Overview
Mission
Religious organization
What it reported doing in 2024
USLI liability insurance provides liability coverage for all personal prayer ministry sessions, classes, educational resources, speaking engagements, and podcast teachings. We administered over 120 hours of private prayer counseling ministry, and were able to donate over 50 hours of discounted prayer counseling ministry to individuals who could otherwise not afford prayer ministry.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 91% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent spending detail to tell whether the nonprofit works directly or through others.
The verdict
MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
