What it reported doing in 2024
In 2024, kingdom encounters international ("kei") conducted mass evangelistic crusades and outreach campaigns in pakistan, india, bangladesh, brazil, honduras, and sub-saharan africa. Through these events and partner initiatives, 1,041,511 individuals made documented decisions to follow jesus christ. Tens of thousands experienced miracles and healings, and hundreds of pastors were trained for follow-up and discipleship through local church networks. Through the awaken the wonder podcast, global digital platforms, and broadcasting of our crusades, kei shared the gospel in dozens of nations with scripture-based teaching, prayer resources, and discipleship content. The ministry also distributed printed materials to equip believers and strengthen discipleship in churches and communities where we ministered. Additionally, kei hosted leadership conferences for pastors and marketplace leaders and partnered with local ministries to distribute food, bibles, and disclipleship materials to families in need throughout asia, africa, and latin america. The organization also freed individuals from modern-day slavery and constructed water wells in south asia to meet both physical and spiritual needs.
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 98% 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 most filed governance safeguards are in place. The filing reports few safeguards for money sent abroad and the filing does not identify recipients for some grant dollars.
