Overview

Mission

A ministry that exists to showcase the heart of our father jesus christ through powerful testimonies that display his faithfulness in our lives even from the midst of tragedies, difficult seasons and challenges that exist in our world. We encourage and show others that jesus wants to go deep into our own hearts so he can heal and restore what's been broken. The core of our message is rooted in the word "heart" which represents his(h) truth(t) that endures(e), adores(a) & restores(r).

What it reported doing in 2024

The ministry held an annual women's conference at a local facility, with several hundred in attendance, to address the needs in their life. The ministry's goal is to provide hope and encouragement to those who may be hurting as a result of significant challenges or tragedy in their life. The ministry provided a variety of speakers who shared their personal testimonies of how God had worked in their life to help them deal with their specific challenges.

Operating model

Revenue model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
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 - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. 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.
