CHARTER DIVISIONS Church — A Local Church Charter protects the church, helping to eliminate un-acceptable, un-Christ-like lifestyles, preferences, interference and conflicts that may arise from denominational control, the local community, the state and the federal government agencies. Mission — Local mission serving predominately the poor, orphans, street people, abused women and children, outcasts, etc. A mission may offer rooms for rent, give away food and clothes, have special educational or Bible studies, etc. Because a local mission is a non-profit tax-exempt organization. Evangelistic (Preaching Ministry) — A Evangelistic charter is granted to traveling ministries such as evangelists, preachers, Bible teachers’ ministries. Having an evangelistic charter allows a ministry to receive donations while on the road or traveling anywhere in the USA. Educational (i.e. Church School, Academy, Bible College, Seminary)- Many churches and individual ministers, Bible teachers, and others have long awaited an opportunity to begin their own academy, Bible College or Seminary. Now this particular educational charter makes it possible. Any institution that applies for a charter must not be racially discriminatory and must clearly outline its purpose, curriculum, etc. The Fountain of Life Ministerial Seminary Extension program can help with curriculums and books. Christian Counseling Center - Because of many marital and family problems, throughout the nation, more ministries are specializing in counseling. A Christian counseling center may be part of an established church, or operated independently of a church from an office. It is meaningful to charter a Christian Counseling Center, because some state officials have attempted to interfere with such centers inasmuch as competition is fierce among licensed professionals in the fields of psychology, psychiatry, and marriage counseling. A Christian Counseling Center is considered by the IRS to be a religious and charitable organization. (Some centers prefer to use a sliding scale fee system).
