Life Skills and Money Management at House of Grace

Global Servants

According to a  Cambridge University Study, most children form their core financial habits by age seven. 

These habits stay with them into adulthood. Children can recognize the value of money and count it out. They understand that it can be exchanged for things they want and develop an understanding of and appreciation of the need for an income.

At House of Grace, we work diligently to teach the girls to know and love God and follow His ways. Encouraging them to honor God with their money is important. As we head into the holiday season, every girl at House of Grace Thailand and House of Grace Ghana will receive $60 as a Christmas gift. This gift is included as part of the sponsor’s $100 monthly commitment of support and requires nothing additional from sponsor families. In addition, every girl receives $40 as a birthday gift in July. Each girl is in charge of how to give and spend her own money. Our girls get the satisfaction of choosing where they want to give a tithe. Whether it’s a church offering, a donation in school chapel, or a gift for someone in need, the girls find joy in giving back to God and others less fortunate than themselves. Likewise, if there is something they would like to buy, they must find out how much it costs and decide whether it is worth saving for. The girls value their purchases much more when they must save up for them. We teach the importance of saving part of their money toward long-term needs.


Some of our sponsors have received thank-you letters informing them that their sponsor daughter has chosen to save a portion of her birthday money. Our girls come from an atmosphere where saving money is not a priority. Some girls come from homes where every penny earned from minimal daily wages is spent on drugs or used for basic survival needs. Even using a bank is a new concept for some tribal girls. Some girls may be the first in their families to have a savings account.


We are excited to announce that all of the girls at House of Grace Thailand eligible to have a savings account have obtained one. They are so proud of their savings account books and look forward to the opportunity to make deposits into those accounts. The idea of saving for the future is a new concept for our girls, made possible because of the support of donors and sponsors like you. In Ghana, the banking rules and regulations are different. We are working diligently to establish a savings plan that the girls can access. At this time, the dorm mothers keep accounts for the girls and help them to budget their money. Financial literacy education for our girls is the same in Ghana as in Thailand.


Thank you for your ongoing support of Global Servants. Your donation is a representation of Mark 4:8 – you are financially sowing into good ground that will bring forth the highest yield.


Together we are Saving Little Girls for Big Destinies!

At Global Servants, we believe clean water should never be a privilege—it is a basic need and a God-given right. Through our Clean Water Initiative, we are providing families with simple yet powerful filtration systems that transform unsafe water into safe, drinkable water. How the Filtration System Works Each system uses gravity to push water through an advanced filter specifically designed to remove 99.9999% of bacteria, protozoa, and cysts, as well as 100% of microplastics. With just a standard container and a drilled opening, this system can provide safe drinking water for a family in minutes. The kit includes: A high-capacity filter Drill bit for setup Filter hanger and hose Adapters and connection pieces A backwashing device for cleaning Instruction sticker for easy care Whether families draw water from a muddy river or catch rainwater in a cistern, the system ensures harmful pathogens are removed. Even heavily contaminated water becomes safe to drink, though cleaning the filter more often is recommended when muddy water is used. Built to Last One of the most remarkable features of this system is its durability. Each filter can process up to 100,000 gallons of water, providing families in need with many months of safe drinking water. In fact, filters like these are already in use in over 100 countries. Some have been operating effectively for more than a decade.  Every filter is tested three times during the production process, sealed for safety, and individually inspected to ensure consistent quality. Extensive testing means that when we deliver a system to a family, we can trust that it will provide reliable, life-changing clean water.

This accreditation reflects our ongoing commitment to uphold the highest standards of financial integrity, accountability, and transparency in every aspect of our ministry. The ECFA accreditation is awarded only to organizations that meet the Seven Standards of Responsible Stewardship, which include sound financial management, responsible governance, transparency, and ethical fundraising practices. Michael Martin, President and CEO of ECFA, congratulated Global Servants: “Stories of triumph begin with trust. Your ongoing commitment to ECFA's Seven Standards of Responsible Stewardship signals to a watching world that yours is a ministry worth trusting.” For more than four decades, Global Servants has sought to honor God by serving people through ministries in West Africa and Southeast Asia — including the Houses of Grace, Clean Water Initiatives, Education Programs, and Evangelism and Leadership Development. This accreditation is a meaningful reminder that integrity and stewardship are foundational to every mission we undertake. “For we are taking pains to do what is right, not only in the eyes of the Lord but also in the eyes of man.” — 2 Corinthians 8:21 (NIV) Why This Matters When you give to Global Servants, you can do so with confidence knowing that your gifts are managed with integrity and used to advance the Gospel and transform lives. ECFA accreditation affirms that Global Servants is committed to responsible stewardship in every donation, project, and outreach effort.
