The main "programs" of A Living Letter Ministries are public presentations, private consultations, and the production of resources all for the purpose to help the Christian Church, both corporately and individually embrace the Gospel mandates of truth and love in response to sexual brokenness and its impact both inside and outside the walls of the church. Public presentations were lower in number this year due to the ongoing impact of Covid-19. Most presentations or consultations were done virtually. 0 80150 80150 Andrew Berryessa Executive Director 45 59761 0 0 Andrew Wade Board Chair 1 0 0 0 Aaron Brown Treasurer 1 0 0 0 Suzanne Berryessa Secretary 1 0 0 0 Sarah Lee Board Member 1 0 0 0 Byron Lee Board Member 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 OR Andrew Berryessa PO Box 8544 Medford OR 97501 5036222411 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 110476 81352 80317 90120 86909 449174 1410 4894 4684 2592 590 14170 111886 86246 85001 92712 87499 463344 463344 111886 86246 85001 92712 87499 463344 1 1 0 0 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 8 Book Sales - $583.29 Reimbursement Income - $7 Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16 "Other Expenses" break down as follows: Office Supplies - $335 Small Tools - $2430 Books/Continuing Education $381 Discretionary $237 Annual Fees $716 Non-Budget Expense $895 Uniform / Clothes $352 Marketing $432 Reimbursable Expense $566 Travel Discretionary $1428 "Changed Movement" Travel $2678 I was under the impression that I had already filed my 990 using my accounting software, APLOS. When I went to complete my 2022 990 I could not find the record. It took a long time to get through to someone at the IRS, only to learn that my 2021 990 was never received. After that, I could not file my 2022 990 without my 2021 complete. I was in the middle of a busy season for our organization and got completely behind. I am the only employee of our organization, outside of my volunteer board. I was so busy with the operations of our organization that I have struggled to get caught up. However, I never would have let the filings get this far behind had I realized that the 2021 filing never was received by the the IRS. I completely understand that there is a penalty for late filing. I had no idea how much of a penalty. We are a small non-profit with a small budget. I would like to ask for grace while determining our penalty.
