Overview

Mission

Our mission is to proclaim to the world the everlasting gospel of Revelation 14:6–12 and to encourage revival in the remnant church by leading people to embrace salvation by faith in Jesus, to establish them in the church, and to disciple all believers in the joy of leading others to Christ by word and example.

What it reported doing in 2025

Public evangelism: through giving, god's end-time message is impacting tens of thousands through bold preaching and christ-centered outreach. In august 2025, pastor doug led a historic evangelistic campaign in vanuatu, touching thousands of seekers with the everlasting gospel. Medical mission teams ministered to communities, opening hearts through hands-on care. A three-week prophecy seminar was held at 19 sites and broadcast online nationwide. Thousands of bibles and amazing facts study guides were distributed. More than 2,000 souls were baptized- village chiefs, prisoners, church pastors of other faiths, and young people, including 89 students from a local high school. Then in october 2025, we helped over 700,000 people in more than 180 countries find eternal hope through the truth-filled prophecy countdown evangelistic event, a two-week bible study live-streamed on roku, aftv, and facebook.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 91% 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.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and most filed governance safeguards are in place. The filing reports few safeguards for money sent abroad and the filing does not identify recipients for some grant dollars.
