For several years the founder of New Hope Christian Ministries, Inc. has had a burden for the country of Italy where his ancestors were born. Four years ago, he met Italian missionaries, Angelo and Helen Nesta who have become friends and share the vision of the Italians for Jesus outreach to the Italian people. Angelo and Helen have been missionaries in the north region for 29 years.  Their project, called Mission Venice, has been instrumental in helping to establish 11 churches in that area of Italy.

    It is the mission of Italians For Jesus to provide donated funds to see this work expand and to plant several more churches.  It also hopes to raise funds for the Teen Challenge program in Italy.  With the support of Italians throughout the United States we will see Italy evangelized in a mighty way, reaching families with the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ for all eternity.
