Report of the Trustees
The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31st August 2022. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).
Objectives and Activities
Objectives and Aims
The Trust Deed states that the object of New Tribes Mission is:
"To re-affirm and re-establish the Faith among all people of the world in the religious principles and doctrine taught by Jesus Christ."
That core objective is clearly expressed in the NTM purpose statement as follows:
"Motivated by the love of Christ, and empowered by the Holy Spirit, NTM in the UK, along with its worldwide partners, exists to assist the ministry of the local church through the mobilising, equipping, and coordinating of missionaries to evangelise unreached people groups, translate the Scriptures and see indigenous New Testament churches established that glorify Christ".
www.ntm.org.uk review of the year 2022 5
New Tribes Mission – For the Year Ended 31 August 2022
The objectives of New Tribes Mission expressed both in its Trust Deed and purpose statement fit two of the charitable purposes described in the Charities Act 2011 as:
-
The advancement of Religion
-
The advancement of Education
-
The prevention or relief of poverty is also a defined charitable purpose that, though incidental to the two above, is a benefit that many experience as a result of the primary activities of NTM in its overseas work among the world's least reached people groups.
Many of the world's people still live without opportunity to hear Jesus Christ's teaching and in obedience to His command to "go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature," NTM in the UK along with its partners worldwide focuses all its activities to that end.
These include:
-
serving the Church in the UK by presenting the challenge of reaching the world's least reached people groups.
-
serving the Church in the UK and the rest of Europe by training their members for cross cultural ministry.
-
serving the Church and supporters of NTM's ministry by supplying the logistical support for all its selfsupporting members both overseas and in the UK.
-
people group assessment to determine the world's least reached people.
-
sending missionaries to learn the language and culture
www.ntm.org.uk review of the year 2022 6
New Tribes Mission – For the Year Ended 31 August 2022
of those people in order to give them the opportunity of hearing Christ's teachings and believe the gospel.
-
to linguistically analyse a language in order to prepare written materials.
-
to teach literacy to those people with only an oral tradition.
-
to translate and publish the Scriptures for those ethnic peoples where NTM personnel are working.
-
to plant mature churches that will become selfgoverning, self-supporting, and self-propagating.
-
to give consultant help in all aspects of the church planting ministry and pastoral care to all members while away from their sending country.
Reporting on Public Benefit
The trustees have examined the aims and activities of New Tribes Mission in the light of the Charity Commission's two key principles of being able to identify the benefits of its activities and those of the public who are the beneficiaries of those activities. In summary, the benefits are those that come from the sharing of the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ, which leads to changed lives by all those who believe it and live by the selfless principles that Christ taught. It brings freedom from the guilt and power of sin, from fear and superstition and sets forth a quality of life that has the well-being of others as central to its ethos, irrespective of race and social standing. The churches planted offer the opportunity for the development of the spiritual life of all members of the community, young and old, rich, and poor and without racial prejudice. Their love of God is also accompanied by the other commandment to love their neighbour as themselves, which
www.ntm.org.uk review of the year 2022 7
New Tribes Mission – For the Year Ended 31 August 2022
brings a caring quality to life for all members of their communities. The educational benefit to ethnically distinct people groups of learning to read and write their own language is also offered to all members of their society both young and
old, rich, and poor and without charge. This has not only the benefit of personal development for all members of the society but helps to preserve aspects of their culture and identity. Literacy is also beneficial to all in that the Bible and other literature produced can be read and understood by all. This acquired skill is also helpful in equipping people for developing activities and projects that can bring material benefit and poverty relief.
The beneficiaries of NTM's activities are some of the least reached peoples of the world wherever they live and without prejudice of race or social standing. They are to be found among more than 270 of the world's
ethnically distinct people in 25 countries on four continents of the world being served by NTM missionaries from more than fifty countries at this present time.
www.ntm.org.uk review of the year 2022 8
New Tribes Mission – For the Year Ended 31 August 2022
The benefits of NTM's activities worldwide are also monitored in respect of perceived detriment by some who have concerns of the impact of deploying western educated missionaries in remote and vulnerable people groups. The experience NTM has gained in respect of cultural sensibilities in the transfer of unhelpful culture is central to the approach that NTM takes to church planting. God's Word teaches principles of belief and practise that are transcultural and fit for all the cultures of the world. All ministry locations are accessible to local government authorities and open to be externally assessed and evaluated.
North Cotes College, the training centre of New Tribes Mission, is located at North Cotes, Lincolnshire and exists to benefit the candidates of evangelical Christian churches in the UK and mainland Europe primarily but also from other parts of the world who choose to use this training facility. It is available to all who are of like faith.
www.ntm.org.uk review of the year 2022 9
New Tribes Mission – For the Year Ended 31 August 2022
Staff Remuneration
No member of the Mission receives a salary for the services they undertake. Gifts designated for the work of specific members of the Mission are sent by supporters to the Head Office and are forwarded from the Head Office to the specific member. Those trustees who are also members of the Mission receive funds in the same way. No member of the Mission is authorised to solicit funds.
