Grace serves with TeachBeyond, an organization that is committed to spreading the good news of Jesus through transformational education. TeachBeyond’s mission is to “provide teaching and learning services in order to see individuals and communities become all God intends, promoting holistic personal growth and enduring social benefit.” They are partnered with schools around the world, and she will be serving in the Middle East at a school for missionary kids.

At the school, she will serve as a social studies teacher and help coach the cross country team. It is essential that students have a strong foundation in their faith before moving on to a job or college. She will also get to create a classroom environment where students build a solid community and have a safe place to grow. She has initially signed a one-year contract, but could be there longer if the Lord keeps the door open.
