Beautiful APTS

Monte and I spent about ten months between 2000 to 2001 at Asia Pacific Theological Seminary (APTS). It was such a beautiful place. I have very fond memories of our time there. The Lord opened the door for us to be there. Those were very precious times where we experience the hand of God as fairly new married couple.


Here is a write up from APTS’s website http://www.apts.edu/index.cfm?menuid=9&parentid=7

“Asia Pacific Theological Seminary is located approximately 250 km (150 miles) north of Manila just outside Baguio City , the chief vacation city and "Summer Capital of the Philippines." The campus is situated high on the Cordillera mountain range offering unsurpassed scenic beauty.


Although the campus is located at an altitude of 1630 meters (5,300 feet) above sea level, it is just minutes away from schools, churches, and transportation facilities. Baguio City, with a population of 350,000 is served by a daily flight and regular bus service from Manila. Baguio is known for its many colleges and universities, fine restaurants, shopping malls, recreation facilities and unique local handicrafts. With its low crime rate, the area provides a comfortable and secure setting for international students.


The APTS campus is well known for its garden-like environment. Flowers abound throughout the campus and the grounds are well maintained.”
