Impact evidence

Describes programs. Its tax return describes what it does but we have found no measurable results in it.

Programs described in its return (6)
  1. $36,388 spent. SHAWI NATION: Continual education and health counseling with active hygiene explanation and protocol recommendations. We continue our relationship and mentoring since the year 2023. Completion of a physical educational building equipped with current technology of solar panels to provide electricity on the banks of the Mananapura River in SHAWI territory, Region of Yurimaguas, Peru specifically. Expansion of church building and classrooms completed for increased tribal attendance. Biblical education is continuing and a Seminary has been established there offering Academic Degrees for those completing the program. Translation into the particular dialect is improving nicely as many of the younger tribal people are eager to learn the Spanish language and are thus becoming bilingual. Solar Powered MP3 players hurdle the linguistic barriers of the many preliterate people and have proven useful tools in educating the tribe.
  2. $29,366 spent. CHAPRA TRIBE of Inca Roca in the Amazon also in the fluvial jungle of Peru have been participant with our projects of distribution of Christian teaching and several discipleship seminars emphasizing tribal women and child training to develop Christian worldview designed to orientate them towards stability, responsibility and integrity. Distribution of the New Testament on solar powered MP3 players still continues and consequently has led to professional positions in the healthcare industry that were previously not available in nearby cities such as Tarapoto, Peru.
  3. $35,119 spent. HONDURAS: Audio Video Bible Translation Center in Honduras established to provide academic training; transcripts, production, recording, voice over narration, editing, and digital packaging of bible teaching that fosters a biblical world view for use in domiciles and seminaries throughout the world.
  4. $24,589 spent. KANDOSHI TRIBE on the Pastaza River received audio bibles, literature, seminars, buildings both for worship and education in Christian discipleship and academia. We also provide support in hygiene, medical attention, and ongoing Christian education. This project is in early phases.
  5. $9,354 spent. PIPIL TRIBE in the region of Contamana are a new target group with whom we have established relationship and built for them a building where they have now established regular meetings, discipleship classes, worship and bible training. We began extended conferences among their central villages and in one other region as well. The New Testament is projected for their dialects well and is in its early critical phases.
  6. $12,629 spent. MEXICO CHILD EVANGELISM in conjunction with established National churches encourages children to learn and apply Christian ethics and understand academia in light of biblical perspective. Although a large amount of perishable gifts are given the eternal reward far outweighs the cost of promotion. Feeding, and housing are provided and dormitories have been built to accomodate the hundreds of children that come to faith in Chruist there. Transportation is also provided from all rural areas to the children's bible classes.