Some of our volunteer members reside in charity property in the UK. This is by permission of the trustees and for the better carrying out of the charity’s main object. There are no tenancies and rentals charged, but some members may contribute to the living costs of the property where they live. New Tribes Mission has over the past twelve months continued to undertake its responsibilities in the pursuance of its objectives and aims as contained in its Trust Deed.

Achievement and Performance
Review of the Year 2021/22
New Tribes Mission has over the past twelve months continued to undertake its responsibilities in the pursuance of its objectives and aims as contained in its Trust Deed.
North Cotes College.
The year began with all three phases of the training programme in operation. There were 43 students in total. Of the 23 students enrolled in the Biblical Studies course 22 completed their studies and
graduated. There were 10 students enrolled for the CrossCultural Communications course and they successfully completed their studies and graduated. There were 10 students who commenced the Advanced Linguistics course of study, and they all completed their studies and graduated.
The graduates from the Cross-Cultural Communications course will become missionaries with New Tribes Mission, Ethnos360 or another missionary sending agency.
At the commencement of the academic year in September 2022, there were 22 students enrolled in the Biblical Studies courses, 14 students in the Cross-Cultural Communications Courses and 8 students in the Applied Linguistics course making a total student body of 44. Student numbers have remained at the level of the previous academic year but the number of married students as a proportion of the student body has increased, and the number of single students has decreased.
www.ntm.org.uk review of the year 2022 11
New Tribes Mission – For the Year Ended 31 August 2022
The application to the British Accreditation Council to change the courses offered into six-month courses of study was accepted. The Biblical Studies courses are now “Foundations” and “Christian Life and Ministry”.
The missions’ courses are “Cross-cultural Communication,” and “Applied Cross-Cultural Studies.” The linguistics courses are “Advanced Phonology and Grammar,” and “Field Linguistics.”
All non-UK students from September 1[st] , 2022, will be able to
complete all their studies while resident on campus. The BAC did an onsite inspection of the college campus, facilities, audited classes and checked all administrative procedures and has given its
accreditation approval. This will allow overseas students to apply for student visitor visas to enrol in the courses offered.
The North Cotes College Joint Training Council of representatives from the College and the European partners of NTM met via Zoom and in person four times during the year. This continues to be a helpful forum in which feedback from both staff and students are considered and is strategic in developing and keeping the training programme relevant, along with the input from the International Ministries Team. Both Dan Falls and Rich Brown from the IMT, who are members of the Global Equipping Team are now helping with the ongoing development of the training program.
www.ntm.org.uk review of the year 2022 12
New Tribes Mission – For the Year Ended 31 August 2022
The Campus Management Team have undertaken a number of projects in the past twelve months. This includes:
-
Work on refurbishing one of the NTM properties on Dyke Road in preparation for occupancy by a member of the NCC staff team.
-
Installing new heating controls in the Paul Fleming dormitory.
-
New paths with drop down kerbs.
-
Heat plates installed in two dormitories.
-
Fencing between two dormitories to create a safe play area for children.
-
Supervised the electrical site survey.
-
Completion of the exit bridge for pedestrians from the gymnasium.
-
Fitting a new kitchen in the nursery.
The members of the Campus Management Team have been able to complete appropriate Health and Safety courses, some online and others at a training centre. Up to date records of all training courses are stored safely.
The Regular maintenance of systems continues to be carried out in accordance with current regulations by our CMT members and contractors.
The nursery was required by OFSTED to register. The application process was rigorous and demanding but successful for which we are thankful. This will also generate income for those children who qualify under the
government’s Early Years Funding Scheme (EYFS). This programme continues to provide care for the younger children of student families enabling both father and mother to attend classes. Some staff children are also taken care of in the nursery.
www.ntm.org.uk review of the year 2022 13
New Tribes Mission – For the Year Ended 31 August 2022
There were a number of personnel changes to the North Cotes College and Head Office team. A teacher was added to the Biblical Studies team and his wife is now the nursery administrator. Most of the courses this year were taught by the resident teaching staff, but some modules were taught by volunteer guest teachers including pastors from UK churches. We are thankful for the help of volunteers who helped with teaching and those who have helped with caring for children in the nursery and others preparing meals in the refectory. Another volunteer is working with the CMT team and proving very helpful.
