Established in February 1938, Bethlehem Lutheran Church (BLC) started with Sunday school classes held in a deserted store on 66th Street and 120th Avenue in 1928.In the fall of 1932, English and German church services were conducted and it quickly became apparent that a permanent home was required. The first BLC was built on the corner of 65th Street and 119th Avenue in 1934 and in 1951 a second church was built on the corner of 59th Street and 118th Avenue. In 1961 the current property was purchased and the new building was dedicated in 1963.In 1996 -1997 a new sanctuary was added. BLC has been blessed by the service of more than 15 Lutheran Pastors,numerous teachers and laypeople over the years. BLC has a close relationship with Concordia Seminary and Concordia University College of Alberta. Bethlehem Preschool, Sunday School, Bible studies, Lutheran Women’s Missionary League and Vacation Bible School are just a few of the events/activities that call BLC their home.

Calvin Christian School's vision is that all God's children are "thoroughly equipped for every good work." 2 Timothy 3:17

Woodland Christian High School was established in 1976 by a group of parents in the Cambridge area. They believed that it was their responsibility as parents and people of God to establish a school that in all of its programs would honour God by leading children to a deeper understanding of what it meant to serve God. They believed that the education of their children was their responsibility, not that of the government. The school opened it doors for the first time in September, 1976. For the first number of years it operated in a number of church facilities in the Cambridge and Kitchener-Waterloo areas. The move to the present facilities occurred in 1979. Considerable expansion and renovation took place in 2002. Woodland currently serves approximately 250 students in Grades nine to twelve.
