IMH School

The IMH School provides quality education in English for children in South Asia with few opportunities. As summarized by its motto, “Molding Character for Victory and Service,” the school seeks to direct the hearts of young people toward truth, a good conscience based on the Word of God and an outward-looking, selfless attitude, providing students with a solid foundation for benefitting society and expanding God’s Kingdom.

The IMH School is an offshoot of a boarding school founded by India Mission workers in 1943. For decades, this institution provided quality education in the local language for the children of Christian workers in the area, as well as for those from families in local villages.

In 2013, in response to requests from parents for English-language education, the IMH School was founded by a Christar worker. It offers schooling for students from kindergarten through 10^th grade in both English and the local language. Its three-acre facility includes classrooms, play areas and a large field that allows children to practice sports and compete on state and national levels, an opportunity that many other schools in the area cannot provide.

The school seeks to serve families that could not otherwise afford English-language education by charging lower tuition than most other schools in the area and subsidizing costs for families with particularly great need. By providing quality education and imparting biblical principles, the school meets the needs of Christian parents who want their children to learn in a Christian environment.

God uses the biblical foundation students receive at the IMH School to begin to prepare many to serve Him in an area of the world where many haven’t yet heard the gospel. Numerous former students are now ministering as pastors and Christian workers, while others are serving the Lord through roles in government and the corporate world.

Specific Needs:

The IMH School grew from 30 students in 2013 to 315 students in 2023. The present facilities are at capacity, and the school needs extra classrooms to increase enrollment. The school already has the resources to add a floor to its existing facility, but needs additional funds to complete each room. The school also needs a new bus so that it can welcome more students. Your gift will enable the school to continue to provide quality Christian education while teaching children that true wisdom comes from God and that salvation is available through His Son.

• $10,000 covers the cost of constructing one classroom (four needed).
• $30,000+ is needed for a new bus.

Pray for the IMH School:

• Praise God for answering prayer and providing the funds to renovate four classrooms with new corrugated sheets roof, allowing for better weather proofing. Thank God also for the funds to purchase a stop-gap, used bus.
• Ask God to increase enrollment at the school and enable it to be self-sustaining.
• Ask the Lord to bring more Christian staff dedicated to serving in the school.
