about us
It all started when the Lord spoke to ricky
Healing is something I ordained from the beginning. I don’t want people to think I’m holding them hostage by the things I have already provided for them. I want everyone to come to me out of their desire to know me, not out of fear of being without something. Healing is for the masses, for the Nations, for the whole earth. Too often people forget that was my plan from the beginning and provisions are already in the earth for people to tap into them.
Moore Grace Ministries (MGMInc) was birthed from that word from the Lord. MGMInc promotes social well-being for the public good. Founded on the Gospel of Jesus Christ, MGM's mission is to advance human flourishing and community sustainability through strategic projects, services and resources.
Our focus is on peacebuilding. Peace as defined by the Hebrew word “shalom”. Shalom is a big and expansive word. It means nothing is out of place, nothing is missing, there is soundness, harmony, wholeness, contentment and prosperity. We believe our ministry is called to share relational shalom by God’s grace.
