Eston College (formerly, The Full Gospel Bible Institute) was established in Eston, Saskatchewan in 1944 as The Official Missionary and Bible Training Center of the Full Gospel Missions. Young people were invited to learn and experience the grace and power of God in preparation for service on the foreign field. A merger of two church fellowships in 1953 resulted in a union of the Bible schools under the continued leadership of the Full Gospel Bible Institute. Since that decision, the Full Gospel Bible Institute has served as the training center for the Apostolic Church of Pentecost of Canada, Inc. The student enrolment grew from six in the first year to 187 in 1976-1977. In the years following, enrolment numbers averaged around 80 students.

Over time, many changes have been made to the buildings, staffing and programs to adjust the Bible College experience to suit the times. In the last decades, the context for Bible training has demanded more accountability and the response led to entering the accreditation process. In May 2007, the school’s name changed to Eston College and in 2008 the College received full accreditation status with the Association for Biblical Higher Education (ABHE). In the fall of 2012, we earned our 10-year accreditation.
