Greetings From Past Presidents Rev. Everett L. McKinneyPresident 1977- 1984

I am greatly honored to greet you as we celebrate the Golden Anniversary of APTS. The leadership of the national churches of the Asia Pacific region expressed the need for a school to be established to assist pastors and workers to complete degree programs beyond the three-year Bible institutes scattered throughout the region. It was a small, but important, beginning when founding President Harold Kohl welcomed six students to study the first trimester.

No one could have imagined the development of APTS over the next fifty years. The original purpose of providing high quality training has been an anchor guiding the seminary in developing degree programs to meet the changing needs of the Asia Pacific region and beyond. As the national churches and Bible schools advanced to where they could meet their needs at a given level, the leadership of APTS proudly handed over degree and ministry programs to them. APTS was able to creatively develop higher level degrees and programs to further meet their needs.

I congratulate the Board of Directors, administrators, faculty and staff for the team effort that has earned APTS a reputation as one of the leading seminaries in the region.

Pauls appeal to Timothy in 2 Timothy 2:2 has been an admonition not taken lightly by all involved in pouring their lives into the students the Holy Spirit has led to walk the halls of APTS over the last 50 years: And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable people who will also be qualified to teach others.

We are so thankful to the Lord for the many hundreds of graduates serving as presidents, deans and faculty of many fine colleges and schools in many nations, and as pastors, church planters, missionaries, and church workers who serve in many nations of the world.

Keep up the excellent work. Congratulations for a job well done. Everett L. McKinney

Dr. David LimPresident 1987- 1989

The challenge of APTS has always been to the Regions Beyond. We need to understand the missionary heart of Father God who sent Jesus to incarnate in this sinful world that would reject Him in order to reach the unreached for Jesus. But to do this APTS has sought to challenge leaders to go to the regions beyond:

Our comfort zones. We have a temptation to get stuck in a rut, to be comfortable with our present roles of ministry, to seek financial stability, dignity, and to do Gods work in familiar territory.

Our present intellectual growth. APTS was meant to challenge our thinking, to break down presuppositions that do not hold up to the tests of biblical truth, to have the tools that would help us be true students of the Word, to hear the ringing, life-changing truths of God, and to communicate them to others.

Our methodology. Every nation is going through major upheavals in culture and perspective. A younger generation may not tune in to older ways of communication. There are many unreached people groups that may not be reached with traditional methodology. We must seek the wind of the Spirit to help us creatively find new ways to share the gospel.

Our abilities. Human abilities will never change the world for God. We need Holy Spirit power. That means an undying hunger for God, a consistent prayer life, and learning to step out in faith.

Past successes. Over 50 years APTS has trained many of the top leaders in over 20 countries. We were training Asians to impact Asia. But we cannot rest there. This new generation needs to dream bigger dreams, climb higher mountains, and claim more territory for Jesus! May God bless APTS in greater ways than ever to meet the increasing populations of Asia.

David Lim

Dr. John F. CarterPresident 1996- 2004

It is a joy for me to offer greetings in this Jubilee edition of the APTS Chalice. My own involvement with APTS began over 20 years ago and has continued until now in a variety of roles. During these years I have had the pleasure of seeing the seminary develop in many significant ways including the construction of outstanding facilities, creation of new academic programs and contribution to the advancement of Pentecostal theology and mission through its journal and other publications, and the annual William Menzies Lectureship.

APTS was founded with the purpose of educating leaders who would be in the forefront of the expansion of the Pentecostal movement throughout the region. Today, we celebrate the

seminarys accomplishments over its first 50 years. Hundreds of pastors, Bible school leaders and missionaries have graduated from APTS and gone on to

significant ministries in their own nations and around the world. Indeed, there is hardly a Bible school in Asia Pacific that lacks an APTS alumnus

as an administrator or faculty member, and many of the largest churches in the region are pastored by an APTS alumnus.

