  • Clean Water for Life Programme

    Grace Children Ministries is on a mission to combat the pressing issue of clean water scarcity in rural and urban villages across Andhra Pradesh, India.

Recognizing the dire consequences of impure drinking water, including diseases like cholera and typhoid, GCM aims to drill 10 wells annually in these impoverished communities, reaching depths of 300 to 400 feet to access clean water.

Through church visitation, GCM supports 57 churches, with Pastor Praveen providing spiritual guidance. The organisation welcomes anointed pastors, missionaries, and evangelists from around the world to join in this endeavour. Additionally, GCM's Outreach Ministry actively reaches out to unsaved individuals through door-to-door visits, sharing the love of Jesus, and distributing Bibles. Its open-air meetings have witnessed transformations in the lives of many idol worshippers, making it an invitation for others to participate in spreading the gospel.
