Overview
Mission
Presbyterian Border Ministry (PBM) is called to share a holistic gospel with those who live along the 2,000 mile US/Mexico border. PBM's mission, carried out at six ministry sites along the border, is to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ through: new church development; empowerment of people and communities; bi-national mission education and experiences; support of border churches; and promotion of justice in all areas.

Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 94% 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
SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