As you, the class of 2014, join their ranks as our Jubilee graduates, we are confident God will continue to lead you in the fulfillment of the vision for service and ministry that He has given

you, and we, the board, administration and faculty of APTS, are pleased to have played a part in your preparation! As you go, never forget the motto of APTS Zeal with Knowledge. Let

zeal empower and drive you forward, but let your zeal be tempered by your knowledge so your ministry will be effective and sustainable through the challenges that you will

undoubtedly face. My earnest prayer is for God to richly bless your lives and ministries!

John F. Carter

Dr. Wayne CaglePresident 2004- 2009

Congratulations President Yee Tham Wan, APTS Board, Administration, Faculty, Staff, Student

Body and Alumni on the occasion of this 50th Anniversary celebration of Asia Pacific Theological

Seminary from 1964 to 2014.

As you celebrate this anniversary, we join you in giving thanks to God for this seminary and the thousands of

students who have been trained in theology, missions, practical ministries and Pentecostal studies. We rejoice in

Gods goodness, in the alumni who have gone all over the world serving as leaders, teachers, pastors, evangelists and missionaries. Zeal with Knowledge has been

the guiding theme under Gods leadership and provision.

I count it the privilege of a lifetime to have had the opportunity to attend APTS as a student, teach as a member of the faculty, serve on the Board, and lead as President from 2004- 2009. I was constantly aware of the legacy

we had received from leaders, donors, supporters, organizations and churches who faithfully assisted in the vision and ministry of APTS. We stood on the shoulders of those who went before us in leadership and godly wisdom.

May God continue to anoint all those who participate in the ministry of APTS in this 21st century and guide the seminary in new areas of development. May God continue to bless APTS as more workers are trained and sent out into the Harvest Fields of the world until Jesus comes!

Wayne Cagle


From the President jubilee Chalice

This Is the Year of Jubilee! That is the title of our theme song for the 2014 APTS Jubilee celebrations.

We actually started this Jubilee journey in September 2009 when we adopted the four-pronged 2014 Jubilee Vision of (1) 200 students; (2) 14 qualified faculty; (3) a prayer mountain; and, (4) a debt-free status.

We have fulfilled items number (3) and (4) already. We have a beautiful

prayer mountain that we continue to develop, and we are now officially

debt-free as well. Praise the Lord! We still have items number (1) and (2) and we are praying that in the course of the 2014-2015 school year,

we will see these come to pass as well.

Jubilee is a time of freedom a time to rejoice, to give thanks and to

celebrate. Jubilee is not just a once-in-fifty-years event. It is an everyday

attitude a lifestyle. We are commanded to rejoice in the Lord always (1Thess. 5:16; Phil. 4:4) and to give thanks in everything (1Thess. 5:18).

This celebratory lifestyle of joy and thanksgiving is possible when we are

in the Lords will. When the prodigal son returned home, the father said,

. . . we had to celebrate . . . If we are where God wants us to be, it is easy to celebrate.

The APTS graduands this year are a very special batch because their commencement exercises coincide with the Jubilee celebrations. They have so much to be thankful for. They have so many reasons to rejoice.

So, I say to them: Go out and celebrate your calling and your ministry!

Hallelujah!

The work of preparing this Chalice for the 50th year of APTS has focused on two sets of themes. First, we

wanted to present a Chalice that looks back to our

heritage and looks forward to where we are going.

We trust that we have accomplished this objective,

particularly in the timeline, the greetings from current

and former presidents of the seminary, updates on

graduates, and future plans of current students, as

well as our theme of growing that is woven through this Chalice.

The second set of themes was a bit more complicated to present. We began by trying to organize the Chalice into three cleanly-divided sections that would demonstrate the three-fold character of APTS: International, Pentecostal,

and Missional. We very quickly realized that it is

not possible to divide the experiences of being a student, faculty member, or staff member at APTS

into three neat categories. In truth, the entire

atmosphere of APTSacademic, spiritual, socialis

beautifully colored by all three of these aspects. The International-Pentecostal-Missional nature of APTS is what continues to draw students and faculty from all over the world. With gratitude to our Lord and a healthy sense of pride, we think there is no place on

earth like APTS.

