Our Partners

Thank You, Blessing Children, Faith Community Baptist Church, and Journey Church!

God often does extraordinary things through what seem like ordinary encounters. Such is the story behind the birth of Nu Numan International Ministry (NNIM)—a work that appears natural on the surface, bears the unmistakable fingerprints of divine guidance.

Aman Kuli came to Meserete Kristos Seminary in Bishoftu with valuable missions experience, but it was at MKS where his calling was further shaped. Under the guidance of faculty like Instructor Workineh A. Yami—who played a key role in teaching Bible and Leadership—Aman's vision and skills were refined, laying crucial foundations for the mission and values of NNIM.

During this formative season, God orchestrated another pivotal connection. Aman crossed paths with Dawit Moges, CEO of Blessing Children Development Organization (BCDO), during what seemed like a simple Christian fellowship. Yet looking back, it's clear this encounter was divinely appointed.

Dawit Moges became a modern-day Barnabas for Aman—offering support, guidance, and introducing him to many local churches in Bishoftu. Later, Dawit connected Aman with Sheila and Rick Lamb, philanthropists and founders of Blessing Children Canada (BCC). Just as Philip once said, "Come and see," Sheila and Rick opened doors for Aman by introducing him to Pastor Art Heiderbrand of Faith Community Baptist Church.

Philanthropist Rick Lamb and Pastor Art Heiderbrand generously invested in training local pastors, laying strong foundations for the ministry. Later, Pastor Art's son, Caleb Heiderbrand, carried forward his father's legacy and continued supporting NNIM in meaningful ways.

Together, these remarkable individuals—and the communities they represent—became midwives to the birth of NNIM.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude not only to Dawit Moges, Sheila and Rick Lamb, Pastor Art, and Caleb Heiderbrand, but also to the members of Blessing Children Canada, Faith Community Baptist Church, and Journey Church. Your prayers, generosity, and steadfast faith have played a vital role in bringing NNIM to life and empowering our mission to reach the unreached, train leaders, and build peace in our communities.

A special thank you also goes to the Kingdom Partners team at Journey Church for your willingness to join hands with us in serving God's Kingdom. Your partnership is a powerful testimony to how the global Body of Christ can work together to bring transformation.

We are deeply grateful to each of you. May God continue to bless you abundantly and multiply the fruit of your faithfulness.
