1. Build-Out of the Business and Finance Divisions of the Ministry: This is one of our greatest areas of vulnerability. Even though Cheryl Bessinger, our Executive VP, leads these areas of ministry with the utmost degree of excellence using a very dedicated, but limited group of individuals, the build-out of additional executive-level and management level trained staff is essential in order to handle the continual future ministry growth of GTN.

  2. An Incomplete Software System: It is essential for GTN to be equipped with an operational, cutting edge software system that will elevate our current efficiency level in the area of technology in a way that will serve us well for several years.

  3. Build-Out of GTN’s Communication Capabilities: In every area where we want to advance/ increase the ministry capabilities of GTN, they all will require a higher level of communication capabilities above what we currently have. This will require additional equipment, systems, training, and personnel.

  4. Online Training Accessibility: GTN has an arsenal of tools to help train, equip, and mobilize ministers both stateside and aboard, but lack the online systems to maximize their use for the advancement of the Kingdom. With GTN’s newly established division under Mobilization called the Church and Ministries Empowerment Division, positive steps are being taken in the right direction, but there is much to be accomplished which will take time, and a tremendous amount of work and interface between the Mobilization Division, the Ministries Division, and the Office of the President.

  5. Revenue Generation for the World Headquarters: In order to solidify and equip the current operations of GTN’ s WHQ to its fullest capabilities, it would require an annual budget increase of an estimated $400,000. This would adequately supply the additional personnel, equipment and facility funds that are currently needed. For GTN to achieve the proper level of ministry revenue that will finance our projected future growth, GTN’s WHQ team must possess the ability to build-out the following areas:

    • Increase the number of major donors.
    • Maximize and expand our existing income streams.
    • Create new income streams.
    • Raise the personal financial support level of our missionaries.
    • Generate greater revenue through project funding.