May this Chalice bless and encourage you as you remember what God has done through APTS over the last 50 years, and look with courage and hope

toward all that He will do in and through us in the coming years.

MISSIONAL

The Year of Jubilee!

Rev. Yee Tham WanPresident


The Jubilee year in Israels history was a time of release of captives, cancelling of debts, and rejoicing in Gods goodness and faithfulness. For

APTS we have much for which we can thank God. Over the last forty-nine

years His faithfulness and goodness have been constantly seen in the school. Obstacles have been faced and overcome. The school has grown,

both physically, and I believe in the spiritual realm, and the effect that its

graduates have in the nations of Asia Pacific will only be fully understood

when we all get to heaven.

It is my great joy to be the Academic Dean at this significant time in the

seminarys history. While we have so much to be grateful for, we also have

exciting and awesome challenges ahead. Remaining relevant in a fast-changing world is a key to the ongoing success of the school. But

remaining true to God in a highly secularised world is an even more important key.

As we move forward into the next 50 years, may we not only maintain that academic excellence

which is the hallmark of the seminary but also maintain a passionate spirituality which is so vital to

success in ministry. May we continue to impart to students, not only the truths of Gods word, but

the passion for God Himself, which is what fires all significant spiritual accomplishments.

We cannot afford to rest on past achievements, but must push on to greater and more significant

ones. The whole world still needs Jesus, and we are here to train people who can take Jesus not

only to the geographical ends of the earth, but to the depths and heights of society. My prayer is

that graduates from APTS will be found ministering the gospel in every strata of society, in every nation of the

region, faithfully fulfilling Gods mandate to make disciples until He comes.

From the Academic Dean From the Dean Of Students

Congratulations to the Class of 2014! It is a joy to see each of you come this far and then commence the next phase of the LORDs purposes and

plans for your life. As I look over the graduating Class of 2014, I am thrilled

to see those who are concerned about the unreached, the marginalized,

the hungry, and the forgotten. I am excited to see others enter into the

ministry of discipleship, teaching, and pastoring. In order that missio dei find completion and fulfillment we need to make sure that we begin well. Rev.

Everett McKinney preached a powerful message encouraging us to finish

well. We also must begin well.

When we commence various phases of life, the beginning can have a rocky

start. How can we begin the ministry or the call of God for our lives with a sense of wholeness and success? There are several things that will help us

to begin well, which will also help us to finish well. My encouragement to you is to have a growing

relationship with the LORD. Moreover, there are three ingredients that will help us to always begin

well and maintain our spirituality throughout life.

The most essential ingredient to beginning well is a strong relationship with the Word. Life is to be founded upon the Word. The Word is a spiritual source that preserves stability, strength, and

sustenance. Another fundamental ingredient to beginning well is prayer conversation with the LORD.

Prayer means that in talking with the LORD there is peace, power, and presence. When there are

tough spiritual battles prayer will carry us through to joy, gladness, and put a new song in our spirit.

Finally, the third ingredient to help us begin well is establishing a strong and growing relationship

with the body of Christ. Not only should there be a healthy and growing relationship with the LORD, but the

follower of the Lord must cultivate relationships with one another. This cultivation helps strengthen us, helps

us endure, and holds together the body of Christ. In addition, the body of

Christ will shine forth the grace, love, and power of the LORD to the

entire world. The follower of Christ who commits to these ingredients at the beginning of ministry will finish well!

Class of 2014, my wife and I are confident of the power of the Holy

Spirit that resides in your lives; and you will make a difference in this

world filled with sin, strife, and sickness!

Update from the fieldHighlighting the current ministries of four APTS Graduates

I am currently teaching in the capital city of Nepal at Nepal Theological College, one of the very few colleges with accredited programs in the country. We offer a Diploma of Theology program in Nepali and a Bachelor of Theology program in English. I teach courses for both programs. I am also a regular speaker at differ-ent churches. APTSs training is the only biblical academic train-ing I have received thus far; and although I do strongly feel the need for further education, the training at APTS has enabled me to be in this teaching ministry at present that I believe God has called me to.

