GRA Impact

It's all about impacting this groaning creation with God’s omnipotent word. What impact will you have on the world for Christ? What will your life count for? Those are the questions that need honest answers. Because the team God has brought together at God’s Remnant Assembly Mission Squad cares passionately about these questions, we're a committed and competent bunch. We tend to attract like-minded people. Your reading this is just one step in discovering if you're such a person.

The most important criterion we have in searching for short termers in GRA is that they have a passion for reaching the world for Christ. GRA’s overriding objective is to help raise up a new generation of radically committed disciples. The primary means we employ to do so is through short-term missions. GRA is a fast-growing organization with many exciting opportunities to make a great impact. If you're like me, you really want your life to count for the kingdom.

If you share this heart for reaching the lost, have good people skills, and are a self-starter, then we'd be interested in talking with you further. As a faith mission, please realize that most of our staff raise support. We have a number of positions available. If you'd like to know more about them or about GRA as an organization, please contact us.

Sponsor

Missionaries select GRA Mission Squad as their mission agency for a number of reasons including its focus on the least-reached for Christ, its flexibility in tailoring missionary assignments, and the opportunity to participate in multicultural teams. GRA’s vision, youthfulness, and decentralized leadership structure are attractive. Often, a missionary’s sending church will recommend that they join GRA Mission Squad because the church considers the mission to be a reliable ministry partner.

God's Remnant Assembly, Inc. is a 501(3)(c) tax exempt non-profit organization dedicated to making a difference where it counts in the continents of Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. We seek to disciple as Jesus did – our vision is that God would use us to raise up a generation of radically committed disciples of Jesus Christ. We believe that by giving people the opportunity to hold orphans, bring hope to the hopeless, and pray for the sick, lives are transformed.

“And, behold, there was a man named Joseph, a counsellor; and he was a good man, and a just: (The same had not consented to the counsel and deed of them;) he was of Arimathaea, a city of the Jews: who also himself waited for the kingdom of God. This man went unto Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. And he took it down, and wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a sepulchre that was hewn in stone, wherein never man before was laid.” Lk 23: 50-53.
“Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me:” Heb 10: 5.

If your response is yes, please DONATE now.

Ninety percent of our graduates minister in places where the Gospel has never been preached before. Our distinctive is not our methodology, but our church-focused vision.

Join This Chariot

Admonition from Dr. 'Tayo Brown:

We are delighted that you are considering joining us at one of our prayer sessions or on our mission trip. We trust that during your visit, your life will never remain the same again.

You know the harsh reality still remains that 2.7 billion people of our generation are still unreached with the Gospel. What answers are we prepared to give to the living God when He asks of the blood of these multitudes on our hands? During your visit we believe you will have the great privilege of helping the unreached billions come to know Jesus and in exchange you will leave hope with thanksgiving in your hearts and smile on your face for the immediate answers to your prayers by FIRE.

If we will commit to live for what is eternal, this generation can be reached with the Gospel. We pray that God's Remnant Assembly (Mission Squad) will become like a bridge, giving you the opportunity to walk away from your own preoccupations to the harvest fields of the unreached nations and see the perishing multitudes through the eyes of Jesus. Our Vision is to make a significant difference in the world as disciples of Jesus Christ. We want people of all ages to hear and respond to the living God’s call by using their skills, abilities, and money to make a difference in the world as disciples of Jesus Christ.

As you join us, may you allow God to use your life to change the destiny of millions through your prayers and partnership with GRA Mission Squad. Hundreds of years from now, you will be glad you did! Selah!

      

Friends of Arabs, Asia, and Middle East Nations

Our Persecuted brethren in these nations are crying out for our prayers as they are always under severe pressure. They are not praying for comfort and escape - but to testify to the grace and faithfulness of God. That is why FAMAN of GRA Mission Squad is equipping believer all around the world to stand with the ARAB, MIDDLE EAST AND ASIA NATIONS in prayers, for there is no greater love than for a man to lay down His life for His friends. FAMAN is a multifaceted, multiracial and trans-denominational resource center that is in pursuit of God's predetermined purpose for the Arab, Middle East and Asia world to become part of the Body of Christ by proclaiming Jesus Christ as Lord.

“And thus I make it my ambition to preach the gospel, not where Christ has already been named, lest I build on someone else's foundation, but as it is written, Those who have never been told of Him will see, and those who have never heard will understand” Romans 15:20-21.

Our temptation as Christians is to focus on our own lives and not much beyond the life of our church because we intimately know the needs of our immediate family and the needs of our church. But we have not been called to be just an active member of our small Christian circle, but we are called to the ends of the earth. Our mission field is as big as the earth is round...and so is our Christian family! If you go on an international mission trip to any of the nations of the Arab world or Asia continent, you will see this truth firsthand. We really are one family in Christ and it is a joy to know that we all love and serve the same God.

