Freshers Day Program
This year at Haven of Hope India 15 new students joined our student body from 3 different countries (India, Nepal, Myanmar). I had the privilege of speaking online to the new students and to listen to their testimonies. What an absolute joy to hear about their calling to the ministry and their desire to train at HOH so they can proclaim Jesus to their people. Please pray for our students and faculty as we look forward to preparing 45 young men this year to serve the Lord. Bel
Joseph-Shan State Myanmar
God is using the vision and passion of Joseph Lee to minister the gospel to a primitive tribe in a mountainous region of Myanmar. Here are photos of the humble facilities he is building (house, school, orphanage, church, etc.). Pray for him (good health, open doors, in roads into the community, etc.) as he reaches these people for Christ. Thanks to all the PRMI donors who are supporting Joseph and this ministry.
Persecution on the rise
Anti-conversion laws are being passed in certain states and local districts across parts of India by Hindu majorities in government positions. The intent, frankly, is to legalize persecution against Christians. Jesus-followers are being "cast out" from their homes and communities. They are willing to risk losing everything in order to follow Jesus and not renounce their faith in Him. Recently, one of the pastors in our India-Nepal training group made us aware of 15 families i
New India Church Completed
We are praising God that, recently, the new church build in Siliguri, India was completed! About a week ago, the church held its first meeting in the new building. It is a beautiful concrete structure with a metal roof that will no longer leak during the rainy season or have holes in the walls during winter. We are grateful to God and to all the PRMI donors who gave so generously for this project. You have certainly had a significant part in making this a place where the Word
Van for Haven of Grace Seminary
We are so grateful for the PRMI churches and individual donors who gave toward the purchase of a van for Haven of Grace Seminary. This vehicle will be used by our Asst. Director, Pastor Lowell Arbolario, to drive to the southernmost satellite seminary sites in Hinobaan and Basay to teach classed and encourage pastors and churches. This drive is about a 5-6 hour one-way trip and we needed something reliable, safe, and fuel efficient. In addition, Pastor Lowell will use it to p
New Outdoor Activity Center
Praise God for the PRMI donors who gave toward the construction of a new outdoor activity center for DTS in Myanmar. Construction started in June and is just about complete. This is essential for our students due to the safety and security issues in the country. Since students are confined to the campus throughout the year, this space will give them an opportunity for games like--chinlone, basketball, volleyball, etc. It will also provide additional space for classes, gatheri
Silay Mission Baptist Church
Pastor Roberto recently graduated with an MA from Haven of Grace Seminary. 18 months ago, God burdened his heart to plant Silay Mission Baptist Church. SMBC has exploded with growth through God's blessing and the preaching of the gospel. The church regularly has over 300 in attendance with many youth and college age coming to Christ. In the last few months 52 have publicly followed in believer's baptism. This is just one example of how God is using PRMI through the training o
God is Working at Summer Camp
April was a busy month at Haven of Grace Camp in the Philippines. Over 1,500 campers attended 4 weeks of camp with nearly 50 churches represented. God moved in many hearts through the preaching of His Word. The conviction of the Holy Spirit was evident as many Filipino youth heard a clear presentation for the first time. Up to this point, we have heard of 250+ young people who have trusted Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. There are still many more weeks of camp in May so plea
Ministry Trip to Arunachal Pradesh
Recently, 7 students and 2 faculty from HOH India traveled north to Arunachel Pradesh to minister in 2 small churches and evangelize some mountain/rural villages. This was a practical ministry/training trip for our students to help them understand the challenging nature of gospel work and church planting in remote areas of India. The students were involved in preaching, teaching, music, evangelism, discipleship, and community projects. They cleaned up trash and performed othe
Haven of Grace Graduation
On May 9th, 2026, Haven of Grace Seminary Philippines celebrated its second graduation ceremonies with 9 students receiving MA degrees. Originally, we were only expecting 5 graduates but 4 others worked very hard to complete their requirements right up to the end. Dr. Tim Valiante, the director of our seminary was able to attend and helped administer the exercises. I was also able to address the students via video. We praise God for raising up this school to train these men t
