Organizations Filed Purposes:
We are a Christian ministry, missions and resource provider for spiritual teachings. We host conference events, provide spiritual formation seminars and also host evangelism efforts and charitable outreaches to the poor. This includes the construction and support of children's homes for orphans and other humanity relief programs in developing nations.
Christianity Programs: Sons of Thunder hosted conferences and teaching seminars around the world at various locations in 2020 for the benefit of spiritual development. Expenses in this category of service accomplishment reflect costs for airline and ground transportation, hotels and other travel expenses associated with itinerant ministry, along with various conference expenses such as facility and sound equipment rental. Due to Covid restrictions, we also moved many seminars to online formats. SOT continued development on our seminary program. In addition, we offer generous grants to like-minded nonprofit Christian groups engaged in similar ministry goals, which are included in this category.
Mission Outreaches: Sons of Thunder provides numerous outreach programs to developing regions to some of the poorest areas of the world. This category of service accomplishment was limited this year due to Covid 19 international travel restrictions, but includes bringing teams to Russia and Central America, ministering in impoverished areas and slums, with spiritual gatherings and outreach work. This often includes ministry to the poor, visiting orphanages and sacerdotal work. Expenses include flights, ground transportation, accommodations and diverse costs associated with large team endeavors.
International Child Sponsorship Program: We operate a children's home we constructed for orphans near Mumbai, India, and this service accomplishment reflects the regular monthly support we provide for food, education, a schoolbus and living expenses. Funds in this category are independently managed by children's home parents Ranjana and Nisar Immanuel, with detailed oversight, reporting and accountability to us at Sons of Thunder. In addition, we also operate and support a new children's home in the Philippines near Manila, enabling us to rescue more abandoned children from the streets.
