Overview

Mission

The organization's mission is to establish churches of Christ New Testament pattern in poorly evangelized Kentucky counties, providing support until they are self-supporting

What it reported doing in 2025

In October 2021, trustees / directors refocused the organization's mission and purpose. This resulted in disposition of all real and personal property assets at a loss. Final details of the refocusing efforts began to materialize in 2022, continued into 2023, 2024, and 2025 and will extend into 2026 before finalized.

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: Transfer-based 990-EZ. The 990-EZ reports grants or member benefits, but it does not separate enough spending to show the nonprofit’s full delivery mix.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Expenses are high relative to revenue and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
