Grace Works Global

God worked mightily in Southern Asia in 2024 in the following areas. Humanitarian and Medical Aid. GraceWorks Global partnered with an in country organization to provide medical aid in a remote location to approximately 500 refugee families who had fled violence in their home communities. We also distributed food packets and female and children's hygiene products to these refugee families. Around 70 families, which include 350 individuals, have benefited from this relief. Water Purification systems. Water filters were distributed to nearly 200 family units, as well as several small communities. Additionally, 3 elementary schools, with attendance of more than 300 students, were provided with clean drinking water. Digital Literacy Program. GraceWorks Global began a digital literacy training program through Microsoft International. Through this program, we have registered 7800 students, and 6000 students have completed their basic computing fundamentals in the year 2024. Under Microsoft Certification we provided the following courses. CICF, Certificate in Information and Computing Fundamentals, CIMOA , Certificate in Microsoft Office Applications, and Coding. Adult Literacy Program: The need for literacy in remote locations is vital to helping people, both physically and spiritually. Through GraceWorks Global, around 1500 students began their literacy studies in 2024 and will complete them in 2025. When complete, these students will be able to read, write, sign legal documents, communicate in ways they were unable to do beforehand, and most importantly, be able to read and understand the Word of God. Leadership development. GraceWorks Global presented year two of our 5 year training program to 12 strategically located local pastors. They also received water filtration units and personalized mentoring throughout the year. Children's Ministry. GraceWorks Global believes that children matter greatly to Jesus, and they matter greatly to us as well. Because of this, much time is spent in ministering to their needs and giving them hope through Jesus. In 2024, children's programs were held throughout the year, with a total attendance, including families who participated, of approximately 4200 people. These events include food distribution as well as games and songs, but the heart of this ministry is that the Gospel is always shared with these families.

In the Philippines, GraceWorks Bible Church continues to thrive with weekly ministry to approximately 75 people. We also had 4 baptisms in 2024. The weekly ministry schedule also includes outreach to about 40 children and their families in 3 different impoverished communities. These children were provided with food and school supplies as well. In addition, one small hut was constructed for a blind woman who had been thrown out of her home

On the Hopi Reservation in Northern Arizona, GraceWorks Global conducted Church services regularly for 12 months, and provided food and clothing, for nearly 50 families. Six families were provided with water filtration systems. On multiple occasions, GraceWorks Global distributed a variety of household goods and furnishings to those in need, and assisted others with needed vehicle and home repair, as well as completely renovating the local park as an act of service to the community. One additional ministry began in 2024 and has grown into a large part of what we do, and that is firewood distribution. Many there do not have the means to heat their homes, and some still cook with wood stoves. Therefore, distributing firewood meets their physical needs and gives us the opportunity to build trust and share Christ with people who would not normally listen. In 2024, approximately 30 cords of wood were distributed to various families across the Hopi Nation.
