Historical note

The Christian Heritage Library Collection was begun by David and Trudy Schellenberg of Winkler. Since they saw their collection of sermons by Mennonite bishops and ministers as a resource to the community, they chose the term "library" as part of the name for this archival collection. The collection was transferred to the Mennonite Heritage Centre in Winnipeg in 1997.

Scope and content note

This collection consists of sermons or other writings of 166 individuals, sermons with no author given which were read numerous times by a particular branch of the Mennonite church, biographies of a number of missionaries, photographs of approximately 90 of the Mennonite ministers and some miscellaneous material.
