Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

To promote and enhance theological education for Hispanic in the USA, Canada and PR to foster communication and cooperation and support persons involved in Hispanic theological education.

Activities or mission (Part I)

To promote and enhance theological education for Hispanic in the USA, Canada and PR to foster communication cooperation and support them.

  • The Antioquia program, belonging to the AETH network, aims to strengthen the exchange of ideas and resources between institutions, ministry leaders, and academics, in order to promote theological reflection and the development of contextually and culturally diverse leadership. Among its main initiatives are the publication of books and articles; the production of the ECOS podcast, dedicated to the dissemination of theological content and interviews with experts; and the organization of virtual spaces such as the Pastoral Gatherings, which have the participation of renowned Latin American theologians. In addition, the program coordinates the Theological Reflective Gatherings, held twice a year. Together, these activities strengthen AETH's capacity to generate and share relevant theological resources, fostering academic collaboration and the formation of leaders engaged in their communities.

    Expenses $114,889

  • COORDINATION PROGRAM- This program aims to strengthen the administrative and management capacity of Bible institutes. It supports them in developing a strategic plan, establishing financial policies, and reviewing their curriculum offerings based on their mission statements as needed. The program also promotes healthy and well-informed boards of directors and instructors to guide the institutes toward certification.

    Expenses $7,300

  • PCPO (Proyecto de Cambio, Primera Ola). This project ended in 2024 and it aimed to strengthen our internal infrastructure, systems, and methods.

    Expenses $115,183

  • CAPACITY BUILDING: This project is to build the administrative and managerial capacity of Bible institutes, so that they have a strategic plan, financial policies, can evaluate and revise their curricular offerings based on their mission statement, as needed, and have healthy and knowledgeable boards and instructors who can lead, in order to put them on the path to certification. Capacity Building Communications This program exists to improve AETH's internal and external communications in order to increase its impact among partners, broaden its exposure to increase membership, and foster collaboration among Association members and Lilly Endowment-supported organizations. This broader impact upon its current membership and expanding into new networks will enhance AETH's capacity in fundraising.

    Expenses $310,283

  • COMPELLING PREACHING: The Compelling Preaching Initiative seeks to nurture and train preachers from the Hispanic and Latino churches for the purpose of enhancing congregational vitality and strengthening pastoral leadership toward holistic ministry. The program also seeks to deepen the understanding of what Transformative Preaching means in the Hispanic and Latino context, identifying the type of ongoing support that preachers need to excel. Their methodology is based on intensive experiences, weekend events, and small group learning sessions, both virtual and face-to-face, led by experts in the field. In these spaces, Hispanic and Latino preachers practice creating and delivering sermons that promote thriving faith communities capable of expressing their faith in everyday life and civic engagement. The initiative focuses on the development and support of first- and second-generation Hispanic and Latino leaders who play an active role in preaching, recognizing their diversity and the unique challenges they face. In addition, it extends an invitation to the leaders who supervise and guide these preachers to participate in the educational events, thus strengthening a network of support and mutual growth in ministry.

    Expenses $162,873

  • Young leaders - Young Líderes is a network of young Latiné leaders exploring the intersection of faith, identity, justice, and calling.

The program is focused on building intergenerational bridges between young leaders and scholars and the more seasoned senior leaders and scholars that would foster a forum for ministry leaders and church scholars to do theology, collaborate, and innovate.

    Expenses $1,249

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
