International

Each year, we venture deep into remote African villages, carrying the life-changing message of the Kingdom of Heaven with power and purpose. In places often untouched by traditional outreach, we witness miracles unfold—hearts healed, bodies restored, and hope awakened.

Our mission includes more than just preaching. We provide daily meals to those in need, host Spirit-charged, open-air crusades that draw massive crowds, and lead free pastoral training conferences to equip local leaders with practical tools and supernatural empowerment. These gatherings are filled with revelation, impartation, and the unmistakable presence of God.

Time and again, we see pastors reignited, the sick healed, and the oppressed set free—each moment revealing Jesus as King and drawing entire communities into His presence.

Whether you're in a bustling city or a rural village, this platform will be a place to learn, connect, and be encouraged. Together, we’ll sharpen our gifts, strengthen the Body of Christ, and expand the gospel with boldness and clarity.

Get ready—Global Connect is more than a platform; it’s a movement. We can’t wait to grow with you and see lives and nations transformed for the Kingdom!

Motorcycles for Ministers

One of our heartfelt initiatives at Encounters of Grace Ministries is to provide motorcycles for rural pastors. Many of these faithful ministers live and serve in some of the poorest and most remote villages, where reliable transportation is nearly nonexistent. For some, even owning a bicycle is considered a luxury.

We believe it’s time to bless those who are tirelessly laboring in the Gospel. A motorcycle becomes a life-changing gift—allowing pastors to reach more villages with the Good News, while also creating a source of income by enabling them to offer transportation services. Each motorcycle we place into the hands of a bush pastor is more than a vehicle—it’s an evangelical tool, a ministry lifeline, and a practical expression of the love of Christ. Our goal is to equip and empower as many ministers as possible, enabling them to go further, faster, and more frequently with the Gospel message.

"Every gift brings the Gospel closer. A $2,000 motorcycle can reach thousands. Will you help us send one?"

Sharing Bread

One of the greatest joys of ministry in rural Africa is sharing a meal with the people in the villages we serve. This year, during our multi-week mission trip, we will be providing a hot midday meal to everyone who attends—two days in each of 18 villages, for a total of 36 days of feeding. That’s 7,000 to 10,000 meals served to the hungry.

For many, this meal is a rare feast. For others, it may be their only meal of the day. Throughout the year, we also supply rice and beans to villages facing famine or food shortages—because no family should have to go without.

You can be part of this powerful expression of love. When you support "Sharing Bread with the Villages" through a monthly donation, you join hands with us in a very tangible way—bringing nourishment, joy, and hope to some of the world’s most vulnerable.

All monthly supporters receive our bimonthly newsletter, filled with stories, photos, and updates that show exactly how your support is changing lives.

Family helping family. Join us in feeding the villages.

Fred’s Miracle: A Stroke Survivor Encounters the Healer

Three years after a devastating stroke left the right side of his body paralyzed, Fred shuffled up to my door—dragging his leg, his arm limp at his side. His face was marked with quiet desperation. I welcomed him in and watched as he lowered himself onto my couch with great effort. When I asked what brought him, his response was simple, but charged with raw faith:

“I want Jesus to heal me.”

We prayed.

And then—it happened.

Fred’s eyes widened. “I feel something!” he exclaimed. Power surged through his body like electricity. Right before my eyes, his once-stiff leg stretched out straight. He stood up. Wobbled. Took a step. Then another.

Suddenly, he began walking—then pacing—then walking in fast circles around the room, his movements gaining speed and strength. Then, shockingly, he began jumping. Not stumbling. Not struggling. Jumping. Over and over, with joy on his face.

Tears streamed down his cheeks as he fell to his knees in worship. And there, in that holy moment, strength returned to his lifeless right arm. He placed both hands on the floor and, to our amazement, began doing push-ups—something he hadn’t done in years.

Fred left that day not just walking—but running, leaping, praising God, and fully healed. His body was restored. His spirit revived. He walked out as living proof that Jesus still heals today.
