Serve The World

We SERVE, relying on Christ, to make a spiritual and personal impact on those around the world who we are called to help. Globally, we partner to spread God’s love and care via our missionary partners on the ground that are represented by need as well as a geographic location. Some partnerships are for a season, a year, or for several years. They often include significant financial support and sending teams to serve alongside the ministry or missionary.

Christopher and Grace Mancillas

Christopher and Grace, with their son Andreas, will be serving in college ministry at Utrecht University in the Netherlands. Christopher grew up in Houston and was raised going to church here at Grace. After graduating from college in 2014, he moved to West Virginia to help start a campus ministry at West Virginia University (WVU), where he met Grace. Grace grew up in West Virginia and, after graduating from WVU, starting working with the same ministry. They married in 2019 and Andreas was born in 2023. In May of 2024, they transitioned to world missions and are currently preparing for their first two years in the Netherlands starting in January. They have a huge heart for college students and are excited to take to the Netherlands what they’ve learned and experienced here in the U.S. Although the Netherlands has a rich history of Christianity, it is now bound by the secular worldview, with over half the population denying the existence of any god, and the percentage of evangelical Christianity at only 4% of the population. Their hope is, through reaching college students for Jesus, the Netherlands will be changed from Utrecht.

Misha Mihaylova

Born in Bulgaria, I was raised in a nominal Christian-Orthodox family. I became a new born Christian when I was a teenager, and my role models became people who went to the most remote places of the earth to tell people about Jesus. Their lives inspired me and challenged me to pursue a career that would expand God’s Kingdom. I am currently on staff with YWAM (Youth With a Mission) Budapest, connected with the Coffeehouse Ministry Center. I am the DTS (Discipleship Training School) coordinator for Central Europe and I lead the discipleship training programs at YWAM Budapest.
I was welcomed to be part of the Grace family in Houston in 2014 and became an honorary member of the Frownbusters Clowning ministry team. It’s been a blessing to journey together with you through the friendships I found at Grace, your support and prayers. Thank you!
My prayer for you is from Ephesians 3:17-19, “I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.”

Steve and Barbara Johnson

Steve and Barbara have served in Budapest, Hungary with Youth With A Mission (YWAM) since 1994. Their first outreach to Hungary was in 1991, two years after the fall of communism. They were following their dream and God's invitation into world missions. Their hearts were captured by the Hungarian youth who were disillusioned and searching for meaning and truth. After three years of training in Amsterdam they moved to Budapest to help establish a YWAM base. Now, after raising five children in Hungary, they are entering a new phase of life and ministry, yet their vision is the same: to reach the lost with the good news of Jesus and to disciple young believers. This is being accomplished through a wide spectrum of activities including running a coffee house, evangelistic street meetings, Bible studies, homelesss ministry, music, arts and a 6-month Discipleship Training School. They currently have a team of 16 full-time ministry staff from nine different nations. Steve serves as the team leader and is also part of a core leadership team that covers the 16 nations of YWAM Centerl Europe.

Juan Constantino Santiago

Constantino currently lives in Guatemala and is part of the Grace en Español ministry called “Fe Maya.” He is a “retired” teacher of 27 years with 22 years in Guatemala and five in Colorado. While working as a teacher in Colorado, Constantino received God’s call on his heart to reach children in his homeland and provide them with school supplies while presenting the Gospel. The “Fe Maya” mission was born! He works hard to serve the extremely poor Mayan children in the rural mountains of western Guatemala. God has blessed the work in this region. The children are better equipped to attend school. Many churches have been started, and new believers have been brought into the Kingdom! Constantino has four adult children: Jenny, Allan, Aliri and Isabel. They all live here in the States and assist him in his Guatemala mission work.
