Library
There is a library in the school of over 15000 volumes, which has an adequate variety of missiological and Biblical reference and resource materials and useful books to provide help for students to do their research works, whenever needed. The library is fully air-conditioned. Some chairs and tables are available to enable the students to do their research work in the library itself. Books are signed out on a trust basis by the student since he/she realizes his/her role of being honest and reliable stewardship to God, in taking good and proper care of His provision of books and resource materials, as found in the school library.

Medical Care and Insurance :
Students are strongly recommended and advised to buy a special local student's medical insurance policy to ensure that their medical needs are taken care of in case they fall sick during their time in Singapore.

Cooking and laundry facilities are available at each unit of accommodation. Accommodation is available for non-Trainer students and the cost for each single student (male) is S$300.00 per month per person. Whereas, the cost of housing a couple with or without a child in one room unit in Singapore may cost S$1000-1500.

Recreation :

There is recreation facility within the school as well as in the student’s hostel.

Ministry duties :

In order to inculcate humility and Servant-hood in the life of a student, ministry duties are assigned to every student on a daily basis ranging from washing cups to washing toilets.

Each student is assigned to a local church for ministry learning under the nurture of the local church. Every student is expected to carry out the field assignment with the local church as per the assignment made by the school. Hence, each student is advised to have no personal agenda in order to be available to carry out this task, whenever it is required.
