Overview

Mission

Life in Mission was established exclusively for religious purposes. Specifically, to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ to all nations, train Christian disciples and raise up Christian leaders to impact the world for Christ. At times, per the discretion of the Board of Directors, we may provide internships or volunteer opportunities which shall provide opportunities for involvement in said activities and programs in order to have a greater impact for change.

What it reported doing in 2025

Youth Impact Mission Camp (YIMC) - During the summer, we partner with a local church, bring together youths from all over the country and stay at the church for 6-day, for the purpose of raising up next generation of young Christian leaders to impact the world for Christ. We train youth on personal evangelism, discipleship, apologetics, holiness, self discipline, self discovery, integrity, commitment and effective communication. We had 22 youth participants during this FY, we went to a shopping mall for evangelism, and we hosted 2 evangelical meetings at 2 churches during our camp.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 89% 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. Revenue has declined or grown slowly and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
