New Life Romania was born out of the ministry of Father's House Orphanage Romania (1998 - 2012). Its focus is to take the Gospel of Christ and the love of God through practical aide into communities where no one else is doing this and no one else wants to go.
Our focus has been primarily on poor rural areas in Central Romania, but has also included projects in Moldova and aide to Ukrainian refugees suffering from the war. By God's grace and with the help of our partners, New Life Romania has planted two regional churches used as community centers throughout the week. Each of these serves as a strategic point of outreach to 5 or 6 surrounding villages.
Identifying, equipping and empowering Romanians to reach their country for Christ is the heartbeat of our ministry. New Life's outreach ministries include: discipleship training, medical assistance to the poor and isolated, literacy training for at risk children, food-shelter-clothing and life skills training for the needy, Christian Bible and leadership training for pastors and ministry workers, camps and Gospel presentations. We work together with local civil authorities where we can and have even been thanked by the police for the impact our work is having in making their job easier. For all this we give God the glory.
New Life needs: prayer, financial support to equip and empower our national workers and volunteers to do the above work, assistance with special projects and needs (such as construction and vehicles) and on occasion volunteers to come on a short term project basis.