B. Head Office
The Head Office administrative team has continued to manage the services offered to its overseas and UK based members. The financial department takes care of all aspects of the administration of funds received for the organisation and the missionaries, in accordance with the wishes of the donors. It also takes care of the financial administration of the college. The annual audit was carried out in December 2022, and we await the report from the auditors. The assessment given to the trustees from the finance team in October 2022 was positive and encouraging. No recourse to using the reserve fund had been necessary. Careful budgeting and control over spending during a period of time when the cost of living has risen sharply, has meant that the charity has been able to maintain its liquid cash assets at a functional level whilst meeting all its financial obligations operationally. We are thankful to God for His faithful provision of all our financial and material needs.

New Tribes Mission – For the Year Ended 31 August 2022
C. Publications
The Link magazine continues to be the primary means of communication to supporters of NTM’s ministry. The NTM website and other social media platforms are also a source of information to keep its supporters current of its news, prayer information, and allows the public to make
financial donations online. It also gives information about the training programme and annual conferences held at the college campus. Prayer letters and information are also made available to supporters of NTM’s ministries.
D. Representation
The promotion of the ministry of NTM is undertaken by its representatives both here in the UK and in Europe through its partner NTM and Ethnos360 affiliates. This year NTM was able to participate in the “Word Alive” conference. Some churches are beginning to extend invitations to the organisation to speak in their churches, but it has not yet returned to precovid levels. Opportunities to speak at university and college Christian Unions are picking up again. A few representation meetings have been conducted via the medium of Zoom and Teams.
The Reach Conference held in March was done online but the Make a Difference Conference was able to be held on campus in June. It was very encouraging to hold our first residential conference since the Covid pandemic outbreak and over 100 visitors attended.
www.ntm.org.uk review of the year 2022 15
New Tribes Mission – For the Year Ended 31 August 2022
The annual Refresher Course for European members and missionaries on home assignment also had to be cancelled because our venue was being used for housing Ukrainian refugees.
The annual “Candles by Candlelight” service for the community was held outside due to concerns about Covid. About a hundred people from the village of North Cotes and other villages attended and was greatly appreciated.
E. Short Term Ministries
No short-term overseas trips were able to be carried out in 2021/2022 due to Covid. The Associate programme sent out one teacher to work in a mission school and a couple of teachers to help families with home schooling. Eight other associate and volunteer members are working at the NTM headquarters and college.
F. Overseas Ministries
The problems created by the Covid pandemic have greatly diminished for most contexts in which NTM conducts its ministries. Testing was still required by some countries and proof of vaccination by others.UK missionaries working in Asia, Africa and South America continued to send encouraging reports on their ministries throughout the year.
The gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ is being proclaimed among people groups who have no access to the Christian message. Those who have embraced this message are being discipled in the context of local churches that are being planted. The Bible is translated into the maternal languages of the people
groups. This follows a programme of linguistic analysis of the language with the goal of providing an alphabet and creating literacy programmes for the people. Hygiene and health programmes have been introduced where they were lacking. Socioeconomic projects have been undertaken when appropriate and acceptable by government authorities. There
www.ntm.org.uk review of the year 2022 16
New Tribes Mission – For the Year Ended 31 August 2022
is a spiritual and moral impact that is valued in the societies where ministry is being undertaken as well as the material, educational and economic benefits that are experienced. Currently, NTM works in over 270 people groups worldwide and is translating the New Testament into 110 languages and has planted over 1200 churches.
G. European Partnership
The annual gathering of European partners took place in Spain in November. Those who could not travel participated through Zoom.
H. General Data Protection Regulation
The GDPR policy is operating, and all departments are complying with the new regulations with regard to the storage of data.
I. Safeguarding Children’s Policy
All policies with regard to the protection of vulnerable beneficiaries and child safety both here in the UK and overseas are being regularly reviewed and members receive periodic training.
J. Future Plans
All three phases of the training programme will continue to be developed to enable our students to be effectively equipped for the changing needs of the ministry locations in which NTM missionaries are serving. We are looking for other suitably qualified teachers for both the Biblical Studies course and the Cross-Cultural Communications course. Other current needs include personnel with IT skills; somebody with general building and maintenance skills and qualified volunteer nursery workers. We are thankful for the many volunteers who help on a short-term basis throughout the course of the year.
www.ntm.org.uk review of the year 2022 17
New Tribes Mission – For the Year Ended 31 August 2022
We are making plans to hold the two annual residential conferences. The Forum for leaders of the European partners will be held in Romania in October. The summer Refresher course in 2023 for missionaries on home assignment is due to be held in the UK in August at the NCC campus.
As churches are seeking to return to a more normal programme of meetings and services more opportunities are opening up for NTM to be represented there. However, some churches have continued to request meetings using Zoom. Meetings are also being planned in universities and colleges.
The trustees are continuing to work on the changing the current charitable status to a CIO.
K. Trustee Training
Some trustee training courses have been successfully undertaken this year. The Trustee Board has met three times during the year and will meet in October for the Annual General Meeting.

