New Horizon International

NewHorizonInternationalI’m excited to introduce you to New Horizon International. New Horizon International (NHI) is a new ministry born in the heart of a dear friend of mine, Alex Veillard. I first met Alex outside an orphanage in Port-au-Prince, Haiti in 2010. Over the past nine years Alex and I have had many experiences together.

Our friendship began as a result of hardship. An gospel response to a natural disaster is what sent me to Haiti and it was a global media response to the false arrest of 10 Americans that sent Alex to minister to us when few were willing to even admit they knew us. These events were used of God to glue us together with the blood of Christ as brothers.

In the past few years many things have developed in our lives. Both of my sons have married, Alex has married, now has four sons, and now a common desire for the nations to hear the gospel has crossed our paths. This is New Horizon International.

NHI starts and finishes with the gospel. The gospel is the reason and purpose.

We are in the beginning days of developing New Horizon International. But in these early days, New Horizon International has already birth New Horizon Home. New Horizon Home is a children’s home for girls. Currently NHH has 60 girls. These girls are of those in Haiti who are at great risk. They have been abandoned or rescued from the early days of slavery and child trafficking.

Eastside Baptist Church in Twin Falls, Idaho has responded to the invitation from the Lord to partner with New Horizon International in obligations of rent, food, education, healthcare, and spiritual needs of these 60 girls. We are pleased to know that God who has invited us to join Him in this gospel work will provide all that is needed. May the Lord be pleased to find a man in Port-au-Prince, Haiti willing to obey Him. May the Lord be pleased to awaken 60 girls at New Horizon Home  willing to trust Him. May the Lord be pleased to find a people in Twin Falls, Idaho willing to join Him in global gospel work. May the Lord be pleased as we all find our joy in Him.

 

 

Orphan Care is Gospel Reenactment

“When we were on the outside without hope and home, Jesus brought us into his family (Ephesians 2:12-13, 19). What Jesus did for us is the Gospel.

Today there are millions of orphans in the world without hope and home. When we give orphans hope, when we bring orphans into our families, we reenact the Gospel.

When a church provides hope and homes to children lost in the foster care system, it reenacts the Gospel.

When churches create partnerships with other churches around the world in order to care for orphans, the Gospel is reenacted many times over before a watching world.

Orphan care is Gospel reenactment.” (Source: Dan Cruver, 2009)

12 remember that you were at that time separate from Christ, excluded from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world. 13 But now in Christ Jesus you who formerly were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. (Eph 2:11-13 NASB)
