Gracci Research Analytic Christian Charitable Institute
Vision
In 2004, a former resident of Nagpur, India, and member of Crosswalk Church, Abraham Geevarghese, started a ministry called GRACCI, a Christian orphanage for impoverished children. After moving to America, Abraham literally saved his pennies to purchase a building in the heart of Nagpur to serve as the children’s home. Since then, a small school has emerged for Pre-K through First Grade children, along with a food ministry for starving families. In addition, a church has been planted, and people in the city and surrounding 42 villages are hearing the good news of Jesus, led by Abraham’s brother, Pastor Philip Geevarghese. A plot of land is currently being developed, including a newly built church and plans for a home for the elderly/orphanage, a medical clinic, and a much larger school. God is at work, and we are excited to be a part of it!
Mission
For us at GRACCI, you are our most treasured people of God. We highly value your presence and cheerful sacrificial gift, even if it may be the least of the coin, as each penny of yours is a powerful gift that impacts millions of unseen souls. We believe each moment and each little contribution you make in GRACCI is like those five loaves of bread and two small fishes in the hands of the God of the universe. Hallelujah!
We always praise and thank God for all our precious leaders, prayer warriors, caregivers, and donors for their kind thoughts and contributions towards the massive task of sharing the good news of the gospel to all the individuals of the world as commanded in the Living Word by our Loving Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Together, we can make a difference in the lives of millions of people by helping them attain the fullness of life in God, our Savior and Lord, by walking for them the extra mile, which will facilitate their movement and growth in the newness of life. Thank you!
STAR FISH
One day a man was walking along the beach when he noticed a boy picking something up and gently throwing it into the ocean.
Approaching the boy, he asked, "What are you doing?"
The youth replied, "Throwing starfish back into the ocean. The surf is up, and the tide is going out. If I don't throw them back, they'll die."
"Son," the man said, "don't you realize there are miles and miles of beach and hundreds of starfish? You can't make a difference!"
After listening politely, the boy bent down, picked up another starfish, and threw it back into the surf. Then, smiling at the man, he said,
"I made a difference for that one."
