Overview
Mission
Our mission is to share the love of Jesus Christ in all spheres of life, and provide mercy ministries to isolated and disadvantaged people who have little or no access to clean water, basic medical care and education. 1 in 2 people in Mexico suffer from a lack of medical resources. Providing basic healthcare to remote coastal villages of the Sea of Cortez, Mexico is a challenge. They have limited or no road access. The nearest hospital or dental clinics are over several hours away. For medical professionals to serve these isolated communities, they would need a place to stay and eat; no hotels and restaurants available at these locations. With ships, we can deliver basic healthcare to these communities and provide housing and meals for the volunteer medical professionals and crew. Amazing Grace Maritime Missions builds relationships uniting churches in the USA with churches in Mexico to serve communities with health and biblically based education by land and by sea.
What it reported doing in 2024
DISEASE PREVENTION PROGRAMS: Amazing Grace Maritime Missions (AGMM) partners with Youth with a Missions Mazatlán USA (YWAM) to provide basic medical treatments with skilled medical volunteers in small coastal villages around the Sea of Cortez. While YWAM operates the Amazing Grace medical ship, Zeus and Charlotte expands into mobilizing AGMM's health programs by land and by sea with their other vessels. AGMM provides disease prevention outreaches, medical supplies to small rural hospitals, and sponsors dental services for at-risk youth in Mexico. We have conducted several disease prevention programs and found that most of the children have never received dental care. Their culture does not yet value preventative dental care or proper dental hygiene. Did you know that 80% of Premature Heart disease, Stroke, and Diabetes and 40% of Cancer can be prevented by doing just 3 things? Rural communities in Mexico have little access to healthcare. Our community health programs teach people ways to prevent disease and help develop healthy communities. During our Disease Prevention health fair, our volunteer medical professionals provide health screenings such as testing glucose A1c levels and blood pressure as well as utilizing body mass index to properly counsel. With the health screening results, our medical professionals review the results with the individual confidentially to personalize the health education. At the end of the meeting, they pray for them. Our Dulce Dental sponsorship helps at-risk youth receive two cleanings, x-rays and 2 cavity-fillings per year which teaches the child how important it is to keep their teeth healthy to prevent diseases in the future.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 90% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 98% 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 liabilities are high compared with assets.
