Mission and programs · 2024

• PASTORAL CARE: TO ACHIEVE THE MISSION AND VISION OF LIM, THE GOSPEL IS SHARED IN A MANNER THAT ACKNOWLEDGES LOCAL CULTURE, CUSTOMS, HISTORY, AND SOCIAL CHALLENGES THAT EXIST IN NATIVE COMMUNITIES. TO SHARE THE GOSPEL WHILE ADDRESSING THE HIGH RATES OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, CHILD ABUSE, SUBSTANCE USE, HISTORICAL TRAUMA, INCARCERATION, AND SUICIDE DEMONSTRATES HOW THE GOSPEL HEALS AND RESTORES INDIVIDUALS, FAMILIES, AND COMMUNITIES. LIM PARTNERS WITH CHURCHES THAT SERVE NATIVE PEOPLE TO EQUIP THEM TO MEET COMMUNITY NEEDS. LIM IDENTIFIES, MENTORS AND SUPPORTS THE DEVELOPMENT OF AMERICAN INDIAN/NATIVE ALASKAN LEADERS WITHIN THEIR COMMUNITY TO ADDRESS WELLNESS WHILE SHARING THE GOSPEL.

  Expenses $249,125 · Grants $16,900

• HEALING MINISTRY: BY PROVIDING SAFE PLACES, WHERE NATIVE PEOPLE CAN TELL THEIR STORIES OF HARM, WHILE BUILDING STRONG TIES WITH COMMUNITY MEMBERS. OUR TRAINED MINISTRY STAFF CAN HOLISTICALLY GUIDE THEM TOWARDS A PATH OF HEALING. LIM EQUIPS, TRAINS, AND SUPPORTS EXISTING FAITH COMMUNITIES AND INDIVIDUALS TO BETTER SERVE THE LOCAL COMMUNITY. THE LOCAL CHURCH AND CONGREGATIONS MUST BECOME A PLACE WHERE THE GOSPEL HEALS AND INSTILLS HOPE TO THOSE IN NEED.

  Expenses $622,811 · Grants $42,250

• CAMPUS MINISTRY: YOUNG PEOPLE ARE THE FUTURE IN ALL CULTURES AND THAT IS TRUE FOR NATIVE AMERICANS AS WELL. LIM OPERATES A CAMPUS MINISTRY ADJACENT TO HASKELL INDIAN NATIONS UNIVERSITY. WITH A STUDENT BASE OF AROUND 900 NATIVE STUDENTS EACH SEMESTER, LIM HAS OPPORTUNITY TO DAILY COUNSEL AND MENTOR STUDENTS WHILE SHOWING THEM THE TRUE LOVE OF JESUS.

  Expenses $311,406 · Grants $21,125

• MISSION AWARENESS: WE BELIEVE THAT OUR MINISTRY EXTENDS BOTH TO THE NATIVE AMERICAN PEOPLE WE SERVE AND FROM THEM BACK TO THE WIDER CHURCH. MANY ARE NOT AWARE OF THE CHALLENGES FACING NATIVE AMERICANS. WITHOUT THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HISTORY OF NATIVE PEOPLE - ESPECIALLY THE HISTORY OF ARTROCITIES INFLICTED DIRECTLY BY THE CHURCH, IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO UNDERSTAND WHY SO FEW NATIVE AMERICANS KNOW JESUS AS THEIR LORD AND SAVIOR. IT IS ALSO NOT POSSIBLE TO UNDERSTAND THAT THE APPROACH OF PROCLAIMING THE GOSPEL MUST BE DELIVERED DIFFERENTLY THAN WHAT HAS BEEN TRIED AND FAILED FOR OVER 500 YEARS. LIM PRODUCES MATERIALS THAT IT MAKES AVAILABLE TO SUPPORTERS. WE ALSO EDUCATE SUPPORTERS AND THE WIDER PUBLIC THROUGH OUR WEBSITE AND OTHER MEANS LIKE SOCIAL MEDIA.

  Expenses $62,281 · Grants $4,225

As filed on the 2024 return. The filer continues this part on Schedule O, which is not shown here.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

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. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. 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.

California fundraising campaigns

Campaigns run by paid fundraisers, commercial coventurers and thrift stores naming this organization, as California published them. Both figures are as filed, and what the first one counts depends on the campaign type — a coventurer or a thrift store files its own sales rather than money collected for the charity. The 990 reports this only as a yearly total, never per campaign.

• QCSS INC.

  $0 raised

  2024 · Commercial Fundraiser

  $0 to charity

• QCSS INC.

  $2,713 raised

  2023 · Commercial Fundraiser

  $0 to charity

Amounts are as filed and do not add up: a commercial coventurer reports one promotion's whole gross once for each charity that shared in it. A campaign may also name more than one registered charity, in which case it appears on each.
