We are committed to making disciples of all nations through partnering with local churches to renew, train and mobilize believers for active involvement in reaching the world for Christ. false false 5389368 International Messengers normally conducts over 40 evangelistic short-term ministries each year, sends over 300 North Americans on short-term missionary endeavors, supports over 175 full-time missionaries around the world, and conducts nearly 100 events designed to challenge and disciple the North American church--these include preaching in churches, speaking at camps, conducting retreats, prayer services, marriage enrichment ministries, and various types of missions presentations. The goals of these activities are two-fold: 1) to reach more people with the good news about having a relationship with Jesus Christ, and 2) to encourage and equip people to be a part of sharing that good news with others. Much of the work we do is measured in intangibles rather than in statistical data. The numbers above give some idea of the scope of the work. 5389368 true true false false false false false false false false true true false true false false true false false true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 4 0 true 87 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 13 11 false false false false false false false true true false false true true false false true true true true false X X X Mark Bakker 6413576700 110 Orchard Court Clear Lake IA 50428 Darwin Anderson Ex-Officio 40.00 0.00 X 113560 0 0 Brent Howland Member/CEO 40.00 0.00 X X 81790 0 0 Ed Kleiman Member/Staff 40.00 0.00 X 62000 0 0 Jeff O'Connell Member/Staff 0.00 0.00 X 24000 0 0 Mark Bakker Treasurer/Staff 5.00 0.00 X X 12000 0 0 Bernie Jacobsen Member 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Gene Fox Member 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Doug Gould Member 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Nancy Holty Secretary 0.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Greg Nicholas Vice Chair 0.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Tim Sizer Chairman 0.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Kim Sizer Member 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Lynn Jacobsen Member 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Craig Lieberg Member 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Dave Wilke Member 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Scott Peasley Member 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Linda Berntson Member 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Laura Rust Member 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 293350 1 false false false 0 7130831 19702 7130831 0 58138 58138 0 0 0 2969 2400 3203 -234 2400 2166 2166 0 0 0 0 7191135 2166 58138 0 0 0 0 293350 173250 69253 50847 0 2126848 1733532 257554 135762 0 136796 115726 21070 146644 114315 23077 9252 0 0 31600 31600 0 0 0 0 19680 6007 13673 0 0 0 0 263267 2651 226747 33869 0 0 0 0 47461 47461 26154 26154 Ministry Expenses 3402259 3249894 136390 15975 Meetings & Conferences 85611 85611 Supplies 81001 48107 32894 On-line / Credit Card Fees 60432 41201 19231 153993 123463 30530 6875096 5389368 1143695 342033 X 630128 913325 643892 548955 0 0 0 0 0 0 141850 81710 1047946 842321 230295 205625 0 1310874 1357029 0 0 1755364 1902998 4712403 5009642 184244 165299 184244 165299 X 2248135 2250761 2280024 2593582 4528159 4844343 4712403 5009642 X 316039 145 X false true X true false X 5461182 6936972 7255927 6536471 7130831 33321383 0 0 5461182 6936972 7255927 6536471 7130831 33321383 0 33321383 7369 9963 19649 44663 58138 139782 0 0 33461165 0.99580 0.99710 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 34500 34500 530400 510156 20244 224441 133278 91163 252234 195167 57067 6371 3720 2651 205625 1357029 Charitable Lead Trust 196211 Charitable Remainder Trust 1706787 1902998 7191135 7191135 7191135 6875096 6875096 6875096 Europe 0 112 Program Services Evangelism 2529945 Russia & Newly Indep.
