- Administrative History
- The Church of England Deaconess and Missionary Training House was established in 1890 as a residential school to prepare women workers for Deaconess and missionary service. In 1947 the name was changed to the Anglican Women's Training College (AWTC). Anglican women from all over Canada came to Toronto to train for work in Christian Education in parishes, medical and teaching services overseas, Indian and Eskimo Residential Schools and reserves, Bishop's Messengers in western Canada, Sunday School by Post and Radio, youth and social work. The Woman's Auxiliary recruits were sent to the AWTC for missionary training for a year or less before being sent out. This was different from the three year diploma program offered to AWTC students. In 1969, the AWTC merged with the United Church's Covenent College to become the Centre for Christian Studies using the former AWTC building on Charles Street, Toronto. In 1997, the building in Toronto was sold and a decision was made to discontinue the traditional residential program in favour of the community based program and to relocate the administrative offices to Winnipeg. In July, 1998, CCS officially moved.

- Scope and Content
- Photo consists of four white people and four First Nations men in two canoes. The First Nations men are Louis and Robert MacGillivray, Henry Wilson and Henry Bloomfield.
- Besides Archdeacon MacKay, the other white people are incorrectly identified. See below. Miss Kate E. Halson is travelling in Archdeacon Mackay's canoe. Canon and Mrs. E.K. Matheson are in the other canoe.
- Notes
- Same photo as P7565-126, but people identified as Mrs. Matheson, the Rev. Canon E.K Matheson, Archdeacon J.A. Mackay, and Miss Halson.
