FROM THE PRINCIPAL
Thank
you for your interest in SAIACS. We’ve got lots to be excited and
thankful about.
Our vision is that “With God’s help and our commitment to
evangelical faith, our vision is to be a world-class post-graduate theological
institution in South Asia, greatly serving the mission of the Church of
Jesus Christ globally.”
One of the exciting things we have done since March is collaboratively
plan what SAIACS will look like in three years. It has been remarkable
how motivational this has been. We are all beginning to know how our part
fits in towards that larger goal. Towards this end, we are excited to
announce that SAIACS is launching two new MA degrees – in Urban
Ministry and in Management. Both are cutting-edge practitioner degrees
for missional people. If you know people who are looking to upgrade their
skills in these areas, make sure you tell them.
Master of Arts in Urban Ministry:
Over 300 million people in India live in cities, yet most urban churches
still use village outreach methods. Students who take our Master of Arts
in Urban Ministry will be equipped to understand and effectively reach
cities with the good news of Jesus. They’ll discover the promise
of workplace cell groups, house churches and targeted ministries. They’ll
gain ministry internship experience with an urban Christian leader as
their supervisor and reflect theologically on real situations as they
experience them.
Master of Arts in Management:
Many Christian leaders wish they could strengthen their management skills
for running a Christian organisation. In addition, since business is the
new mission frontier, many Christians want to learn how to be missional
in the marketplace. The new Master of Arts in Management serves both goals,
blending credible management skills and biblically Christian thinking
for the South Asian commercial environment. These students will gain management
internship experience with an established Christian manager as their supervisor.
They’ll learn how stewardship and business skills can serve the
mission of God.
Campus Development:
Our four-unit family apartment project has commenced construction. We
are excited that we will soon be able to offer this much-needed additional
accommodation for faculty and student use.
Please continue to pray for students and staff that we will be faithful
to the goal that God has put before us. Pray that His dream of greatness
will fill our horizon.
Blessings,
Dr. Ian Payne
