God's Grace & Mercy Across Nations (GMAN)

What God's Grace & Mercy Across Nations (GMAN) does

God's Grace & Mercy Across Nations (GMAN) is a private Christian non-profit ministry founded on June 17, 2006 by Apostle Michael Elaigwu in Odessassa Ugbokolo, Benue State, Nigeria, following a claimed divine revelation. The organization operates outdoor evangelism crusades, prison ministry, youth empowerment, women's ministries, educational programs, and community outreach targeting community members seeking spiritual growth, youth, women, incarcerated individuals, and vulnerable populations (widows, orphans, and the less privileged). Its primary programmatic offerings include revival crusades, the GMAN Extra Moral School (founded 2011), GMAN Digital World (founded 2013, a youth skill-acquisition program), and an Evangelism Training Program.

The ministry's geographic footprint spans Nigeria (national secretariat in Jos, Plateau State), Canada (operational headquarters in North York, Ontario; mailing address in Vaughan), the United Kingdom (Leeds, Basingstoke, London tours in 2023), Uganda (Jinja crusade in 2024), and Pakistan (Peshawar crusade in October 2025 with co-organizer International Voice Of God Ministries). Distribution is event-driven: large outdoor crusades, weekly prayer gatherings, prison visits at Jos National Prison Yard and Otukpo Custodian Centre, and direct community distributions of food, clothing, and scholarships.

GMAN's business model combines donation-based funding with unit-priced event registration fees ranging from $50 (weekly prayer gathering) to $180 (community outreach/mission fair). Revenue, headcount, and financial figures are not disclosed. The technology footprint is minimal — a WordPress-based website (gmans.org) for information dissemination, event listings, and online donations, plus a TikTok social profile (@gmanministry). There is no proprietary technology platform, no mobile applications, no API infrastructure, and no disclosed AI capabilities. Leadership comprises Apostle Michael Elaigwu as founder and Evangelist Mrs Theresa Michael Elaigwu as co-leader, with no external investors, parent entity, or institutional backers.
