New Horizon 2015

Final preparations are well under way for New Horizon 2015. The tent is up and soon the campus of the University of Ulster Coleraine will be buzzing as 1000’s of people come to worship God, listen to the speakers and enjoy fellowship with other Christians at the various meetings at New Horizon 2015. This year’s event runs from 1st – 7th August with the opening Evening Celebration starting at 7.30pm on Saturday 1st.

The theme for this year is “An Unconditional Love for His World”.

  • The speaker at the Bible Readings, starting at 10am each morning, is Iain Provan.
  • The speakers for the evening celebrations are Ben Kwashi and Harold Miller.
  • Praise will be led by New Irish Arts and Andy Lamberton. You can find out more about the speakers & praise team here.

New Horizon has been running this event at the Coleraine campus since 1989 and has grown to a stage where it now sees approximately 5000 people attending the various events on a daily basis making it one of the largest Christian events in all of Ireland. The largest tent on site – the Pavillion – can hold 3,500 and is used for the Morning Bible Readings and Evening celebrations. As you will appreciate, running an event of this size and ensuring it runs smoothly depends on input and hard work from lots of people. New Horizon 2015 like every other year depends on 100’s of volunteers. If you feel God is leading you to get involved in this, check out the many areas where you can volunteer to help here.
