Twenty-five men from Lutheran Mission of Salvation, India, are enrolled in the seminary program that began in January 2006. Prof. Adolph Harstad taught New Testament Isagogics and Pres. John Moldstad taught the first volume of Pieper's Dogmatics. Our Missions Counselor, Rev. Steven Petersen, also made the trip to Hyderabad and had several meetings with the directors of LMSI.

In this photo are pictured in the front row the three Indian presidents of LMSI with the Americans.  These men are (from left to right) Rev. Steven Petersen, Elder ViJay Sydney, Pastor Solomon Mamidi, Pres. John Moldstad, Pastor Ananda Raju and Prof. Adolph Harstad. The Asia Committee of our Board for Foreign Missions is recommending that twice a year professors from the US travel to India for conducting the seminary classes.
