History of Dei Gratia
Dei Gratia was started by a godly lady who was given a diagnosis of breast cancer. As she was receiving her chemo infusion one day, a friend gave her a beautiful bracelet. As she looked at the bracelet, she was reminded of the caring people around her and her loving God. It was this bracelet that gave her the idea of giving away items to cancer patients at area treatment centers as a form of encouragement and more importantly to give the Gospel.
Dei Gratia primarily exists to strengthen and encourage adults who are battling cancer. Patients are given a bag with items that show the love of God which includes a Bible and a tract. This unique ministry allows our church to minister to adults from different walks of life and different stages of health whom we may otherwise never have contact.
