Who we are
Our Mission Statement:
“Reach out, share God’s love, grow in faith and make a difference.”
Our Vision Statement:
“To be a vibrant community empowered with Godly purpose.”
Our Values
Truth, Hope, Compassion and Integrity
At New Horizons Church we believe:
That the Bible is God’s Word. It is accurate, authoritative and applicable to our every day lives.
In one eternal God who is the Creator of all things. He exists in three Persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. He is totally loving and completely holy.
That sin has separated each of us from God and His purpose for our lives.
That the Lord Jesus Christ as both God and man is the only One who can reconcile us to God. He lived a sinless and exemplary life, died on the cross in our place, and rose again to prove His victory and empower us for life.
That in order to receive forgiveness and the “new birth” we must repent of our sins, believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and submit to His will for our lives.
That in order to live the holy and fruitful lives that God intends for us, we need to be baptised in water and be filled with the power of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit enables us to use spiritual gifts.
That God has individually equipped us so that we can successfully achieve His purpose for our lives which is to worship God, fulfill our role in the Church and serve the community in which we live.
That God wants to heal and transform us so that we can live healthy and prosperous lives in order to help others more effectively.
That our eternal destination of either Heaven or Hell is determined by our response to the Lord Jesus Christ.
That the Lord Jesus Christ is coming back again as He promised.

Leader Bio:
Making a decision for Christ at the age of 20 was indeed a life-changing experience for Rohan. No more hiding in the shadows awaiting human purpose, Rohan was now assured of God’s love and free to be who God had created him to be. His faith prompted him to learn more each day from the Bible and eventually led him to complete theological studies.
Since becoming a Christian he’s worked with children, youth and young adults for the past 27 years in either voluntary or paid positions at several churches, and as a primary and secondary school chaplain. To supplement his church ministry he has worked in architecture, engineering and currently runs a small property maintenance company.
Other than God, his greatest support and best friend is his wife, Liz, and they have two amazing teenager children. Both Liz and Rohan have a passion to train and equip leaders for ministry, to positively influence young people’s lives and see them develop a life changing relationship with Jesus Christ.

Abide with us
O Holy Spirit of God, abide with us; inspire all our thoughts; pervade our imaginations; suggest all our decisions; order all our doings. Be with us in our silence and in our speech, in our haste and in our leisure, in company and in solitude, in the freshness of the morning and in the weariness of the evening; and give us grace at all times humbly to rejoice in Thy mysterious companionship.
