MEET THE AUTHOR
Hello, I’m Gray.
For over a decade, I’ve served in ministry, much of that time working with children overseas. I’ve seen how simple, meaningful moments can shape a child’s life.
That’s why I create Pip’s Adventures and A Flock of Feelings: books that invite children to explore, create, and connect with parents, teachers, and mentors through conversation and faith.
My hope is that these pages help children grow closer to God—and to the people who love them.
When you choose a Gray Ortiz book, you also help support my ongoing ministry serving children overseas.
