In 1995, Jim and Georgia Lamont arrived in Honduras when Jim was 65 years old, after a successful Business career, to start an orphanage and minister to the churches in and around Tegucigalpa. They purchased close to 30 acres of fertile soil for farming with pine trees, mountains and creeks in the valley of Jalaca, an hour from the capitol city of Tegucigalpa.

In 2003, Honduran Social Services began to bring them children to feed, house, train, love and educate. At 81, Jim and Georgia turned the children’s home over to their daughter and son-in-law, Ron and Annette Thiesen.

The current Directors, Ron and Annette, life long missionaries in Peru, moved to Honduras in 2011 to take over New Life Children’s Home. Many important changes have been made to build a solid foundation in the lives of the children and reach out to the local communities to feed the hungry, service the communities and educate poor external children.
