"Purpose Institute has been a faithful member as an Approved Ministry in the Department of Ministry Training within the Division of Education. It is also an honor to have your participation as a contributing member on the Board of Regents. It is my personal opinion that Purpose Institute is prepared to become an Endorsed Ministry by the United Pentecostal Church International."

Daniel Batchelor
Superintendent, Division of Education
United Pentecostal Church International

"As the Ohio District superintendent since 1995, I have developed the utmost respect for Purpose Institute and all the personnel associated with it. No pastor or church, no minister or student has ever registered one complaint about the school. All reports coming from the clientele of PI have been positive and enthusiastic. PI has earned a reputation of integrity, cooperation and honor among us."

J. Mark Jordan
Ohio District Superintendent

"The subjects offered in the PI curriculum are pertinent, timely, and very appropriate for both student and teacher. They are easy to access online, and download. One of the many benefits of the 4 year curriculum is that the student can step in at anytime during the study. Another benefit allows the student to take the minimum of one course, or the maximum of all four courses of study during the semester."

Paul N. Bennett
Former District Manager, Purpose Institute, Wisconsin

"Purpose Institute offers a viable opportunity for a more extensive knowledge of scripture for those who cannot or choose not to take the more traditional route of one of our Bible schools. Purpose Institute has created an atmosphere of expanded camaraderie among our District by bringing dedicated, sincere men and women from different churches together. I am not aware of any church related “changes” or “problems” that have ever occurred by “mixing” congregations under the banner or Purpose Institute. Purpose Institute supplies a means to “measure” a person’s knowledge and the incentive to excel by recognizing their achievements with a diploma. Purpose Institute allows a greater number of people to be trained and more effectively work in their local churches."

Duane E. Kramer
Pastor Mt. Vernon, Ohio & Ohio District Secretary for UPCI

"We would not hesitate to recommend Purpose Institute to any local church, area, section or district that is seeking a method for training ministers and leaders. Implementing Purpose Institute is without doubt one of the best choices we’ve made in our local church."

D. G. Hargrove
Senior Pastor, North Cities United Pentecostal Church

"Purpose Institute has a very thorough eight semester curriculum with an emphasis on “leadership training”. Their program simplifies the administration part of the campus by using their website (www.purposeinstitute.com) as a way of enrollment, gaining course lessons, posting attendance and grades, and PI does all of the financial accounting. The cost is reasonable, with built in rebates to the individual campuses, and to the District that is using their services. The individual course lessons are skeleton in content for the purpose of individual teacher study and input. Here in Wisconsin all of our District Board members are instructors, plus qualified selected Pastors in each Section.

We have found that “Purpose Institute” is one of the best ideas that we have implemented as a District. We are thanking God for this training program!"

Sincerely;
John E. Putnam
Wisconsin District Superintendent

"Purpose Institute has made an indelible impact on our students and staff through the relevancy of its curriculum and its practical application for reaching this post-modern world. Each class has given us a greater understanding and desire for the restoration of apostolic methods and patterns in ministry. The emphasis of each lesson is spiritual impartation of Biblical principles and inspires immediate practical application. The flexibility of its once-a-month class structure enables busy students to attend while completing coursework at their own leisure. Students are encouraged to remain active in their local congregation while receiving further training."

David K. Doan
Missionary to Japan and Vietnam

"We at Tabernacle of Joy are excited about partnering with Purpose Institute for a harvest of trained Apostolic personal not only in Singapore but also in China and throughout the 10/40 window."
