Overview

Mission

The exempt purpose of the ministry is to assist in fulfilling the great commission of our lord and savior jesus christ by assisting adults through the process of discipleship and journey evangelism to model and prepare them to be "fully equipped for every good work."

What it reported doing in 2012

Ministry in 2012 continued in the areas of discipleship, counseling, teaching, and bible studies. Our meetings are both biblical and topical studies and are biblically based. We are able to minister to people from various church backgrounds, and we are actively involved in evangelism in one on one situations. Approximately 50% of our time is spent with individuals, 30% with groups of ten or less, and 20% with groups of more than ten.

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. Expenses are high relative to revenue and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
