The New Theological School's vision is to train pastors who lack theological training and church planters who are called to begin a new ministry. Most of the pastors and church planters in North India lack a bachelor's or seminary level education. Churches are growing and multiplying, but pastors are under-trained. Theological education will aid in the founding of new churches and the growth of the churches through seminary graduates discipling others.
Our long-term goal is to send church planters to unreached people groups in North India. To see that vision fulfilled (see photo/slide in Gallery), and to better equip the pastors and church planters in theological and biblical understanding, God has called us to establish a school that will provide the necessary training. God has already graciously provided a facility in Kerala; however, it needs expansion.
Our immediate goal is to construct dormitories, classrooms, a dining hall, and an auditorium for use by schools, youth camps, and seminars. A four-story building costs $680,000, with each floor costing $170,000. Due to economic inflation and the need for school accreditation, we intend to complete the building in a single phase within a year. (Christian ministries in India are unable to obtain loans due to a lack of consistent income).
If God leads you to participate in this project that will impact future generations, please mail a personal or business check to Transformation 1040, P.O. Box 951, Wheaton, IL 60187 (memo Theological School Building). Thank you for your partnership in this life-changing ministry in North India.
