III. PUBLICATIONS

St. John's publications is the literary wing of this seminary. Its chief aim is to promote Telugu Christian literature. The seminary had published earlier a few books along with the quarterly by name 'Lokaniki Nene Velugu' which is appreciated by both the laity and clergy in the region. The periodical 'Lokaniki Nene Velugu' (I am the Light of the world) is a theological pastoral quarterly published by the contribution of theological articles mostly from the staff, students and alumni. This quarterly is also a means of contact between the seminary and the alumni, who are engaged in the pastoral ministry, a forum for sharing pastoral experience and a source of information on subjects of interest to the Church of Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and of the world at large. The articles published in the issues contribute towards theological updating of the ministry to laity in the field of evangelization.
