Global Ministries Endowment Fund

Eden Grace has served FUM since 1992 as a board representative, member of our field staff, and as Director of Global Ministries. During her tenure with FUM, Eden worked with John Muhanji in opening the African Ministries Office. She empowered the leaders of the Samburu and Turkana Friends Missions and established the Girl Child Education Program. Following post-election violence in 2007, Eden worked with Kenyan Friends to start the Friends Church Peace Teams. During her time as Director of Global Ministries, she envisioned the Living Letters Program and implemented the ministry plan for Belize Friends Ministries, and much more. 

Getry Agizah, Coordinator of Friends Church Peace Team, spoke of Eden’s legacy of empowering African women. Nikki Holland, Director of Belize Friends Ministries, spoke of Eden’s deep faith and relentless defense of Belize’s most powerless and marginalized members. She also spoke of her gratitude for Eden’s support, and relentless focus on possibilities.

As Eden is preparing to leave the FUM staff team, the General Board is inviting Friends to donate to the FUM Global Ministries Endowment Fund in her honor. Income from this fund will continue to support the global work that Eden is passionate about.
