Reverend Dr. Philip Collins, aged 88, passed away peacefully on May 31, 2019.

Collins was the Principal of Carey Hall from 1985 to his retirement in 1994. Known as a kind, faithful and discerning leader, Collins helped to solidify Carey’s mission as both a Christian residence and a theological institution. He was also a member of the faculty, serving as the Director of Field Education and helped to establish the Certificate in Ministry first for Mustard Seed Church, and then for international work in Kenya, where he travelled to teach with other faculty members.

"每天,我走過Phil的照片,旁邊掛著其他過去的校長和總統,Ernest Runions,Roy Bell和Brian Stelck。我想起他在帶領Carey渡過繁榮和困難的時期方面堅強而勇敢的領導。我與Carey的員工和教職員工一起,為在Phil説明奠定的基礎基礎上再接再厲而感到謙卑,"Carey Hall校長兼克里威廉神學院院長Collin Godwin博士說。

Collins was committed to strengthening the pastorate, particularly for the Baptist Union of Western Canada (now the Canadian Baptists of Western Canada). He served as the BC Area Minister for 9 years prior to his appointment as Principal of Carey. He was the first Director of the Graduate Internship Program (GIP), a program that pastors were required to complete prior to appearing before the denomination’s Ordination Examining Council.

“As an educator, pastor and mentor, Phil Collins had an incredible impact on shaping the next generation of leaders of the Canadian Baptists of Western Canada (formerly BUWC), of which I am one. I’m incredibly grateful for his love for the church and the practical ways he taught his students. On behalf of our entire denomination, I say thank you to Phil for his years of service and dedication. We mourn his death, and we celebrate his welcome into his heavenly home,” said Rev. Rob Ogilvie, Executive Minister of the Canadian Baptists of Western Canada.

The memorial service will be held at Bethany Baptist Church, 22680 Westminster Hwy, Richmond, BC on Tuesday, June 18 at 2:00 PM.
