Overview
Mission
We are a church and a seminary. The school teaches a spiritual practice of discernment and healing geared to shamanic religious beliefs. The church allows our ministerial graduates to practice giving spiritual counsel and healing to members and visitors and to teach innovative techniques and practices for expanding spiritual awareness which promote the healing of oneself and the world. We are 100% online.
What it reported doing in 2020
We have three levels of training: Foundations for Beginners Next Level Shamanic Discernment and Healing intermediary training of 1 year which entitles the graduate as associate minister of our church. Licensed Ministry our most advanced group training 18 months and graduates are entitled as "Maestros" of the church. The highest level is our Shamanic Initiate Program 30 months in addition to completion of all previous programs. Initiates also carry the title Maestro but are empowered within the community as teachers healers and leaders of the church. Tuition for these training programs is the chief source of revenue for the church at present.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 66% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
- 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. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
