ACME Reflection

Grace Rancho is part of a newer association of churches all around the world that have partnered together to be as strategic as possible in order to advance the gospel to the nations (ACME). I know that as a church member reading this short article, you may find yourself wondering if this “new” organization is really “new” at all. But as we laid our heads down for the final night of the 2025 National ACME Conference, I couldn’t help but think about just how strategic being a part of ACME is for the members of Grace Rancho. In just the first 2 years of ACME existing, over $900k of funds have been distributed to church revitalizations, new church plants, existing churches needing support, training a new generation of leaders, translating the Bible into new languages, and much more. Above all, all the churches joined to ACME are zealous to see healthy churches in places that have never heard the name of Jesus Christ. Come ask me, Frank Aguirre, Pastor Eric, or Hans van Velzer about the highlight of our trip!
