Overview

Mission

To serve people and the Church worldwide through music ministry and the gifts of the five-fold ministry: Apostolic, Prophetic, Evangelistic, Pastoral, and Teaching. To share the Good News of Jesus Christ and see people healed, set free, delivered, and raised to new life.

What it reported doing in 2025

Aero Ministries continues to lead worship and minister at least twice a week throughout our region. Our team serves many local churches with Sunday morning worship music and is available to assist with sound system planning and sound engineering. Our weekly live stream reaches all across this nation and world through three social media platforms. AEROstudios, a donation-based recording studio, has served many local musicians with a place to release their original Christian songs to the world.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
