Overview
Mission
Evangelism and church planting.
What it reported doing in 2025
A total of 48 mission trips to 10 countries involving 191 villages and 37 different ethnic groups were documented in 2025. Ironically similar to previous year results. Revenue was similar to previous year, and we saw about 6,248 individual decisions for Christ among the focus people groups. Over 27,000 heard the gospel and 483 claimed healing. If not for tragic life circumstances that our president encountered, a more accurate documentation of ministry would be recorded for the last couple months of 2025.
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 96% 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 - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
