What is NEWSTART Global?
NEWSTART Global is designed to educate, inspire, and equip local churches, as well as schools and health organizations around the world to conduct health evangelism simply and effectively. Through a multiphase plan that closely tracks Ellen White’s counsel, local churches can effectively use health outreach as the “entering wedge” of the gospel. NEWSTART Global provides the necessary materials, systems, training, and medical missionaries to help organizations become centers of influence.
Features of NEWSTART Global include onsite work by teams of health evangelism specialists, complete training and materials for local churches, detailed community health surveys and studies with reports, exclusive online tools and resources, a turnkey public health outreach event, and permanent professional support by Weimar medical missionaries. In addition, NEWSTART Global seamlessly integrates with various gospel evangelism programs like the Amazing Facts AFCOE program.
NEWSTART Global is empowered by Weimar's Health Evangelism And Leadership Training for Him (HEALTH), a training course designed to produce effective health evangelism leaders. This program provides comprehensive education in natural remedies, vegan cooking, health outreach, and leadership.
Key features of the program include:
- A comprehensive four-month health evangelism leadership curriculum infused with practical experience and real world applications.
- An integrated leadership module where participants lead health evangelism teams.
- A program track tailored for licensed medical professionals desiring to incorporate health evangelism in their day-to-day practices and become health evangelism leaders in their churches and communities.
