Overview

Mission

Forgive And Live Ministries Inc provides Christian counseling to help clients deal with life's problems so that they can find peace of mind and live joyously healthier lives.

What it reported doing in 2024

Forgive And Live Ministries Inc was formed on 09/20/2024 and the main program service is providing counseling to people in need in the community and beyond. Although most counseling is done in person, it is also offered online, giving help to clients who live farther away or are unable to meet in person. From 09/20/2024 to 12/31/2024, counseling was provided to 115 clients. Counseling was provided by Kristen Duffin, and since forming Forgive And Live Ministries Inc, she has worked over 50 hours per week without compensation, keeping expenses low so counseling services remain available to all people in need. Kristen Duffin holds a Master's Degree in Biblical Counseling with a focus on Marriage and Family from Light University, and continued her education to include addition, grief, fear, anxiety, depression, and overall emotional struggles. Kristen is an ordained minister, a board-certified member of the AACC (American Association of Christian Counselors), and has been providing counseling services for over 17 years.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 100% 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

SUPPORTED - A large share of total spending goes to programs and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
