Property Purchased! Grace International School Secures Land for New Location…

A Major Miracle…

Grace International School Educational Foundation (GIESF), the legal organization under which GIS operates, purchased 86 rai of land for our planned new campus last week. That’s 2½ times the space we presently have!

If all the necessary funds were available today, we could be at the new site within 2-3 years. More immediately, as the remaining funds come in for The Saving Grace Project of $1.2 million USD, we’ll be able to:

  • Raise the height of the land and develop infrastructure on the property including electrical, drainage, sewer and water systems and roads.
  • Hire the Thai architect.
  • Build temporary classrooms, if necessary.
  • Begin the next phase of raising $7 million USD for the construction of buildings and other facilities.
  • The property will need to be backfilled and improved because it has been used for centuries to grow rice ...


    It’s very possible that people will begin speculating and buying land near the new campus. An undeveloped muubaan close by has many pieces of vacant property. Property right next to the school’s new location could also be available for purchase. Please be advised that, while we’re excited and confident about the future, Grace International School and GISEF take no responsibility for what might happen with land around the school’s new site and are making no promises regarding the timing of when the school will actually move.

    Significant Fundraising Remains…

    Please note that we still need to raise more than $1.2 million just to relocate the junior high and high school classes from the current building.  The goal is to generate these funds by the end of this school year (May 2011).  Please pray with us that people in the United States and across the globe will rally to help meet this huge financial need in order to continue Christian education for the hundreds of missionary children who are students at Grace!
