My name is Shedelyne Petit. I entered the New Life Technical College in 2020 and graduated in 2022 with a diploma in Touristic Hosting. 

Since making a career in tourism, my dream was to be a part of a few students to serve as one of the school’s representatives at the Tourism Regional Summit in 2022.

As I dedicated myself wholeheartedly for tourism, I am making my living as a tour guide with our incoming visitors to Haiti. I am currently working as one of the leaders of Haiti New Life Tourism Department.  I will do everything I can to excel in this field by promoting tourism and share the gospel when opportunity arises.

My name is Daniel Julien. I was born and raised in a poor family. When I grew up, I thought my life would turn out to be a disaster because I could not foresee how I would be able to pay for a technical college or university where I desired to be a tour guide.  Everywhere I looked it was very expensive. Therefore, I was concerned for my future. I have heard of an excellent college called New Life Technical College located in the Vaudreuil areas for an affordable price, I registered with them back in 2020. Two years later, I got my Diploma in Tourism and Hospitality Management. 

After my graduation, I was hired as a customer service employee at a prestigious hotel called “Lakou Breda” in the Cap-Haitian. My job was to welcome, assist customers, provide food, beverages, and to ensure that they were satisfied through attentive service. I also take visitors on to some of our beautiful sites here in Haiti. 

In addition, I am teaching staff the many things I have learned through my training with HNLM. Their goal is to raise up the next Haitian generation to change Haitians and to stay in Haiti.  Thanks to the New Life Technical College and staff.

Professional Objective:

My professional objective is to train and support students in the field of tourism and hospitality by providing them with both theoretical and practical knowledge, to develop their professional skills and effectively prepare them for the demands of the tourism industry.

Thank you for changing the direction of my life so I can impact others to do the same.

I was raised in a Christian home. When I was 2 years old, I was very sick and was told I would die shortly. When my parents heard the news, they made a vow to the Lord if He would heal me, I would become a Pastor in order to reach people for Him. I was healed immediately after that promise was made to the Lord. 

At my early age, I accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior. I went to seminary after high school and graduated with a Bachelor degree in theology in 2007. Then, I went to Wesley Biblical Seminary in Jackson, Mississippi, and graduated with a master in Divinity in 2012. I went to NYACK, Alliance Theological Seminary (ATS) and graduated with a Doctorate degree in Global Leadership in 2019.  I had the privilege to go to Israel for Practical Understanding in Religion and Anthropology. 

During those studies, I was married to Luna Jean-Francois with whom I have 4 children. In 2008, we began an English school to help the people in the Cap-Haitian community in order to extend their range of knowledge and connection.

We met Gary and LeAnne at the OMS compound in 2008. God brought us together with the same vision to teach trades such as sewing, electricity, tourism, computer, mechanic, welding, agriculture, plumbing etc. to the Haitian people. We decided to create the Haiti New Life Ministries, Inc in 2012. under which umbrella we created New Life Technical College to create learning opportunities, and hope for the Haiti people. After learning from us, they would go back home, and create jobs for themselves. And this is exactly what is happening there. In 2022, under the Presidency of Dr. Gail Longbotham, we created The Messiah University, and opened doors and opportunities to those who are seeking a career with a Bachelor, Master or Doctorate degree from Haiti. 

Since our goal is to create a New Life for the Haitian people through the power of the Gospel, we invite you to please join us in this quest, and adventure for the Glory of God.