Amar Pandey, 2008

At APTS I learned many things about management, discipline, integrity, administration and leadership through the professors by having good relationships with them. Since I graduated, I have established an Assemblies of God Bible school in Quetta by the grace of God. Secondly, I have established a secular mission secondary school for under-privileged people of our church and community. In addition, Assemblies of God Church Drigh Road, which I have pastored for over thirty years, is planning to open a retirement home and orphanage in our locality. I be-lieve APTS played a great role in my character building and academic pursuit. Now, I am 55 years old and am serving my country as a pastor, Bible teacher, theologically-equipped leader, counselor, and princi-pal. God has richly blessed me with APTS friends and profes-sors who support me with their prayers and genuine concern.

Pastor Zia Paul, 2001

While our primary job here in Mongolia is teaching children in a secular school, God continuously provides opportunities for us to share his love and his message with the future leaders of Mongolia. I am also able to apply my studies more directly as I minister at the Mongolia Assemblies of God Bible Training Center, teaching the future spiritual leaders of the country. We are able to be part of the growing Christian church here, and everything we learned at APTS about mis-sions, ministry, history, theology, education and more has created a solid foundation for our continued work in the region.

Roger and Glenda Dutcher, 2010

Presently, I serve in Bible school ministry with my father where I am involved in administration, student counseling and teaching. APTS has greatly impacted my life. It gave me a special love for people which enabled me to love the Paki-stani people. I learned through the lives of the professors and fellow students to depend totally on God. Thats why today I am serving God in a very difficult area of our coun-try named Quetta.

Rebecca Paul, 2012

APTS Graduates, 1964-2014Total Graduates: 1,166 from

44 different countries

We have had students from all over Asia, the Pacific Islands, Australia, New Zealand, Europe, Africa, and North America. For the past 50 years APTS graduates have been sharing the love of Christ and building the Kingdom of God virtually

all over the world.

Pastor Zia and Rebecca Paul are a father-daughter team operating a Bible school, or-phanage and church.

Roger and Glenda are teaching in a secular school as well as equipping future leaders at Mongolia AG

Bible Training Center.

Amar is serving as a Bible school teacher and traveling minister.

Melody and Chester are operating Faith Mission Center and working alongside the local church.

My husband, parents and I started International Faith Missions Center in Davao, where we accommodate missionaries and pas-tors and organize missions teams from Taiwan and Korea. We also have a preaching ministry and conduct seminars in churches, and recently we started working with a pioneering A/G church. Lastly, our team is starting a self-sufficient farm to support our ministries.Because of the intercultural environment at APTS, it is easier for me to adapt to Mindanao culture. I am able to use the methods that I learned at APTS, to organize missions teams, prepare ser-mons and seminars, and to have effective time management.

Mitchelle has a burden for the young men and women of Sri Lanka who have a call to serve in rural areas. Many of these areas are hostile to openly Christian ministries. Mitchelle plans to return home after graduation to serve in a training program which provides basic biblical knowledge and life skills training (pre-school teaching, sewing, baking, English, computer literacy), so that young church planters will be valuable assets to their communities as they follow Gods call to plant churches.

I learned a lot both in and outside the classroom, academically and practically. APTS has made me confident to attempt greater things for God in my nation!

Isaac has a burden for the integration of churches and primary/secondary education in Asian countries. He has a desire to see churches and schools raised up that will train authentic disciples of Jesus who are unstoppable witnesses empowered by the Holy Spirit. If God permits and provides, Isaac would like to study education at a doctoral level in the future.

APTS has been a place of great growth for Isaac. Most of all, I learned the importance of the Word of God and prayer to transform my spirit, soul, heart, mind and will. Without this, I realize that I cannot live a holy life for Gods glory or preach the Word of God in a way that will touch spirits and transform lives.

Pastor Analyn currently serves as a church planter and pastor of Jesus Harvest Assembly

in Manaoag, Pangasinan, Philippines. She also serves as registrar and faculty at Harvest

of Jubilee Bible College in Northern Luzon, Philippines. Her future plans for ministry are focused

on planting churches and training/mentoring leaders who will impact their own societies and generations.

