Meet the Visionaries Behind GICA

Grace Instrument Christian Academy (an arm of Grace Instrument Ministries) was founded by Pastor David and Dupe Adegbami, a missionary couple from Nigeria who have been living in Belize and serving through various missions since 2008. As passionate educators and visionaries, they established the school after recognizing a need in the community and receiving a calling from God. Their commitment to faith, academic excellence, and character development continues to shape the foundation of our school today.

Joining them in this mission are Pastor Rich and Rachel Deeds, along with Pastor Ron and Edna Juran, who have faithfully served alongside them and played a vital role in the school’s establishment and growth.
