Nuestra misiĆ³n
ā
NiƱos de la Luz es un ministerio dedicado a alcanzar a los niƱos de la calle para Cristo.
Estamos comprometidos con los niƱos que viven en las calles, abandonados por sus padres y familiares, y adictos a los inhalantes y las drogas, los niƱos que se han convertido en delincuentes por una necesidad de supervivencia.
Estos niƱos han sido rechazados por sus sociedades y considerados una causa desesperada.
NDLL ofrece a estos niƱos mucho mƔs que una alternativa a las calles; les ofrecemos esperanza.
Esperanza que viene de un Dios que no los rechazarĆ” sino que los abrazarĆ” y les darĆ” una esperanza que nunca han tenido.
Deseamos demostrar el amor de Dios de tres formas bƔsicas:
- para conocerlos y amarlos justo donde estƔn en la calle.
- para invitarlos a vivir en una de nuestras casas estilo familiar a largo plazo.
- equipar a los jĆ³venes con las herramientas que necesitan una vez que estĆ©n preparados para la independencia.
MĆ”s importante aĆŗn, deseamos que cada uno de estos niƱos venga
para conocer el amor inagotable e insondable que Dios tiene por ellos.

Biblia
We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God, inerrant in its original manuscripts, yet infallible and totally trustworthy in its current form. We believe it is God’s final authority and it should be obeyed as such. It is comprised of the sixty-six books of the original canon. It is the only guide for the faith and practice of a believer.
II Timothy 3:16-17, II Peter 1:20-21, John 10:30-35
Dios y la Trinidad
We believe and know God to be One in essence, yet Tri-personal, that is He has existed eternally in three persons: the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. They are equal in their divinity yet differ in their functions. God is distinct from His creation and as Creator has brought all creation into existence. We believe He was, is and will always be. He is all powerful, all knowing and all present.

John 1:1, 33-34, I Peter 1:1-2
JesĆŗs
Cristo
We believe in the deity of Jesus Christ. We believe He is true God and true man. We believe that He has existed from all eternity and is the second person of the godhead. He is the second person of the Trinity. He was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of a virgin. He lived a holy and sinless life. He died on the cross as the only atonement for the sins of mankind. God bodily and physically raised Him from the dead and in doing so conquered death once and for all. He ascended to heaven from where he now reigns.
Matt. 1:18-25, Luke 1:35, John 1:1-2, 3:16
espĆritu Santo
We believe that all believers are given gifts by the Holy Spirit as He sees fit in order to edify one another and to minister to the unbeliever. We believe the Holy Spirit was given to the church to actively work in the lives of believers to do His work. We believe the Holy Spirit is “with” us before we turned to God to convict us of our sin. We believe He is “in” (indwelling) us when we become Christians to help us grow, pray and change.

John 14:17, 16:8-11, I Cor. 6:19
Hombre
We believe that man is created in the image of God consisting of three parts: body, soul and spirit. We believe that man is separated from God by his sin and deserves death.
Gen. 1:26, John 3:1-7, I Thess. 5:23
la segunda venida
We believe in the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. We believe Jesus Christ will return soon, and at any time rapture the Church. We believe it to be personal and very real. We believe in the bodily resurrection of the just and the unjust. We believe that those whom God has saved will go away to spend eternity with Him and the unsaved will go away to eternal punishment, separated from God forever.
Acts 1:11, 12, I Thess. 4:16,17, Hebrews 9:28, Revelation 20:4-6, Matt. 25:31-46, Rev. 20:4-6, 11-15
la Iglesia
We believe in the universal Body of Christ, that is, we believe that all whom are regenerated are baptized into the Body of Christ, the Church. We believe Jesus Christ is the head and authority of the church.
Rom. 12:3-8, I Cor. 12:8-10, Eph. 1:22-23, 4-11, Col. 1:18
SalvaciĆ³n
We believe that salvation is by faith in the work that Jesus did on the cross. We believe that all who turn to Him in true faith and repent from their sins will be saved. We believe that all good works are a manifestation of salvation and not a means to salvation.
Eph. 2:10
Misiones
We believe in the responsibility of every believer to “go and make disciples of all nations…”