APTS shaped my life and impacted my ministry tremendously, such as providing sound Pentecostal foundations, dynamic spiritual formation, and relevant and strategic approaches in ministry.

The Pentecostal movement is growing powerfully in Stephens country, but a ministry of teaching that is Bible-based and Christ-centered has not been growing at the same rate. Stephen feels a great burden to return to his home city after graduation and engage in a ministry of teaching, both in his home church and in a Bible school setting.

I have been educated by the lectureships, I have been enriched and nurtured by beloved professors, and I have been empowered by chapel and other worship services. Now I am ready to reenter my practical mission field with a clear understanding of zeal with knowledge.

Classroom LibraryNothing exemplifies the International, Pentecostal, and Missional aspects of APTS like the classroom experience.

INTERNATIONAL: With students from about 20 countries and faculty from more than 12 countries, APTS students gain an international perspective on ministry and build lifelong relationships that span the globe.

PENTECOSTAL: The professors are academically qualified men and women who are filled with the Holy Spirit and sensitive to His leading in their ministry of teaching. Quite literally, the classroom is the classroom of the Holy Spirit.

MISSIONAL: With faculty who have years of on-the-ground ministry experience and a student body coming directly from local church ministries and positions of leadership, the command to make disciples of all nations drives the learning environment of APTS.

The APTS library is one of the largest theological collections in the Philippines. Our library staff are knowledgeable and helpful. Apart from the huge book collection (over 50,000 volumes), online access to journals, and other electronic data makes the library an ideal place from which to do research in theology, biblical studies, ministry or missions.

The library is

indispensable

in my studies

and it is truly

Gods abundant

blessing.

- Daniel, Northern Asia

The library has never let me down. I always find more than I need for my research and the most important authors are

always included. Darin Clements, USA/Cambodia

I love the APTS library! There

are tons of booksalways more

than enough for me to write my

papers with! I also appreciate

the atmosphere, which

encourages concentration and

Classroom discussions with students from so many different backgrounds are an amazing experience for me.

Solimar Conceja, Philippines

Hearing about Pentecostal expressions in many different nations is very exciting to me. It is a unique experience I can get only at APTS.

Kham Sian Khai, Myanmar

What is next for Pentecostals? It is all about education.

Dr. Kim Eun Chul, South Korea

It is very precious to me to have the chance to develop inter-cultural relation-ships and to learn different cultures. I learn a lot from my classmates lives.

The goal of the APTS Press and the Asian Journal of Pentecostal Studies is to provide a place for academic, theological, missiological and pastoral reflection by Asians and others working in Asia on the issues impacting the Church in the Asia Pacific and Pacific Oceana regions of the world. In 2013, the Journal published two editions that dealt with a biblical response to social concerns. In 2014, we are publishing an edition dedicated to the Jubilee theme in celebrating APTS 50th anniversary. In 2013, APTS Press published the disserta-tions of Dr. Dave Johnson and Dr. Russ Turney, the regional director for the Assemblies of God World Missions USA. In 2014, the Press may publish as many as four books, including one that explores a new approach to reaching the members of the Philippine cult, the Igesia ni Cristo, for the real and living Christ.

The Extension Program of APTS offers world-class ministerial and theological graduate

education to students all over the region. The faculty is made up of an outstanding group of

educators from both the APTS faculty and visiting professors from Asia and the United States.

APTS currently has extension sites in Fiji, Samoa, Bangkok, Taiwan and Myanmar with the potential for more sites opening up

in 2014. Online courses will also be available in June 2014.

