ABOUT US
New shalom ministries (NSM) is a religious and the social action group working
towards the preaching of the gospel in every part of BIHAR: taking care of those
who are oppressed, doing the health orientation programmes for the poor and the
needy and the empowerment of women and poor and educating and caring for the
orphan, abandoned and helpless children.
THE BEGINNING
After working as a missionary in Bihar for more than 20 years, we realized that
some of the oppressed groups are still unreached with the gospel and their basic
needs have not been met. We decided to work for their development from 2006
onwards. To begin fulfilling these needs, we as a family started a self
supported school called HEBRON MISSION SCHOOL at a place named HATIA KHAND in
Patna. We have also begun work especially among the oppressed people groups
called mushahars. We have 15 mushahar children in a home which we have in Patna.
We call it happy home. The NSM works with abandoned and helpless children,
tribal, dalits, women and poor to protect their rights and ensure social justice
to them with the motto "we believe in the justice of the lord".
VISION
Our vision is to reach the un-reached and oppressed with the good news of the
lord Jesus
Christ. This includes guiding the believers to reach their own people. We intend
to concentrate primarily in Bihar state in northern India.
NSM envisages a transformation of the society. This means an empowerment of the
marginalized so that their rights can be realized. This of course means that an
equitable and just society will be formed.
MISSION
1) Equip volunteer workers to be placed in various part of Bihar, and beyond to
reach the unreached with the gospel.
2) To place workers for church planting and community transformation in
unreached areas where there is currently no Christian work, especially among the
mushahars who are the most oppressed group in Bihar. 3) Train the native
believers for leadership by giving specialized training in reaching children,
youth, and the elite of this society, religious groups.
4) Introduce education and medical service along with rehabilitation centers for
women and children from persecuted families, child laborers, tribal children,
orphans.

ACTIVITIES
Child education sponsorship program
CESP is a joint initiative of NSM and those from other countries willing to join
in the redress the grievances of orphan, abandoned and helpless children. Under
this program, children are provided economic, social and moral support to ensure
their qualitative education and development. They are enrolled in HEBRON MISSION
SCHOOL and other schools. Many are even provided accommodations. This will
provide not only education but opportunity for their participation in regular
activities of schools like games, sports, cultural activities with other
children. This helps them to get out of the social stigma of being an orphaned
or from a different class, caste, or creed and thus grow physically and mentally
so that they can compete with the children of the main stream of society. At the
same time, their relatives and the people of the community are sensitized
regarding their social responsibility towards these children.
Health oriented program for the oppressed and doing the medication free of
costs.
Human rights are another major issue of NSM. It works for the promotion and
protection of human rights. We organize mass awareness and provide legal support
to the victims. We likewise mobilize people to put pressure on the appropriate
government authorities.
Church planting.
NSM is sending helpers to the places where there is no Christian witness. Church
planting includes conducting seminars, organizing festivals and offering many
opportunities to preach the good news to the people we are reaching.
Economic self reliance (MICRO ENTERPRISES)
NSM promotes economic self reliance through micro credit programme. It works
with women and men of the musahars, youth and rickshaw pullers, etc., In order
to make them self-dependent and ensure their human rights and right to choose
their freedom of expression.
