The "Promised Land" is situated on 70 acres of beautiful, 20kms outside salem at the foot of the Yercaud Hills. It is already home to about 450 of the younger children.

The Dr. Graham Staines Memorial School is also located at the Promised Lands and caters for almost 400 orphan students, who also live at the Promised Land. The school was named in memory of Dr. Graham Staines who was an Australian missionary who was killed in the Northern Indian State of Orissa.
- St.Basil matriculation school
- Missionary Training School
- Timothy Training School
The Timothy Training School is at the Promised Land site. It was founded recently as a missionary training centre, and it hosts the largest pastors' conference in India: (over 4000 pastors in 1999 from all over India and of all denominations). The goal is to train thousands of native missionaries to take the Gospel to unreached places throughout India through evangelism and church planting. There are millions of people in India who have never heard the gospel, and the great commission of Jesus Christ commands Christians to take the message to the ends of the earth. India is closed to foreign missionaries, so we must ensure that native Indians are equipped to carry out the task. The missionary training course last three months, after which the students return to their home churches to gain practical experience with their leaders there.