I am a firm believer in the extension program of APTS. I have been privileged to be a part of this program for 37 years. It is so rewarding to see the development of this ministry, which now makes it possible for leaders to complete much of their graduate level work by extension.Everett L. McKinney, Former President and Extension Coordinator

I completed my M.A. through the extension site in Bangkok and now I am finishing my M.Div. on campus. The professors that came to teach were excellent. The extension program gave me the chance to start on my advanced studies without leaving my place of ministry. Darin Clements, USA/Cambodia

In 13 years I have taught 12 courses at seven sites in six countries in the program. I am impressed with the great service that the Extension Program of APTS offers throughout the Asia Pacific Region. It is a great outreach which allows students to get their M.A. degrees without ever leaving their home country. I, as a professor, along with the many students who have received their theological education by extension, say Thank you to APTS for offering such an effective educational program! Dr. Galen Hertweck, Extension Coordinator

APTS Extensions

Annual LectureshipDr. Tim Bulkeley sought to enrich our picture language of God with a close look at the motherly language found in Scripture and how the church has used it throughout history. Picture language is always dangerous, he says, because no human language is adequate to speak of God, who is sui generis (unique, of its own sort). The motherly language about God in Scripture tells us not to limit our understanding of God to a certain group of people (male or female, Western or Asian). To view God as anything other than God alone (Dt. 6:4) is to make God a god, one who is inadequate to meet all our needs, including those which are not covered by the picture of God as father.

The lectureship was challenging and thought-provoking. Angelita Mangosan, Philippines

Dr. Bulkeley brought back to memory that God is much more than a father and shows himself to us as mother and redeemer throughout the Bible. Kevin Tucker, USA

Chalice 2014 37APTS 36 Chinese Leaders Training Program

The Chinese Leaders Training Program was started in 2010 by President Yee Tham Wan and Ngoh Moon Tee. Joe and Lana Liu now lead the program which sees 20-30 students coming to the campus in July and August for seven weeks of encouragement and training. Their passion for their nation made a great impression on everyone this year as they sang and shared their testimonies in chapel services.

Institute of Islamic Studies

Rev. Michael Langford, directorfor more than a decade of the six-week Institute of Islamic Studies, has helped equip over 400 workers from 40 nations representing over 20 mission agencies. Instructors are outstanding scholars in the Islamic faith, and missionaries from around the world. This year IIS will be held in conjunction with MTI.

Asian Institute of Youth Studies

The Asian Institute of Youth Studies is a 10 day joint program of Asia Pacific Campus Challenge and APTS designed to raise up Pentecostal youth workers to reach the over 300 million high school and college aged youth in the region. The 2012 program featured both Campus and Youth Ministry tracks and featured the greatest number of participants yet over 100 attendees repre-senting about 20 nations. The next AIYS is scheduled for May 2015.

Missionary Training Institute

Missionary Training Institute (MTI) is a six-week program coordinated by Dr. Sam Bowdoin to accelerate the cross-cultural learning process. Participants acquire the skills necessary to develop new, creative, and contextualized ministries in an ever-changing global environment. The MTI in April-May 2014 will include sessions with Dr. Sam Bowdoin, Dr. Kevin Hovey, Drs. Weldyn and Barbara Houger, Rev. Hiro Yoshihara, and Rev. Shellie Bowdoin.

Institute of Church Action on Poverty Studies

The Institute of Church Action on Poverty Studies (ICAPS) was started in 2013 by Dr. Joel Tejedo to provide biblical foundations, contextual models, and innovative approaches that address the many images of poverty in the global context. This intensive training program empowers community development workers, NGOs, and church planters to bring just and caring transformation to individuals and communities.

Christian Counseling Program

The Christian Counseling Program, led by Dr. Evelyn Biles, is offered annually in partnership with Trevecca Nazarene Universi-ty in Nashville, TN, USA. Dr. Peter Wilson and Dr. Susan Lahey together with their Ph.D. in Counseling students were on campus in October 2013 to teach the course Crisis Counseling and Counseling with Families and Teens/Children. Students also had the opportunity to receive counseling services from the Trevecca team.

English Language ProgramThe English Language Program is the gateway to APTS for many students. We had 25-30 students in the ELP each term this year, including students from Korea, Mongolia, Bangladesh, China, Taiwan, Myanmar, Japan, and Cambodia. Earning an advanced degree in ones second (or third) language is not easy, but the access to the vast amount of English language scholarship is well worth the effort. We have the greatest respect for those who have overcome the English language barrier in obedience to Gods direction for them to come to APTS.

