This week AnGeL Ministries’ Financial Efficiency Rating in the MinistryWatch database fell from 4 to 3 stars, placing it among the top 60% for financial efficiency in the Christian Growth sector.
The organization, founded by Anne Graham Lotz, daughter of Billy Graham, now has a Donor Confidence Score of 56 or “Exercise Caution.” The reason for the low donor confidence score is, in part, because the ministry is not a member of the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability (ECFA) and does not make its Form 990s or audited financials available to the public.
According to a spokesperson, however, the organization will provide these documents upon request.
From 2022 to 2023, the organization’s revenue jumped from $1.1 million to $14.7 million. The spokesperson told MinistryWatch this came from “private donations received in 2023 to help expand our ministry.”
This, in turn, raised the organization’s net assets from $4.6 million to $18.4 million. AnGeL Ministries now has a reserve coverage ratio of 1,444%.
The ministry says they “are in prayer now for the Lord’s guidance where to invest those resources” and that it’s working on a variety of ministry initiatives.
According to its website, AnGeL Ministries, based out of Raleigh, North Carolina, “serves as the umbrella organization for the diverse ministry of Anne Graham Lotz — including her many books, DVDs, CDs, and speaking engagements as well as special events such as ‘Just Give Me Jesus.’”
AnGeL Ministries’ total expenses in 2023 were $1.2 million, with 14% spent on general and admin costs.
