THE CHALLENGE WE SEE
Across Mindoro, many tribes long for the hope of the Gospel,
but access to trained leaders who truly understand their culture is limited. Too often:
-
Church planting is done in ways that don’t resonate with the local way of life.
-
Ministry models overlook livelihood, sustainability, and real community needs.
-
Discipleship is shallow when learners can’t connect with the way God’s Word is taught
The result? Communities that remain unreached or disconnected from Christ’s transforming power.

At Saleng Leadership Institute (SLI),
We believe ministry should reflect both God’s truth and the culture of the people it serves.
That’s why we created a curriculum rooted in context, integrating orality strategies, transformational theological education,
and an integrated church planting model.