I really enjoy studying with American teachers. They are very encouraging and make learning grammar interesting.- Ruth Yun Hee Cha, Korea

I only had basic English when I came to APTS. The ELP helped me to develop my reading and communication skills so that I could start my M.Div. with confidence. Kham Sian Khai, Myanmar

ELP Teachers and Assistants:Stephen, Donna Arukua, Yuri Nakagawa, Dianna Clements, Jeffrey Puckett,

Debbie Johnson, Lindsay Crabtree, Dickie Hertweck

Our goal is to bring the loving commitment and ministry of Christ into the English language classroom in order to give the students the courage and ability to study regular APTS courses in English as quickly as possible.

- Rev. Debbie Johnson, Program Director, USA

I love having the opportunity to teach English and equip future leaders, pastors, and missionaries with the very fundamental skills and tools they need to succeed at APTS. Lindsay Crabtree, ELP Teacher, USA


Nothing exemplifies the missional focus of APTS like Field Education. All M.Div. students are required to complete a ten to twelve week field-based internship. This year APTS students served in the Czech Republic, the Philippines, Samoa, Singapore, Switzerland, and the United States. Areas of ministry included pastoral ministries, teaching in Bible schools, business as mission, and community development.

Field Education Impact Teams

Pastor Alapati Avealalo (Samoa, M.Div.) conducted his field education in business as mission. His sewing and fashion shop is already supporting him to teach at the Bible school. He has a vision to see it grow and impact his community by cultivating a strong Christian atmosphere in the workplace and by employing people so that they can support themselves and tithe to their churches.

Sunil Singh (Nepal, M.Div.) and his wife Saru spent eight weeks at Trinity Christian Center in Singapore where they were exposed to almost every area of church ministry and had the opportunity to learn how a cell-based church functions.

Pastor Lucy Callena (Philippines, M.Div.) conducted her field education with the Foursquare Gospel Church in several different locations on Luzon Island, Philippines. She was the principal of a Vacation Bible School program, helped to administer a youth camp, taught at two Bible school extensions, and served as an interim pastor in Baguio City for four months. The highlight of Pastor Lucys field education was seeing many parents of the children in the VBS program give their hearts to Christ on graduation day.

Following the missional focus of APTS, teams of students, coordinated by Dr. Joel and Carol Tejedo, reach out to those in need in the community as well as in the nation.

Barbara de la Cruz leads a team of 10 APTS students to teach values education and share the love of Jesus every Monday to all seven grades at Lamut Elementary School, a public school near the APTS campus.

APTS students are involved with a weekly feeding program and Bible study with the children in Lower Rock Quarry, a neighborhood in Baguio City.

Students also minister in chapel services twice a month at the Baguio city jail and at the Benguet provincial jail in partnership with International Praise Center.

Typhoon YolandaThe Philippines was devastated by the largest typhoon in recorded history on November 8, 2013. APTS students and faculty fasted and prayed for the victims and sent offerings to help with the overwhelming relief effort. Dr. Joel Tejedo and his wife Carol organized a team of students who went to Telegrafo, Tacloban City, Leyte from December 12- 17 to reach out to those in need. They distributed food and relief goods as well as brought the hope and encouragement that only comes from Jesus Christ.

Our team finished our mission with

a great sense of fulfillment as we

saw smiles on the faces of the people

who had lost so much. I dont know when I will be given another opportunity

to go back there, but I believe that

Tacloban City will someday be restored

because of the great revival that is

happening now in that place.

-Chona Baniwas,

Ministry at Lamut Elementary School has been one of my highlights while here at APTS! We pray that the lessons about God, His Word, and His love, will work their way deep into their hearts, and that the children will remember them as they grow, committing their lives to Christ!- Deanna Richardson, USA/Thailand

Chapel services are one of my favorite aspects of the APTS campus mainly because of the felt presence of the Lord Jesus Christ as we corporately worship Him. Sherry

APTS Chapel is an integral part of community life and probably the most effective barometer of ones spiritual life on campus. It provides a balance between the Pentecostal identity against the academic and scholarly identity of the campus life. It continually connects students back to the place where they heard the call of God for a life of ministry and the reason for the current season in their lives. The Hurst Chapel is a witness to the many commitments that are birthed in peoples lives as God meets them during chapel time.

