Just this year, we were able to explore some refugee centers.  After 28 years of the instability due to war, you can now see people come together to hear God’s word.  There is a lot to be done, but it is extremely encouraging.  We are just starting to to come alongside and offer comfort to this war torn country as God directs.  NLC has started to provide the Yezidis, Syrian refugees, and Kurdish villagers with English courses, and providing some simple medical and ophthalmology help. The biggest benefit we can give is to show interest in our friends here and get to know them, so we can give them a real and eternal hope.

We are renting a 4-story building within the city of Duhok as a multi-purpose ministry center. We are in the process of officially registering New Life Compassion, Inc. within Kurdistan and afterwards will register it in Federal Iraq. This will give us the ability to set up an office in Baghdad, Mosul and Basra and will lead us into N. Syria.
