The vision and mission of GraceWorld Foundation
Rev. Dr. Stephen Li, founder of GraceWorld Foundation
The vision of GraceWorld Foundation is the implementation of the largest and final vision of the apostle John (Revelation 7:9-10): Behold, there are a large group of people, and no one can count them. They come from all countries, all tribes, all ethnic groups, and all language groups. Wearing white robes and holding palm branches in their hands, they stood before the throne and the lamb, shouting loudly, “Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, belongs to the lamb!” The first Chinese character for vision「異」has「田」”field” on the top with「共」 “unite” beneath. It reminds us that when we “unite together in ploughing a field”, extraordinary fruits could be harvested. Rev Li founded the GraceWorld Foundation more than ten years ago. He bought a farmland at the foot of the Sleeping Beauty Mountain in Mae Sai of Chiang Rai in Thailand. By the grace of God and His work, the GraceWorld Mission Center was established in the area of the famous “Golden Triangle of Thailand”. Nearly a hundred “elite Christian soldiers” have been trained. Many of them have had the first-hand experience in mission fields and participate in missions, become missionaries and return to their own ethnic communities to reach out to their own people and make disciples for the Lord. This have enabled countless ethnic groups and people who speak all different languages to come to know and trust our Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, and the scapegoat prepared by God for the sins of all mankind.
