Mission Statement

Grace Initiatives exists to empower expectant young women to prepare for their future and their children's future by providing housing, counseling and life-skills training.

Description

Grace Initiatives began in 2004 as a solution to the housing difficulties created by unplanned pregnancy. Our clients are women, ages 15-22, facing an unplanned pregnancy and in need of housing.

We offer housing through a network of shepherding homes in Ocean County, New Jersey. We also offer counseling, life-skills training, pregnancy and childbirth education, Bible study, mentoring and recreational opportunities in our Counseling & Training Center, Grace's Place.

Our Counseling & Training Center is open M, W, Th and Friday 12 pm-5 pm and Mon and Tues evenings 6:30-8:30 pm

Organizational Statement of Faith

Statement of Faith

1. We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible authoritative Word of God.

2. We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

3. We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory.

4. We believe that for the salvation of the lost and sinful man, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential, and that this salvation is received through faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord and not as a result of good works.

5. We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life and to perform good works.

6. We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost, they that are saved unto the resurrection of life and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.

7. We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
