About New Horizons

New Horizons Church is a church for people on a new journey in life. You may be new to Canada, new to Winnipeg, or in a new season of life. We invite you to be our guest this coming Sunday as we explore what it means to become a fully devoted follower of Jesus Christ. New Horizons is a brand new church, affiliated with the Wesleyan Church of Canada (www.wesleyan.org). We exist to communicate the life-giving hope and holiness of Jesus Christ with families just like yours!

New Horizons International Church is part of the Wesleyan Denomination. The Wesleyan Church is a Spirit-led, praying movement called to evangelize and make disciples of all people by equipping believers, developing leaders, multiplying churches, and transforming communities.

Wesleyans believe in one God, who is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and the Savior of all who put their faith in Him alone for eternal life. We believe that those who are made new in Christ are called to be holy in character and conduct, and can only live this way by being filled with the Lord’s Spirit. We believe in the Bible and its sufficiency to establish our faith and conduct. We believe God wills for people everywhere to know Him and be made new in Christ. We believe that the purpose of the Church is to worship God in spirit and in truth, and to reach a lost and fallen world with the gospel of Jesus Christ through its worship, witness, and loving deeds.

SUnday Worship Gatherings

New Horizons International Church gathers for worship at The International Place of Friendship on Sundays, and services beginning at 10:30 am. We are joyful in our worship, and sing a mixture of the best contemporary worship songs and timeless hymns of the Christian Church. We pray together and with each other. We take turns reading God’s Word. We celebrate Holy Communion regularly. We hear God’s Word preached, and baptise new believers. The young, old(er!), newcomers to Canada, and all God’s people participate in our worship services.

SUnday Children's Program

We offer a children’s program during our weekly worship gathering at 10:55am. Children up to age 11 go to their own class part way through the worship service. They sing fun songs, hear new stories from the Bible, enjoy a delicious snack, and learn what it means to follow Jesus in an age appropriate way.

Tuesdays – 1:00pm – 3:00pm
Wednesdays – 6:30 – 8:30pm
