It was Easter and a 6 hour drive turned into 13 hours.
We all loved holding the babies. :-)

At Grace Ministries, we believe every girl is created with purpose, dignity, and immense potential. Our mission is to provide teenage girls in Kumi, Uganda with access to education that nurtures both the mind and spirit. Through Bible study, life skills training, and essential supplies, we equip young women to grow in faith, confidence, and capability.
We also support the ongoing operation of RuthParent Elementary and Nursery School—a school we built to serve the children of Kumi with quality education and a foundation of hope. By investing in these girls and their education, we aim to shift cultural perceptions and affirm their value within their families and communities.
🌍 Why It Matters~In many parts of Uganda, girls face barriers to education and opportunity. Grace Ministries stands in the gap—offering not just resources, but a renewed vision of what’s possible when girls are empowered to lead, learn, and thrive.
🙏 How You Can Help~We cannot do this alone. Your partnership makes all the difference. Please consider:
-
Praying for our ministry and the girls we serve
-
Donating to help cover school operations and program costs
-
Sharing our mission with others who care about global transformation
Together, we can raise up a generation of young women who will bless their communities and glorify God through their lives.
