Public benefits
The trustees believe all of our purposes satisfy both elements of the public benefit requirement. The main purpose of the charity is to see an improvement of the holistic life of communities worldwide through: The advancement of the Christian faith; The direct benefits include the encouragement of Christian concepts like the unique value of every
individual, showing selfless, sacrificial love like Jesus Christ displayed for all humanity and social responsibility beyond class commitments. This leads to a sense of peace and joy in knowing God and a profound sense of purpose and destiny inherent in taking responsibility for our lives, our unique gifts, our planet and our fellow man. Further benefits include the joy and exhilaration arising out of Christian art, literature and music in the world, the encouragement of people to be creative with their gifts and more motivated Christian communities leading to change for the better. The advancement of education; The direct benefits include the provision of educational materials and books to third world ministries in various languages, improved outcomes for children in schools and greater links between third world leaders and school classrooms and Bible schools. The relief of poverty and the relief of sickness; The direct benefits are saved and improved lives, the training of indigenous professionals (especially medical personnel) and the encouragement of missions which arises out of the visitation and support of the aged, poor, needy and sick. Further benefits include improved links between first world churches and ministries and those needy people in the developing world as well as support for orphanages, agricultural programs, churches and educational scholarships. This leads to a general uplift to the whole community. The above benefits are demonstrated through feedback from individuals, families, schools, universities, churches and communities and other Christian ministries have verified the fruits of our organization. Books such as Staying Alive, Better than Weapons of War, A Man of Ethiopia and India – One Act of Kindness demonstrate the efficacy of our Christian ministry. Some books have been translated into other languages and televised reports and videos have been aired showing our impact. The beneficiaries are all of mankind regardless of race, age or gender and our sphere of influence includes the whole church and the whole world. There is no harm arising from any of the purposes. The only private benefits are in trustees gaining the excitement, peace and joy of being involved in the ongoing ministry of spreading the love of Jesus Christ.
