WORD FOR LIFE TRUST

The Word for Life Trust is a faith based ministry serving the worldwide church. WFLT works to envision, encourage, equip churches and individual Christians to share the love of God more effectively into their communities. WFLT works only by invitation of local churches and in partnership with them, never in place of them, and inter-denominationally wherever possible (Ps 133:1).

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period, despite a decline more recently
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

There are only 4 trustees

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Income has been volatile recently and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
