Sam and Carol Soukotta are the directors of the Tawangmangu Bible School in Central Java.
The Bible College offers 2-4 year courses, with the vision to train and empower local people to reach their nation and to send out pioneers to plant churches in the un-evangelised areas of Indonesia. 70-80% of their graduates are in full-time ministry.
The Bible School was expanded in 2018, to include a university, and building work is ongoing to complete the 3 story building. Courses on offer now include Theology, Teaching, Business, Tourism & Hospitality and Visual Communication Design.
Sam and Carol also pioneered Mt Hope Training Centre, in the jungle area of West Kalimantan, Borneo, after seeing the need amongst the Dayak people for access to education and hope for a better future.
Mt Hope comprises a kindergarten, primary school, Junior High, hostels housing 190 children and various micro-businesses for the campus to become as self-sufficient as possible.
