Nathan & Amy

The Goal of World Horizons is to take the gospel to the least-reached peoples of the world. The plan of Nathan and Amy is to attend two years of language school in the Middle East to give them a working grasp of Arabic. Then they will move north to work as pharmacist and teacher at a medical outreach ministry for Muslims and non-Muslims. They anticipate eventually moving into church planting in a more remote part of the country.

Amy was raised in Kenya and attended school with students of many different cultures, religions, and beliefs, including those of Muslim and Hindu background. She feels that God has given her a real connection and heart for Muslims. Nathan had an interest in missions almost as soon as he gave his life to Christ in college. He explored missions on short-term trips after pharmacy school. After taking the class Perspectives of the World Christian Movement, their focus shifted towards the Arab world.

After visiting the Annoor Sanatorium, they fell in love with its vision. Folks who can’t afford specialty TB treatment live there for at least a month. They receive medical care and hear the gospel before returning to their homes in North Africa, the Middle East, and South Asia. Many that come to faith stay longer and put together a plan for discipleship before going home. The sanatorium has recently gotten into primary care for the refugee camp on the nearby Syrian border, an incredible opportunity to show the love of Christ to people in desperate need.
