Overview
Mission
Winning souls to Christ at an exponential rate is a core mission of Operation Go International, by training people in Soul Winning and leveraging a multiplication principle to reach large numbers for Christ. Now, you can multiply your stewardship! Imagine, for only a small investment, your ability to completely provide for one national pastor to receive three days of “on the field“ training. He then returns to his home church equipped, in his language, to train 100 soul winners. Your generous sponsorship will continue to multiply as churches are planted, and those trained continue to win hundreds of others to Christ. Each Sponsored Pastor • $250 Learn More.
What it reported doing in 2024
The witness project over the last 12 years, weve seen 50,750 national pastors trained in over 52 areas of the world. Weve helped train 2,891,025 lay soul winners resulting in 32,116,397 people accepting christ and planting 4,923 churches. The witness project is working across the globe to help train nationals to reach those in their own areas. They already know the language and understand the culture. These awesome results prove its working.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 82% 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. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
