Overview

Mission

Proclaim Jesus Christ to every person, in all nations, through all possible means, until He returns.

What it reported doing in 2025

The organization advanced its exempt religious purpose through a structured ministry partnership and grantmaking program designed to extend evangelistic outreach, leadership development, and discipleship through vetted partner ministries in the United States and internationally. Grants were provided to U.S. based and foreign ministry organizations and missionaries carrying out gospel-focused initiatives aligned with the organization's mission, including evangelistic campaigns, conferences, and community outreach. The organization does not control these partners but maintains alignment through an application and approval process, ongoing communication, and structured reporting on ministry activities and outcomes. Results and key performance indicators are closely reviewed to ensure continued alignment with the organization's exempt purpose and effective use of resources. In addition, the program supported leadership development initiatives, including mentorship and theological education assistance for emerging ministry leaders preparing for future evangelistic service. Limited support was also provided to ministry workers engaged in field evangelism and partner-led outreach efforts serving vulnerable communities in alignment with the organization's mission.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 97% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 81% 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 available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. The filing reports few safeguards for money sent abroad and the filing does not identify recipients for some grant dollars.
