Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990, Page 2, Part III, Line 4A

This has been a truly amazing year we have traveled across asia, europe, north and south america. Our adventures have caused us to cross more than 20 states and work in many countries and share with many children in the united states and around the world, always talking with them about the hope of jesus. We always try to target children who are living in difficult places or having a very difficult home life. In the united states, we distributed thousands of brochures, as well as passing out over 1,000 jesus storybook bibles. Many of these children did not own a single book. Our brochure is now available in nine languages and in several of the countries we were able to distribute bibles in the children's native language during our travels, we resupplied 24 puppet teams in brazil with new and consumable equipment that they needed. While in brazil, i did a radio outreach that reached 50,000 people. We worked with many quechua children in the high andes of peru. We flew our brazilian directors to join us in this work and they also joined us for work twice in italy, where we trained and equipped two new teams in milan and rome. Twice, we traveled across ireland and northern ireland with an irish band doing a program on the street. This gave us the opportunity to talk with people all over the world. I went to istanbul and worked with women and their children who are refugees from syria, afghanistan, iraq, iran and ladies out of africa, who had been trafficked. We continue to partner with a british charity on projects for nepal. This year we provided over 200 coats for children in the lower himalayas and trained and equipped 25 sunday school teachers who work in remote mountain areas. Our trip to nepal allowed us to serve thousands of children who live at a level of poverty that an american truly cannot grasp. Across georgia and tennessee, we did many programs for children and teenagers who are at risk. We also did special christmas programs for them. We worked in massachusetts, in inner city baltimore and in inner city philadelphia. This gave us an opportunity to be with children who see things that you would not really want your children to see. I really loved this year and cannot wait to see what god does in this coming year. We already have trips planned to five continents and more than 20 states.

IRS990/Desc0THIS HAS BEEN A TRULY AMAZING YEAR WE HAVE TRAVELED ACROSS ASIA, EUROPE, NORTH AND SOUTH AMERICA. OUR ADVENTURES HAVE CAUSED US TO CROSS MORE THAN 20 STATES AND WORK IN MANY COUNTRIES AND SHARE WITH MANY CHILDREN IN THE UNITED STATES AND AROUND THE WORLD, ALWAYS TALKING WITH THEM ABOUT THE HOPE OF JESUS. WE ALWAYS TRY TO TARGET CHILDREN WHO ARE LIVING IN DIFFICULT PLACES OR HAVING A VERY DIFFICULT HOME LIFE. IN THE UNITED STATES, WE DISTRIBUTED THOUSANDS OF BROCHURES, AS WELL AS PASSING OUT OVER 1,000 JESUS STORYBOOK BIBLES. MANY OF THESE CHILDREN DID NOT OWN A SINGLE BOOK. OUR BROCHURE IS NOW AVAILABLE IN NINE LANGUAGES AND IN SEVERAL OF THE COUNTRIES WE WERE ABLE TO DISTRIBUTE BIBLES IN THE CHILDREN'S NATIVE LANGUAGE DURING OUR TRAVELS, WE RESUPPLIED 24 PUPPET TEAMS IN BRAZIL WITH NEW AND CONSUMABLE EQUIPMENT THAT THEY NEEDED. WHILE IN BRAZIL, I DID A RADIO OUTREACH THAT REACHED 50,000 PEOPLE. WE WORKED WITH MANY QUECHUA CHILDREN IN THE HIGH ANDES OF PERU. WE FLEW OUR BRAZILIAN DIRECTORS TO JOIN US IN THIS WORK AND THEY ALSO JOINED US FOR WORK TWICE IN ITALY, WHERE WE TRAINED AND EQUIPPED TWO NEW TEAMS IN MILAN AND ROME. TWICE, WE TRAVELED ACROSS IRELAND AND NORTHERN IRELAND WITH AN IRISH BAND DOING A PROGRAM ON THE STREET. THIS GAVE US THE OPPORTUNITY TO TALK WITH PEOPLE ALL OVER THE WORLD. I WENT TO ISTANBUL AND WORKED WITH WOMEN AND THEIR CHILDREN WHO ARE REFUGEES FROM SYRIA, AFGHANISTAN, IRAQ, IRAN AND LADIES OUT OF AFRICA, WHO HAD BEEN TRAFFICKED. WE CONTINUE TO PARTNER WITH A BRITISH CHARITY ON PROJECTS FOR NEPAL. THIS YEAR WE PROVIDED OVER 200 COATS FOR CHILDREN IN THE LOWER HIMALAYAS AND TRAINED AND EQUIPPED 25 SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHERS WHO WORK IN REMOTE MOUNTAIN AREAS. OUR TRIP TO NEPAL ALLOWED US TO SERVE THOUSANDS OF CHILDREN WHO LIVE AT A LEVEL OF POVERTY THAT AN AMERICAN TRULY CANNOT GRASP. ACROSS GEORGIA AND TENNESSEE, WE DID MANY PROGRAMS FOR CHILDREN AND TEENAGERS WHO ARE AT RISK. WE ALSO DID SPECIAL CHRISTMAS PROGRAMS FOR THEM. WE WORKED IN MASSACHUSETTS, IN INNER CITY BALTIMORE AND IN INNER CITY PHILADELPHIA. THIS GAVE US AN OPPORTUNITY TO BE WITH CHILDREN WHO SEE THINGS THAT YOU WOULD NOT REALLY WANT YOUR CHILDREN TO SEE. I REALLY LOVED THIS YEAR AND CANNOT WAIT TO SEE WHAT GOD DOES IN THIS COMING YEAR. WE ALREADY HAVE TRIPS PLANNED TO FIVE CONTINENTS AND MORE THAN 20 STATES.

IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0THIS HAS BEEN A TRULY AMAZING YEAR WE HAVE TRAVELED ACROSS ASIA, EUROPE, NORTH AND SOUTH AMERICA. OUR ADVENTURES HAVE CAUSED US TO CROSS MORE THAN 20 STATES AND WORK IN MANY COUNTRIES AND SHARE WITH MANY CHILDREN IN THE UNITED STATES AND AROUND THE WORLD, ALWAYS TALKING WITH THEM ABOUT THE HOPE OF JESUS. WE ALWAYS TRY TO TARGET CHILDREN WHO ARE LIVING IN DIFFICULT PLACES OR HAVING A VERY DIFFICULT HOME LIFE. IN THE UNITED STATES, WE DISTRIBUTED THOUSANDS OF BROCHURES, AS WELL AS PASSING OUT OVER 1,000 JESUS STORYBOOK BIBLES. MANY OF THESE CHILDREN DID NOT OWN A SINGLE BOOK. OUR BROCHURE IS NOW AVAILABLE IN NINE LANGUAGES AND IN SEVERAL OF THE COUNTRIES WE WERE ABLE TO DISTRIBUTE BIBLES IN THE CHILDREN'S NATIVE LANGUAGE DURING OUR TRAVELS, WE RESUPPLIED 24 PUPPET TEAMS IN BRAZIL WITH NEW AND CONSUMABLE EQUIPMENT THAT THEY NEEDED. WHILE IN BRAZIL, I DID A RADIO OUTREACH THAT REACHED 50,000 PEOPLE. WE WORKED WITH MANY QUECHUA CHILDREN IN THE HIGH ANDES OF PERU. WE FLEW OUR BRAZILIAN DIRECTORS TO JOIN US IN THIS WORK AND THEY ALSO JOINED US FOR WORK TWICE IN ITALY, WHERE WE TRAINED AND EQUIPPED TWO NEW TEAMS IN MILAN AND ROME. TWICE, WE TRAVELED ACROSS IRELAND AND NORTHERN IRELAND WITH AN IRISH BAND DOING A PROGRAM ON THE STREET. THIS GAVE US THE OPPORTUNITY TO TALK WITH PEOPLE ALL OVER THE WORLD. I WENT TO ISTANBUL AND WORKED WITH WOMEN AND THEIR CHILDREN WHO ARE REFUGEES FROM SYRIA, AFGHANISTAN, IRAQ, IRAN AND LADIES OUT OF AFRICA, WHO HAD BEEN TRAFFICKED. WE CONTINUE TO PARTNER WITH A BRITISH CHARITY ON PROJECTS FOR NEPAL. THIS YEAR WE PROVIDED OVER 200 COATS FOR CHILDREN IN THE LOWER HIMALAYAS AND TRAINED AND EQUIPPED 25 SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHERS WHO WORK IN REMOTE MOUNTAIN AREAS. OUR TRIP TO NEPAL ALLOWED US TO SERVE THOUSANDS OF CHILDREN WHO LIVE AT A LEVEL OF POVERTY THAT AN AMERICAN TRULY CANNOT GRASP. ACROSS GEORGIA AND TENNESSEE, WE DID MANY PROGRAMS FOR CHILDREN AND TEENAGERS WHO ARE AT RISK. WE ALSO DID SPECIAL CHRISTMAS PROGRAMS FOR THEM. WE WORKED IN MASSACHUSETTS, IN INNER CITY BALTIMORE AND IN INNER CITY PHILADELPHIA. THIS GAVE US AN OPPORTUNITY TO BE WITH CHILDREN WHO SEE THINGS THAT YOU WOULD NOT REALLY WANT YOUR CHILDREN TO SEE. I REALLY LOVED THIS YEAR AND CANNOT WAIT TO SEE WHAT GOD DOES IN THIS COMING YEAR. WE ALREADY HAVE TRIPS PLANNED TO FIVE CONTINENTS AND MORE THAN 20 STATES.