FAMAN communicates biblical truths concerning apostolic church planting, prophetic insights into the Church's destiny, proven and unique avenues of evangelistic outreach, models of pastoral feeding and care, and the necessity for teaching within the local church for equipping all the saints for the work of the ministry.
FAMAN is a multifaceted, multiracial and trans-denominational resource center that is in pursuit of God's predetermined purpose for the Arab, Middle East and Asia world to become part of the Body of Christ by proclaiming Jesus Christ as Lord.
FAMAN “Bridge Builder” program is centered on establishing, equipping and helping mature and vibrant churches among the Muslims of the Arab World, and also the Hindus, Buddhist and Communist people of the Asia nations wherever they are found.

How do we now treat the members of our own family in the Arab and Asia world?

A Network of effective and fervent prayer mobilization: For those whom we love, don’t we pray for them regularly? For the pastor’s wife whose husband was killed because he preached the Gospel, who is our sister, we can strengthen and encourage her through our prayers. For the teenager sentenced to hard labor in a prison camp for reading her Bible, we can pray that she receives hope. For the son excommunicated from his family for following Christ, we can pray that he receives love and acceptance from his heavenly family. Prayer is always the first request as friends of Arabs, Middle East and Asia Nations – FAMAN.

FAMAN ADVOCACY: Our Advocacy program enables ordinary Christians like you and me to help share information about the mission ministry of GRA Mission Squad and other viable missionary agencies with these nations, thereby networking God-given relationships among families, ministry, churches, businesses, corporations, private organizations and non-governmental organizations.

Our Christian family in the Arab, Middle East and Asia Nations often do not have a voice because they are politically discriminated against as a minority. But we can make a difference through advocacy and networking God given relationships on their behalf hence we become their voice. The voice of one crying in the wilderness.

FAMAN Unreached peoples really need advocates like you within the Kingdom of God learning about them, praying for them specifically, and calling for co-operation in loving and strategic initiatives. Now longer shall the old addage "out of sight, out of mind" be true of the Church. FAMAN advocates bring the unreached peoples clearly into Churches, organizations, corporations, businesses, and many other groups. Each people group is like a field with a treasure buried or hidden in it. That treasure of course is God's unique plan for salvation for those people. Few however are willing to buy that field because many have not really seen the hidden treasure. FAMAN advocates can make them see the treasure especially as regard sowing into the same by purchasing the field - giving toward the salvation of souls in among the unreached peoples. We can learn about them, link up other fortunate people with them (Network) and Love them.

As a FAMAN advocate we develop a unique network among kingdom resources and then link the right resources with the right opportunities. Faman Advocates seek for others with potential interest in these chosen people and help them into ministry. These are individuals who will work as a team, building relationships of trust and partnership with people from other churches, denominations, traditions, approaches and countries. FAMAN advocates cut across the barrier which have kept the unreached peoples unreached. FAMAN advocates invest much of their time in communication: sharing information about these unreached chosen people group, their needs, opportunities for ministry among them and many more as they personally express a God-given passion for these unreached chosen people of God because of this letters, phone, fax, e-mails are all of great value to Faman advocates.

FAMAN CHURCH MOBILIZATION: To be a blessing to the Arab, Middle East and Asia Nations especially the persecuted Christians serving the unreached in these nations, our churches must also get involved. FAMAN helps to promote Prayer for the unreached nations. We carefully work together with Churches to make the Church relevant and effective in the nations by making the Church to recognize that our calling goes far beyond the four walls of where we meet weekly for worship. We are vital members of the ever-increasing growing kingdom of God and we are enlisted as the Lord’s foot soldier on this earth to express this growing Kingdom of God throughout the whole world. FAMAN coordinators will help raise funds for short and long-term mission trips and on the ground missionaries to the Arab, Middle East and Asia Nations. They will work with churches, colleges/universities, private schools, businesses, non-governmental and governmental entities and other groups to create awareness, mobilization and help.

PRESENCE MOBILIZATION: We express our love for our families by spending time with them. FAMAN creates opportunities for Christians all around the world especially here in the west to visit our persecuted brothers and sisters throughout the world. There is no substitute for the building of friendships and strengthening the familial bonds than meeting face-to-face. This tangible expression of love powerfully communicates to our family in this part of the world that they are not alone, but that they have a far larger family than what their eyes can see. FAMAN coordinators all around the world will always help to encourage you to consider going on one of our “Ends of the Earth” trips. You’ll know firsthand what being “blessed to be a blessing” really means.

FAMAN will empower missionaries, Christians, churches and the yet to be evangelized people of the Arab, Middle East and Asia countries to thrive in spite of severe persecution by simply:

• Praying
• Encouraging
• Helping others in need
• Speaking out through our Voice for the Voiceless advocacy program

“In that day there will be a Highway from Egypt to Assyria. The Assyrians will go to Egypt and the Egyptians to Assyria. The Egyptians and Assyrians will worship together. In that day Israel will be the third, along with Egypt and Assyria, a blessing on the earth. The LORD Almighty will bless them, saying, 'Blessed be Egypt my people, Assyria my handiwork, and Israel my inheritance." Isaiah 19:23-25.
"I will praise you among the nations, O Lord" Psalm 18:49
