Restoring the lives of veterans in Mid-America

The Veteran’s Residential Training Program is for veterans who desire to change their lives by learning job skills and living in Christian Community. The New Life Evangelistic Center provides veterans with housing, food, clothing and hygiene items 365 nights a year. The training program, which is a developed program that combines relief services, with education and on-the-job training to homeless veterans in various cities and communities in the Mid-west, provides in-depth training and instruction of job skills such as computer training, reception work, renewable energy, television, and radio production, hospitality, and farming and livestock care.

​

This program allows men to find the restoration and healing they need to be successful.  NLEC provides a safe place to sleep, as well as hot meals, clothing, hygiene products, and access to warm showers each night. Veterans who come to NLEC are looking for a new life, and we are here to support them.

​

​After joining the Veterans Program, applicants will share room and board and receive extensive training in a wide variety of fields. Life skills are learned in on-the-job training. Willingness to grow mentally and spiritually and take on a wide range of responsibilities is necessary. Members voluntarily agree to quit smoking and travel to other ministry locations where the need is greatest. Those who receive full benefits must be willing to give 40% of their income in return for full room and board.

​

The Veteran’s Residential Training Program  is built on founded upon: prayer, bible study, faith, hope, responsibility, and Christian Community, leading to lasting, transformative change. Our goal is to get men back on their feet permanently. NLEC believes that healing is found in the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the support of Christian Community.
