Overview

Mission

In both our interfaith reconciliation activities and our community development work, we seek to reflect the love of jesus christ. In our reconciliation work, we are dedicated to promoting the kind of respectful mutual understanding and rigorous scholarship that advances peace between muslims and christians and equips christians to be faithful witnesses to the love of jesus christ in their relationships with muslim friends and partners. In our community development work, we seek to equip and empower individuals, families and communities for positive social and economic transformation that will break the cycle of poverty and misunderstanding.

What it reported doing in 2024

Interfaith dialogue programs and research: in our 2023 report we noted that we were preparing to organize a seminar at al-azhar in cairo (the world-leading institution of islamic scholarship), in partnership with fuller theological seminary. This groundbreaking seminar took place in early 2024 and was a success, with many participants describing their experiences as "life-changing, and with our al-azhar hosts eager to expand the seminar as an annual event and to explore other joint projects. Students from other institutions also showed interest in attending future seminars. So, in spring 2024 we worked with al-azhar partners to develop a broadened seminar, and in late december 2024 we began the first of two sessions (continuing into early 2025) of a seminar with students from fuller seminary, yale university, princeton university, tubingen university, gottingen university, boston college, boston university, and other institutions. In summer 2024 we organized another seminar called peace college to train mid-career leaders engaged in in intercultural christian ministry in muslim-majority contexts. In our 2023 report, we mentioned the completion of research for a book on the role played by hospitality (giving and receiving) in breaking down barriers between muslims and christians. The writing of this book, in an academic format, was completed in 2024. Because our work in interfaith reconciliation and academic research has now become 90% of our work, while the name "doulos community" is associated with our community development work (see below), we filed legal paperwork in 2024 to operate under the alternate name "woodberry intercultural institute." both names refer to the same legal entity.

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 - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
