In 2004, the ministry team from Victory Bible Church saw the burden of a lack of education weighing on 15 homeless children and decided to start a school to meet this need.
Today Grace Emmanuel School continues to provide a low-cost, quality education for students from the poorest families in the community, desiring with education, healthy mentoring relationships, and Scripture to transform lives to abundance in Christ.
GES is completely funded by student sponsors and other donors.
