Our story

It began with one invitation to church

In 1963, a young John Gabriel left Kerala for America. A high school student invited him to church in California — and it changed his life. After coming to faith and studying at Boise Bible College, John returned to India to start a church in a member’s home.

That small beginning became Kerala Christ Church Mission. In 2014, friends who had served alongside the mission for decades formed Global Missions International so supporters in the United States could partner with the work.
