You are helping to sustain programs like student well-being and community care, as well as students facilities, including accommodation, classrooms and library.
Sustaining the College
As an inter-denominational college, we receive no denominational funding. By God’s grace we are sustained by new students and financial supporters, year by year.
Your gift keeps key programs running and preserves our mission for future generations. You’re helping us run:
- Our unique Missionary in Residence program
- The Missionary of the Week and Ministry Matters programs
- Community Life – Spiritual retreats, training, hospitality spaces, pastoral care
Growing the Kingdom
Our vision is to see thousands of graduates share the light of Jesus to a dark and needy world.
There’s over 2.2 billion people, more than a quarter of the world’s population, currently still without access to the good news of Jesus.
There’s an enormous ministry gap between people serving in the reached and unreached parts of the world. You are actively equipping students with a global mindset to carry the gospel where it’s most needed.
“I will make you as a light for the nations, that my salvation may reach to the end of the earth.” Isaiah 49:6
