Missionary  Hector Newman

Founder

Hector was born and raised in La Ceiba, Honduras. He accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as his Saviour at he age of 16 through a missionary outreach event.  Two months later, he felt the Lord calling him to prepare and go serve Him.  It was around 1966 that his family emigrated to the U.S. He finished high school in Boston, and it was not until 1971, that Hector returned to Central America to enroll in seminary. During his four years attending Bible school in Costa Rica, Hector went to Honduras many times to preach. Soon after, he saw the need and felt the call to return to his own country as a missionary.

After earning his Bachelor's degree in Theology he returned to the U.S. to complete both his Masters of Divinity degree and his Doctor of Ministry degree. He also completed advanced studies in communication, leadership, and evangelism in Singapore. He was ordained by the American Baptist Churches in 1976.

In 2001, Hector founded Iglesias Comunidad de Amor, Internacional. Since then, and with the guidance of the Lord, Hector has planted over 25 churches in many regions of Honduras. Some of the ministries include the Comunidad de Amor Bible Institute, The Newman Christian School & Computer Training Center, a music school, and El Arca Camp and Retreat Center. His passion is for evangelism through community engagement and outreach.

Hector Newman, is a missionary who lives by faith and is passionate about sharing the gospel. Throughout the years, the Lord has been more than faithful and has always provided through your prayers and financial giving.
