Colegio Biblico — Organization Profile
Colegio Biblico is a Spanish-speaking Bible college and ministry training school preparing workers for Christian ministry among Hispanic and Spanish-speaking communities. The school describes its purpose as preparing workers for ministry in the Spanish-speaking world and providing an integral education for Christian ministry. Its training is focused on students preparing for preaching, teaching, evangelism, pastoral leadership, and service in local churches.
Colegio Biblico is based in Eagle Pass, Texas, with a second campus in Piedras Negras, Coahuila, Mexico. The school serves students from the United States, Mexico, Latin America, and the wider Spanish-speaking world. Its location on both sides of the U.S.–Mexico border allows students to study in Eagle Pass or Piedras Negras, including students who may not be able to obtain visas for study in the United States.
The school was founded in 1945 by Harland Cary and his wife, Frances, after they saw the need for biblical and ministry training among Spanish-speaking communities. Colegio Biblico later expanded its work in Mexico, and its official materials state that in 1996 it began operating on both sides of the border. This binational campus structure remains one of the school’s key distinctives.
Colegio Biblico offers academic programs designed to prepare Spanish-speaking leaders for preaching, Bible teaching, Christian education, and vocational ministry. Its listed programs include Christian Education, Sacred Literature, Ministerial Science, and Theology. The school also provides core classes and course materials intended to form students in Bible knowledge, theology, ministry practice, and Christian service.
The school combines classroom education with practical ministry involvement. Its official materials describe Christian service through local ministries in churches in Texas and Mexico, evangelism in ministry fields, camps, youth conventions, preaching, music, and drama. Colegio Biblico also lists ministries connected with church planting, orphanages, radio and television, nursing homes, medical clinics, Bible colleges, and local church ministries.
People can engage with Colegio Biblico by applying as a student, supporting scholarships, giving financially, praying for students and staff, attending events, reading school news, or contacting the Eagle Pass or Piedras Negras campuses. The school’s scholarship information notes that churches and individuals help make ministerial education more accessible, including through work-study support for students preparing for Christian ministry.
