Dr. Ajit A. Prasadam, the General Secretary, says, "In ISSU we encourage faith seeking understanding and foster holding the head and heart together. We seek to bring all areas of human action - nature, persons, social and cultural - within the purview of transformation, especially redemptive transformation, through the ISSU curriculum and courses offered through the St. Andrew Centre for HRD and Counselling."
