Vijay Paul says, “ I have never seen a community (such as SAIACS) where people from diff erent ethnic and language groups gather together to have fellowship.”
Binoy Chacko for whom this was the first experience in a theological school, says, “the SAIACS community is very warm and welcoming, the first Sunday sermon on Joshua by Dr. Babu Immanuel was very encouraging and the welcome session from our Cellgroup on the first Friday was most enjoyable.”
Students are also greatly impressed by the academic standards of SAIACS.
Shantiram Solanki from Madhya Pradesh thanks God for bringing him to SAIACS. He says, “Within a month I could experience tremendous changes, especially in the area of studies, and the family experience at SAIACS is most attractive.”
Mrs. Hannah Terang almost gave up her studies when she found the standards of education expected at SAIACS were very high. She says, “the encouragement from my husband, friends and teaching faculty and above all, God’s presence with me is pushing me on to complete my studies and not give up.”
Mothi Mary,feels there is so much to learn and experience at SAIACS. Though it is quite early in her learning experience, she concludes that SAIACS is “the best place for academicians who want to broaden their Christian vision.”

The well-qualified faculty of SAIACS impresses Peter Thein Nyunt. He hopes that his stay here would deepen his religious opinions and shape him up for the ministry.
