not to pursue this type of partnership. This arrangement of two parallel schools is evident in the school’s original plural name: Associated Mennonite Biblical Seminaries. The Goshen Seminary received Association of Theological Schools accreditation in 1958 and Mennonite Biblical Seminary followed with accreditation in 1964. The Institute of Mennonite Studies (IMS) is the research and publishing arm of Associated Mennonite Biblical Seminaries.
