About Grace Intercontinental Mission
Raising Hope, Breaking Every Chain
Grace Intercontinental Mission exists to proclaim the hope of Jesus Christ, restore broken lives, equip believers, strengthen the Church, and advance God’s Kingdom across the nations. Every life we touch is an opportunity to demonstrate God’s grace, inspire hope, and witness the transforming power of the Gospel.
Founded on the conviction that no life is beyond God’s redemption, we are committed to reaching people with both the message and the love of Christ. Through evangelism, discipleship, leadership development, restoration, prayer, rehabilitation, and global missions, we strive to see individuals, families, churches, and communities transformed for the glory of God.
Who We Are
Grace Intercontinental Mission is a Christ-centered, Bible-believing ministry dedicated to fulfilling the Great Commission by reaching the lost, restoring lives, making disciples, equipping leaders, and serving communities with compassion. Since our founding in 2016, God has expanded this ministry from a single calling into a growing movement that serves across multiple states in India while extending its mission to nations around the world. Our work is driven by a simple belief: every person deserves the opportunity to experience the saving grace of Jesus Christ and discover the hope found in Him.
Whether through local outreach, leadership training, prayer ministries, rehabilitation, youth mentoring, or international missions, our desire remains the same—to see lives transformed by the Gospel and God’s Kingdom established in every community we serve.
Our Story
Grace Intercontinental Mission was founded on 8 April 2016 by Dr. K. Joy David Samuel, following a life-changing encounter with God’s saving grace. For many years, God repeatedly called Dr. Samuel into ministry, yet he struggled to fully surrender to that calling. Everything changed on 8 April 2016 during a devastating bus accident. In what could only be described as God’s divine intervention, he witnessed death standing before him. While many passengers sustained serious injuries, he walked away completely unharmed—not even a scratch.
In that defining moment, he surrendered his life to Jesus Christ, recognizing that God had preserved his life for a greater purpose. What began as a personal testimony of God’s mercy soon became a lifelong mission to share the hope of Christ with others. The ministry was established in Bangalore, India, with a vision to reach the unreached, restore broken lives, and equip believers to become faithful disciples of Jesus Christ. What started as a single act of obedience has grown into a ministry serving across multiple states in India and extending its reach to multiple nations across four continents.
Every outreach, every mission, every restored life, and every testimony stand as a reminder that God’s grace changes lives and that no chain is too strong for Christ to break.
Our Mission
To glorify God by proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus Christ, restoring broken lives, making disciples, equipping Christian leaders, strengthening churches, mobilizing prayer, and advancing God’s Kingdom through compassionate service and global missions.
Our Vision
To see lives transformed, communities restored, and churches strengthened, and nations impacted through the life-changing power of Jesus Christ, raising generations of faithful disciples who will carry the Gospel to the ends of the earth.
What Sets Us Apart
Grace Intercontinental Mission is more than an organization—it is a movement of believers committed to holistic transformation. Our ministry combines evangelism, discipleship, restoration, leadership development, prayer, rehabilitation, and global missions into one unified vision. We are passionate about reaching people at every stage of life, especially young people facing addiction and life-controlling challenges, helping them discover healing, freedom, and purpose through Jesus Christ.
Prayer is the heartbeat of our ministry. Through our Victory in Prayer (VIP) Teams, dedicated intercessors faithfully provide spiritual covering for ministry initiatives, churches, leaders, communities, and nations.
Rather than simply conducting events, we are committed to developing people, strengthening local churches, equipping leaders, and building sustainable Kingdom impact that continues long after each mission or outreach has concluded.
Our Impact
By God’s grace, what began in Bangalore has grown into a ministry with an expanding global footprint.
Today, Grace Intercontinental Mission has:
- Ministry presence across five states in India
- A network of approximately 50 pastors
- Three Bible Training Centers dedicated to equipping future Christian leaders

- Reached and ministered to more than 30,000 people across multiple nations and four continents
