Greetings!
We are pleased to announce that the progam for this year’s conference of the Canadian Society of Presbyterian History has been set. Please find the list of presenters and their Papers below.
This will be a hybrid conference. We’re hoping to have as many people as possible attend in person in Room 4 of Knox College, realizing that others will join us via zoom.