Scheduled during the first trimester, the Spiritual Emphasis week jumpstarts another season on the campus. The excitement that comes with the new school year is given direction as both students and teachers alike set apart time for reflection and dedication to the call of God. During this week,

God reminded me that I am called to serve a God with limitless possibilities. The cross before me, the world and the past behind; no looking back, and no turning back. - Jeffrey Puckett, USA

the Lord moved in our midst in a powerful way and we were met with His presence.

Rev. Paul Wolfenden, a senior minister from Australia, was invited to minister the word of God during this special time. He shared with simplicity and humility and the Lord moved through him with profound authority.

Missions Conference is one of the highlights of the school year as it culminates with

International Night. Special speakers are invited to provide a current perspective on missions to serve as a reminder of

the pressing urgency of living out the Great Commission. This event is enriched with the countless dedication of students

committing to a life in the mission field.

Centered around an opportune theme A Time for Harvest Rev. Simon Longden from Pioneers Australia challenged the students to reconsider their priority, purpose, people, posture

and perseverance in the harvest.

International Night displays the multicultural identity of APTS as it portrays the many tribes and nations represented within the community on campus. It is not just an opportunity to see and feel, but also to experience the taste of various cultural cuisines prepared by this international community. It is a glimpse of the beauty and rich culture of varied peoples and nations, reminding the students of the responsibility they carry to see the gospel preached and lived out among the nations.

In my 10 years of involvement with my APTS family, it is one night in the calendar not to be missed. There is a sense that night whereby people are confident and comfortable under their own skin, colour and frame and show off Gods creation. - Makisua Fatialofa, New Zealand

Selah Worship

Prayer Mountain

Set on the high side of a mountain overlooking the beautiful skyline of the Cordilleras, the prayer mountain provides a place of serenity and solace to encounter God. It is a place where faculty and students alike, disappear to be alone with God amidst the demanding activities all around. For many it is a battleground where concerns about the present and the future are settled before the Lord and a place where needs are met in His presence. Surrounded by the sheer magnificence of His creation, it is a place that sticks close to the heart of everyone who visits it.

A time of rest in a place of surrender. Selah is a one-night event every trimester where students, faculty and missionaries come together for a glorious time of worship and encouragement. Songs, poems, short messages and testimonies are shared in an open-mic atmosphere to encourage one another and to allow God to remind each person of the very basic reasons why we are all here on the campus.

Selah Worship is not only a time of powerful worship but a time God speaks to many through words of prophecy for our encouragement. - Sunil Singh, Nepal

The prayer mountain

is the place where I come near to God,

lay down my burdens before Him

and leave refreshed

in His love every day.

-Kelly, Northern Asia

I have found the prayer mountain to be a place where I can talk to God. It is a good place if you just want to be alone with the Lord. It is a highlight of my time at APTS. Mercy Annoque, Philippines

Life

The multi-cultural makeup of APTS makes for an enlight-ening and rich community experience that is like a family away from home. It is a cherished place that will be missed when you leave it because of the warm community connection youve experienced. APTS is indeed a place where you are loved and have the opportunity to love others as well, as natural friendships flourish in each corner of the campus. APTS provides just a small foretaste of the com-munity we will enjoy in heaven where we will spend eternity with those from every tribe, and nation, and tongue.

Community. We all need it in our lives- especially ministers of Gods Word. And it is loving, godly community that we have all experienced while being on the Student Council this year.

We laughed together, prayed together, and shared pains, struggles, and joys. Some of our sweetest times have also been spent with other friends on campus too! Our gratitude rises to God not only for opportunities to serve him, but also opportunities to experience the joy of relationship with others.

Our prayer is that wherever you are, wherever you are going, you would experience deep, godly community & true friendships as well.Carlo Victa, Student Council President 2013-2014
