Lighting the way
About MBSI
A school born of a church, for the harvest
Who we are, what we believe, and the values that shape every student who trains here.
History
Since 1975, a house of training
Maranatha Bible School International opened its doors in 1975 under the vision of the Pentecostal Missionary Church of Christ (4th Watch): to raise workers for the end-time harvest. What began as a small training house in Marikina City has grown into an international school sending graduates across the Philippines and abroad.
Through the decades, MBSI has kept one obsession - to form believers who love the ministry more than life. Generations of pastors, missionaries, church workers, and professionals trace their consecration to these halls in Santo Niño.
Write the next chapter with us. The house of training is still raising workers for the harvest that hastens.
Vision & Mission
