Overview

Mission

To bring the love of Jesus to the nations through discipleship, church planting, and community development.

What it reported doing in 2020

School Training. This year we put a lot of emphasis into the practical training of our missionaries along with upgrading our curriculum to include real estate. Since our goal is to prepare youth to be Gospel Health Missionaries it required us to heavily invest in our training, school operations and mission school development.

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 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 - 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 revenue has declined or grown slowly.
