Pastor Mark is the real deal. He talks the talk and walks the walk. He is a true man of God who lives his life in the Word. He is a disciple maker, a proactive and kind leader, a mentor to his parishioners, and an amazing asset to the Champaign-Urbana community. Pastor Mark knows no stranger. You know you are welcome and loved when you walk into New Horizon because that is how he, and the rest of the New Horizon staff and congregation, make you feel. Being raised Catholic is a very different experience. Finding Celebrate Recovery, my chosen and forever C.R. Family, New Horizon (and new church family), and Pastor Mark (and the staff of N.H.) is one of the greatest gifts God has given me and for that I am eternally grateful. Thank you Pastor Mark!!
Carly’s story
The day I truly believed God was real and truly felt his love and will never forget. I was sitting at a stoplight not to far from work crying as I had done many mornings. Jeremy Camp’s “Take this out of my hands,” was playing on your station. The volume went up on its own during the chorus of that song. I truly believe that was God speaking through your music ❤️ and he still does. Thank you!
