GDMMissions’ most prominent ministry takes place abroad.  Since GDMMissions' inception in 1996 the mission has served in over twenty countries partnering with missionaries, national pastors, and local bodies of believers with the goals of evangelizing, discipling, and assisting in the establishment of God-honoring New Testament churches.

Dr. Paul Brand (medical worker among lepers) wrote the following in his book, Fearfully and Wonderfully Made:

[Jesus] reached out His hand and touched the eyes of the blind, the skin of the person with leprosy, and the legs of the cripple… I have sometimes wondered why Jesus so frequently touched the people He healed, many of whom must have been unattractive, obviously diseased, unsanitary, smelly.  With His power, He easily could have waved a magic wand… But He chose not to.  Jesus’ mission was not chiefly a crusade against disease… but rather a ministry to individual people, some of whom happened to have a disease.  He wanted those people, one by one, to feel His love and warmth and His full identification with them.  Jesus knew He could not really demonstrate love to a crowd, for love usually involves touching.
