Global Projects

• With the support of Calvary Chapel, IJM has been able to launch its assessment of Lima, Peru as the potential location for IJM’s first Regional Hub in South America.
• This “assessment phase” is an extensive learning project that allows Calvary and IJM to gain a profound understanding of how Violence against Women and Children (VAW/C) is manifest in Peru, one of the countries in Latin America with the highest prevalence of femicides, sexual and domestic violence.
• Research during this project will not only unearth the darkness of VAW/C, but also shed light on how the brokenness of the justice system can be repaired.
• Findings from the assessment will guide IJM’s design of a long-term program in Peru and surrounding Andean countries to fight of VAW/C.
• Relationships cultivated with key stakeholders will ensure IJM is in constant engagement with those critical actors that can catalyze the most impactful change.
• The assessment will ensure IJM’s program is well–informed, responsive to real needs of victims and solution-oriented so that IJM can work in close collaboration with local justice operators, government agencies and civil society.
• As a fruit of this initial project, IJM’s objective is to open an office in Lima to manage programs, conduct casework (free legal and social services to victims), and work together with the justice system to assist them in providing protection and care for victims.

• In 2018, there were an estimated 1.5 million Syrian refugees displaced in Lebanon, a country whose total population is 4 million –that’s 1 refugee for every 4 Lebanese nationals.

Amidst the countless obstacles they face in this increasingly dire situation, Syrian refugees have been left with little hope for their future, let alone the next day. At New Heights, our mission is to “bring hope to the emerging generation through the message of God’s love”.

One way that we are carrying out this mission to displaced Syrians is through partnership with Calvary Chapel Fort Lauderdale. Together, we are making a real difference in the lives and hearts of many Syrian children and their families through the Made Clean Initiative.

Made Clean allows our team the unique and exceptional opportunity to engage with Syrian people whom we’d otherwise not have access to, and share with them a Gospel message, as we ultimately seek to bring hope into such a desperate situation.

Antioch was the place where Jesus’ followers were first called Christians and from there missionaries were sent to plant churches all over the known world. In the same way, we want to be a catalyst and resource to plant sustainable healthy churches and grow a support network of church ministries in Latin America.

We will do this by providing a training platform for churches in Latin America as they seek to plant new churches in their surrounding areas. As we work with potential church planters and their sending churches, we will walk with them step by step as we prepare them for the challenges of breaking new ground.
