Guiding Principles

1. Our work is people-oriented and organized to have the earliest impact on the ground.
2. We follow biblical principles in fund raising, declaring the need; trusting God to supply the needs; and motivating members of the body of Christ contacted to give voluntarily and sacrificially.
3. Projects supported with GRA mission funds are evaluated from time to time to ensure that the Lord's expectations are met.
4. We work with mission agencies, churches or individual missionaries who:
   • are committed to evangelizing unreached people groups;
   • have a reasonable record of growth and viability;
   • are Evangelical and Pentecostal in their belief and operations;
   • have transparent leadership and are financially accountable to their members; and
   • possess a clear focus on church planting and discipleship among unreached peoples.
