Grace partners with missionaries all across the globe sharing the good news of Jesus, and we have multiple short-term trips each year to various countries.

Grace helps people grow as disciples in three main ways: Equipping, Engaging, and Exalting. The purpose of International Outreach is to engage. We are committed to saying yes when God tells us to "go."

Missions

At Grace we are committed to taking the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the world in two key ways:

  • We send our own.

We support dozens of missionaries, the majority of whom have been sent from Grace. Our long-term missionaries are our kids, our grandkids, our friends, our family, serving all over the globe.

  • We invest (y)our money wisely.

We believe that good financial stewardship means making wise investments. We don’t simply throw money at missions and call it good. Our Missions Team prayerfully works to vet potential new missionaries, to provide care and accountability for current missionaries, and to give leadership to the overall direction and strategy of our missions program at Grace, all in order to get the best possible return in God’s economy. When you give to Grace, 10% of your gift goes to supporting our long-term missionaries in the field. Beyond that 10%, each year we raise an additional $150k during our Missions Conference that we use to fund our partnerships, send short-term teams, and provide emergency support for our long-term missionaries. We’re a generous church and we believe deeply in missions. And we take the stewardship of the financial gifts God provides through your generosity seriously.

Missionaries

We partner with a variety of people and organizations around the globe. Our current missionaries are listed below. Unfortunately we cannot list those that are serving in secured areas. If you have a question that needs immediate attention, please contact the Missions team.

Meet Grace’s First Missionaries

From its beginning, Grace placed an emphasis on support of foreign missions. As efforts to begin the new church progressed, Bradford Lapsley, called “Tex”, and his wife Betty were raising support to go to Ethiopia under the Sudan Interior Mission (SIM). In June 1954, Grace Bible had approved Brad and Betty as its first missionaries at a support level of $25 per month.
