When anyone says that our ministry doesn’t answer to anyone concerning finances and the gifts received from partners, I always answer that nothing could be further from the truth.

We are directly and purposefully accountable to God, to the governmental authorities that oversee not-for-profit ministries, to independent auditors, to our Board of Directors, and ultimately to our partners.

Arising from the belief that a church is, by its very nature, an accountable entity, our ministry complies with, and exceeds, the legal requirements set forth by the Internal Revenue Service and other governing bodies which oversee the financial practices of churches.

Going above and beyond the government guidelines, each year our ministry undergoes a thorough audit by an independent firm that is noted for its expertise in the area of not-for-profit law and IRS compliance. This is significant, for these financial audits occur at the voluntary invitation of our Board of Directors and is not a requirement of the IRS or any other governmental body.
