Sometimes ministry begins by simply noticing a need—and choosing to meet it. ❤️

One of our first outreaches began with something as simple as hygiene kits. Soap. Toothbrushes. Toothpaste. Basic necessities that many of the indigenous refugees we were serving didn’t have access to—or had never been taught how to use.

With the help of translators bridging indigenous languages, Spanish, and Portuguese, those kits became more than supplies. They became an opportunity to sit together, communicate, build trust, and say:

We see you. We care about you. We’re here because we love you.

What began with meeting a practical need opened the door to relationship—and relationship opened the door to continued ministry.

🌎 Ministry Up the Amazon River

Ministry along the Amazon River means going where the need is—sharing the Gospel, teaching, equipping, and bringing awareness to issues like forced prostitution and human trafficking that impact vulnerable communities throughout the region.

And this work isn’t done alone.

Through partnerships with ministries like the ( Sociedade Bíblica do Brasil )Bible Society of Brazil, we’ve had opportunities to serve alongside those already reaching communities that can be incredibly difficult to access. Together, we’re able to bring biblical truth, practical education, and the hope of Jesus farther than we ever could on our own.

This is what partnership in ministry can look like: different organizations, different resources, but one desire to faithfully serve people and make Christ known.

Sometimes, a ministry begins in the simplest of places—a living room filled with prayer, preparation, and a willingness to go where God leads. 🙏

This is where the Proverbs 24:11 ministry began to grow as Krista and others prayed, trained, and prepared to reach individuals involved in prostitution in Belém, Brazil.

What began as part of Krista’s missionary work became something God used to deepen her heart for those who are marginalized and those carrying the weight of profound trauma and suffering. Those experiences would continue to shape the compassion and calling behind the work of Dia Gratia today.

And the ministry continues. ❤️

Today, Proverbs 24:11 remains a ministry of Calvary Belém, carried forward by faithful servants who continue reaching and caring for people in their community.

We’re grateful for the reminder that God can take prayers offered in a living room and use them to begin a work that reaches far beyond its walls.

They came carrying stories we wouldn’t fully understand until later.

Many of the Warao people we met had traveled from Venezuela through the Amazon, passing through Manaus before eventually reaching Belém. Some had lost family members along the way. Others had endured incredibly difficult journeys—experiences that took time for us to learn because of the language barriers between us.

When we first entered their home, the immediate needs were overwhelming. There was a need for food, resources, communication, and simply people willing to come alongside them.

They spoke their indigenous language, some spoke Spanish, and others were beginning to learn Portuguese. We didn’t have all the answers, but we could show up, listen, learn, serve, and allow God to build relationships across those barriers.

What began with recognizing a physical need became an opportunity to demonstrate the love of Christ in practical ways.

📖 Equipping. Serving. Sending.

Calvary Chapel Bible College in Campo Mourão, Paraná, Brazil, was once a place where many came to study God’s Word, grow in their faith, and prepare to serve the local church.

While the campus and school have changed ownership over the years, the impact of what God did there continues. The “arrows” sent out from that place are many—men and women who were equipped and then sent into churches, communities, and ministries to serve wherever God called them.

During our years as missionaries in northern Brazil, it was a privilege to spend time at the Bible college, teaching and serving alongside others who shared a heart for equipping the Church.

Ministry was never meant to be done alone. We’re grateful for every opportunity God has given us to come alongside others, share what He has taught us, and help equip His people to serve well.

Today, Dia Gratia continues that heart through faith-based counseling, training, and equipping the Church to care for people with truth and compassion.

Ministry begins with relationships.

One of the greatest privileges of serving the Warao people has been simply spending time together—listening, learning, and walking alongside them. Whether it's learning to make jewelry they can sell to support their families or listening to the Audio Bible in their own language, every moment is an opportunity to share the love of Christ in practical and meaningful ways.

Transformation often begins long before words are spoken. It begins with presence, trust, and genuine love.

"Little children, let us not love with word or with tongue, but in deed and truth." — 1 John 3:18 (NASB)

Thank you for partnering with Dia Gratia as we continue building relationships, making disciples, and serving communities with the hope of the Gospel.

Trauma touches more lives than we often realize—even within our churches. Yet many ministry leaders feel unprepared to walk alongside those carrying deep emotional wounds.

Dia Gratia’s Trauma Training equips churches, ministries, and Christian leaders to:

• Realize the widespread impact of trauma and how it shapes individuals, families, and communities
• Recognize the signs and effects of trauma on the body, mind, relationships, and spiritual life
• Respond with biblically grounded, trauma-informed care that reflects the compassion and truth of Christ
• Resist re-traumatization by creating ministries and relationships that foster safety, trust, dignity, and hope

Led by Krista Fox (M.A. Counseling; Doctorate in Community Care & Counseling: Traumatology, in progress), these trainings are designed to make trauma-informed, biblically grounded care practical and reproducible for your ministry.

If your church or organization is interested in hosting a training, visit www.diagratia.org or email [email protected] to learn more.

An 18-hour boat ride from Belém brought Kyle to Portel, where he had the opportunity to share at a missionary friend’s church anniversary.

Moments like this reflect the heart of Dia Gratia: coming alongside churches, missionaries, and ministry leaders to encourage, equip, and collaborate for the sake of the Gospel.

We are grateful for every open door to minister together and strengthen the work God is already doing through His Church.

What does Dia Gratia mean?

Simply put, it means "through grace."

Everything we do is rooted in the truth that lives are transformed not by our own strength, but by the grace of God. Whether we're equipping churches with trauma care, serving communities recovering from crisis, or walking alongside those who have experienced deep hurt, our prayer is that people would encounter the hope, healing, and redemption found through His grace.

"For by grace you have been saved through faith; and this is not of yourselves, it is the gift of God;" — Ephesians 2:8 (NASB)

Thank you for partnering with us as we seek to make Christ known around the world—through grace.

Sometimes God opens a door through simple obedience.

Krista first traveled to Porto Alegre, Brazil, serving alongside Samaritan's Purse Disaster Assistance Relief Team (DART) in the aftermath of a devastating flood. Through that connection, Samaritan's Purse asked Dia Gratia to become a ministry partner in a project to provide trauma training to churches and ministry leaders serving communities still recovering in that area.

It's a reminder that lasting recovery isn't only about rebuilding homes; it's also about helping restore hearts with the hope of Christ.

Thank you for praying for these opportunities to equip the Church to care for those carrying the weight of trauma.
