In Northern Georgia, families and individuals are facing real, ongoing struggles—not just with putting food on the table, but with finding lasting hope, stability, and purpose. At Ministries of Grace, we exist to meet those needs head-on, providing wholistic, faith-based solutions that go beyond short-term fixes. Rooted in the love of Christ and grounded in community, we work every day to break the cycle of poverty in Forsyth County, Dawson County, and Cumming, GA.
As a Christian nonprofit organization, everything we do flows from our mission to live out the Gospel through action. Our work encompasses hunger relief, job training, financial literacy, and community-based care. But we know transformation doesn’t come from programs alone—it comes from relationships, from consistency, and from the power of faith applied to real life.
Let’s take a closer look at what makes Ministries of Grace a leading Christian charity organization in Georgia, and how each area of our mission plays a vital role in restoring lives.
Faith at the Center: What Sets Christian Charities Apart
When people search for ways to make a difference, many turn to nonprofits. But what sets a Christian charity apart is its core motivation: faith. At Ministries of Grace, our service is grounded in Scripture and lived out through compassion. We believe that every person has inherent dignity and worth because they are made in the image of God. That belief shapes how we deliver every meal, teach every class, and walk alongside every individual in need.
To understand this distinction more deeply, we explore how Christian charities offer more than practical help—they offer eternal hope. Read more about what sets Christian charities apart »
Putting Faith into Action
Faith without works is dead—and we take that truth seriously. At Ministries of Grace, we don’t just talk about loving our neighbors; we build programs and relationships that prove it. Whether we’re providing groceries, job coaching, or financial guidance, each touchpoint is a reflection of God’s love in motion.
Our work exemplifies how Christian nonprofits can live out the Gospel in tangible, transformative ways. Explore how faith comes to life in our work »
The Biblical Call to Serve the Poor
Helping the poor isn’t just a good idea—it’s a biblical mandate. From Proverbs to the teachings of Jesus, Scripture is clear: we are called to care for those in need. Ministries of Grace takes that command seriously, using biblical principles to guide our service and our vision for transformation.
In our breakdown of the biblical basis for Christian charity, we share why we serve, and why that calling is as relevant today as it has ever been. Discover the biblical call to serve the poor »