Financial Review
Investment policy and objectives
Funds not required for the current needs of New Tribes Mission may be invested in investments of any kind at the discretion of the UK Committee. The trustees have a duty under the Mission's Trust Deed at all times to treat as income funds that might otherwise be regarded as capital.

Total incoming resources amounted to £2,033,807 (2021 total incoming resources £1,233,893). Total resources expended amounted to £2,026,803 (2021 - total resources expended £1,169,067). This gives rise to a total surplus for the year of £7,004 (2021 - a surplus of £64,826).
The net assets of New Tribes Mission amount to £1,305,075 (2021 - total net assets £1,297,250) as at 31 August 2022.

Statement of Trustees Responsibilities
The trustees are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales, the Charities Act 2011, Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charity for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently.
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP.
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent.
-
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements.
-
Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records, which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Report of the Independent Auditors
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of New Tribes Mission (the 'charity') for the year ended 31[st] August 2022, which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Cash Flow Statement and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the charity's affairs as at 31st August 2022 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice;
-
and have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the
www.ntm.org.uk review of the year 2022 23
New Tribes Mission – For the Year Ended 31 August 2022
audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Other information
The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Auditors thereon.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other
www.ntm.org.uk review of the year 2022 24
New Tribes Mission – For the Year Ended 31 August 2022
information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information; we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Charities Act 2011 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
the information given in the Report of the Trustees is inconsistent in any material respect with the financial statements; or
-
sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or
-
- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements, which give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
www.ntm.org.uk review of the year 2022 25
New Tribes Mission – For the Year Ended 31 August 2022
Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Independent Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of noncompliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
-
enquiry of management, those charged with governance and entity’s solicitors around actual and potential litigation and claims.
-
enquiry of entity’s staff to identify any instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations.
-
reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with governance.
-
Receiving financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
-
Auditing the risk of management override of controls including through testing journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness and evaluating the business rational of significant transactions outside the normal course of business.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Independent Auditors.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the charity's trustees, as a body, in accordance with Section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and regulations made under Section 154 of that Act. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity's trustees and the trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors' report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity's trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Notes to the Accounts for year ended 31[st] August 2022
Accounting Policies
Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of New Tribes Mission, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention with the exception of investments, which are included at fair value.
Income
All incoming resources, with the exception of legacies, are included on the Statement of Financial Activities when New Tribes Mission is legally entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy.
Legacies are recognised when it is probable that they will be received.
Provision is made for tax recoverable on income received during the period and included under the relevant heading in the financial statements.
www.ntm.org.uk review of the year 2022 35
New Tribes Mission – For the Year Ended 31 August 2022
Donated fixed assets
Assets given for use by New Tribes Mission are brought into account at a reasonable estimate of their value to New Tribes Mission as determined by the Trustees.
Personal gifts
Funds are received by the UK Head Office for distribution to missionaries. In the financial statements these funds are accounted for as restricted income. The subsequent distribution is accounted for as direct charitable expenditure.
Investment assets and income
Investments are stated at historical cost.
Expenditure
Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings, they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
All expenditure, including expenditure to be met from donations and gifts, or other restricted funding, is recognised when the liability is incurred.
When funding has been received but the expenditure has not been incurred, the funds are carried forward as restricted reserves.
Depreciation is treated as charitable activities as fixed assets are primarily for the use of New Tribes Mission.
www.ntm.org.uk review of the year 2022 36
New Tribes Mission – For the Year Ended 31 August 2022
Governance costs
Comprises the costs of governance arrangements, which relate to the general running of New Tribes Mission.
Allocation and apportionment of costs
Expenditure which does not directly relate to the objects of New Tribes Mission is analysed between charitable support costs, governance costs and costs of raising funds.
Items which involve more than one cost category are apportioned as appropriate to the cost categories involved.
Expenses relating to restricted funds are shown separately.
Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Equipment - 20% on cost Motor vehicles - 10% on cost Furniture - 10% on cost Biomass boiler - 5% on cost
No depreciation is provided on freehold property because the trustees are of the opinion that the open market values of the freehold properties are in excess of the historical cost. An impairment review is undertaken annually, and it is considered by the trustees that there has been no permanent diminution in value.
Assets purchased or donated with a cost or value exceeding £500 are capitalised.
www.ntm.org.uk review of the year 2022 37
New Tribes Mission – For the Year Ended 31 August 2022
Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.
Taxation
New Tribes Mission is exempt from direct tax on its charitable activities.

We give thanks to God for His continued provision for the work of New Tribes Mission, both over this past year, as well as previous years.
Thanks also go to all those churches and individuals that have faithfully supported the work of NTM; by their prayers; through their giving; through their encouragement to the mission as a whole and to each missionary.
Finally, we want to acknowledge each missionary, associate, volunteer and student at North Cotes College who have helped us in the task of reaching the unreached with the good news of the gospel.
