OUR STORY

Galen and Danette Gingerich, Christian nonprofit founders

Global Transformations Inc began as a new season in the journey of Galen and Danette Gingerich. After 45 years of pastoral ministry in their local church, they felt led to continue their mission in a new way. This nonprofit is driven by a clear conviction: God’s love can bring transformation, and the bold gospel of Christ reveals that all people are included in the trinitarian life of God. This powerful revelation fuels their mission—to reflect Christ, transform lives and impact culture.

MEET our FOUNDERS

Galen and Danette Gingerich have spent over 45 years on a journey of faith, discovery, and transformation. Their story isn’t just about leading a local church—it’s about seeking God’s heart with courage, humility, and a willingness to keep growing.

A Lifelong Journey of Faith

Raised in a Mennonite tradition that emphasized simplicity, peace, and Jesus’ teachings, Galen always sensed there was more to the Christian life. His parents' openness to fresh perspectives shaped him early on, and that spirit of discovery has guided him ever since. Galen’s journey has been marked by encounters with the Holy Spirit—healing, prophecy, and Spirit-led worship—alongside deep dives into scripture, church history, and theology. He explored the gifts of the Spirit firsthand, even when it meant walking an unconventional path.

Leading a Community of Faith

In the late 1970s, Galen helped start a small Spirit-led group that grew into a vibrant community focused on intimacy with God, Spirit-led worship, and a fearless pursuit of truth. Their community experienced powerful seasons of prophetic worship, healing, and spiritual renewal. Through it all, they emphasized transformation over rigid dogma—inviting people to encounter God personally.

A Heart for Restoration

In recent years, Galen and Danette found fresh clarity through the writings of the Early Eastern Church Fathers, gaining a deeper understanding of God’s heart for humanity. Their faith is anchored in a simple truth: that God’s love is all-embracing, all-encompassing, and that through Christ, all things are reconciled. No one is separated from Christ, for all are included in the eternal, self-giving love of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This hope—that Christ will make all things new—is the foundation of their message and mission.

Join the Journey

Today, Galen and Danette continue to live in 'discovery mode,' walking with humility and boldness, teaching, serving, and sharing the message that we are all invited into a journey of transformation through the love of God. They invite you to join them—whether through prayer, friendship, financial giving, or partnership—as they continue to share the message of Christ’s all-encompassing love and the incredible potential for transformation in every life.
