Our Values |
|
| |
|
The New Life Evangelistic Center founds
its values on the love of Jesus Christ for all people; and
especially for all who suffer from poverty, homelessness,
addictions, and abuse. NLEC holds the following values in
highest regard: empathy, advocacy, empowerment, dignity,
responsibility, faith, hope and love. Above all, we are
motivated by the Love of God to provide continuing support and
advancement to the poor and the homeless in our local and
global communities.

The
mission of the New Life Evangelistic Center, is to provide
Christian hospitality and respect for life through services of food, clothing, shelter,
advocacy, education,
job training, and physical, mental and
spiritual health care to the poor and homeless in our local
and global communities.

The spirit of God moves
us into action to provide direct services of
shelter, food, clothing, and job training. The New Life
Evangelistic Center provides over 150,000 meals and
sandwiches, and more than 65,000 nights of emergency overnight
shelter every year. We provide 80,000 social service
contacts -- helping individuals and families throughout
mid-America with clothing and food through our free stores,
fans, blankets, utility assistance, transportation, medical
assistance and housing assistance.
-
Homeless Prevention:
NLEC knows: The best way to fight homelessness is to stop it
before it starts. When someone's housing status is jeopardized
by a crisis situation, such as a job loss, utility disconnection,
or the threat of eviction, NLEC intervenes to help prevent
homelessness.
-
Homeless Transformation:
When families and individuals do become homeless, NLEC seeks
to foster and fulfill their own motivation to help themselves.
When clients show this desire, NLEC equips them with job
training, addiction counseling, spiritual guidance, and
whatever else they might need to become permanently housed and
gainfully employed.
-
Homeless Empowerment and Education:
NLEC's unique on-the-job training program not only benefits
the homeless, but also the community as a whole. Regular renewable
energy fairs, where the formerly homeless trainees share
renewable energy skills they learn, have introduced
thousands throughout the Midwest to the world of renewable
energy. Through
www.moreenergy.org and the Here's Help Radio and TV
network, staffed by the formerly homeless, educational and
informational programming is reaching more people. And,
the new nationwide Renewable Energy Satellite network will teach
sustainable living, renewable energy, gardening and much more
--
providing even more opportunities.
