GraceWorks Global

What it reported doing in 2025

Nicaragua: 2025 was year 4 of our 5-year discipleship training program, and 10 of our 12 pastors and church leaders were able to attend the training. We then held 3 more church leadership conferences in various areas, and these were well attended. We visited the northern area of nicaragua for the first time, and have now been invited to visit remote areas that typically do not welcome outsiders. We visited the school where we put in a well and the teachers and children were extremely thankful. We also completed a well in nandaime. We fed and clothed many needy nicaraguan families throughout the year. Philippines: graceworks bible church continues to thrive with weekly ministry to approximately 75 people. 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. The large project there this year was to construct 2 bathrooms for the church members to use. Hopi reservation in northern Arizona: graceworks global conducted church services regularly for 12 months, and provided food and clothing, for nearly 50 families, and we were privileged to baptize 1 adult and 1 adolescent (which is a difficult thing for a hopi to do). 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. Our firewood distribution ministry grew exponentially as many there do not have the means to heat their homes, and some still cook with woodstoves. 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 2025, approximately 20 very large trailer loads of wood were distributed to various families across the hopi nation. South asia: leadership development: graceworks global presented year 3 of our 5-year discipleship training program to 12 strategically located local pastors. They also received water filtrationunits and personalized mentoring throughout the year these 12 pastors oversee more than 25 different churches and ministries, serving more than 7000 people total. Water purification systems: water filters were distributed to nearly 15 family units and were distributed by our discipleship pastors. Digital literacy program: graceworks global began a digital literacy training program in 2024 through microsoft international and this has continued to be a successful ministry through 2025 under microsoft certification we provided the following courses: cicf (certificate in information and computing fundamentals cimoa (certificate in microsoft office applications) coding childrens ministry: in 2025, our local worker held childrens programs throughout the year.
