Here we are, ten years from our infancy as an independent non-profit ministry, and our minds are blown away by what God has done.
It was sink or swim – we had to learn quickly. Our nascent vision eventually materialized into organizational structure as we learned how to navigate this new environment. Now, a decade later, we have grown to 53 staff members and an operating budget of over $3 million.
We delved into new areas of ministry, creating a power solutions team to address some of the greatest challenges ministries are facing in developing countries. We created and implemented new, robust designs of our SonSetLink® technology to keep the clean water flowing in remote regions. We expanded our list of ministry partners to reach more isolated areas of the globe with the gospel. We developed a solid mobilization plan and encouraged each of our coworkers to be active recruiters for the organization.
Most importantly, we rejoice in the kingdom impact over this last decade. We have been honored to assist more than 700 ministries in 111 countries during this time. As a result, refugee camps in Africa are able to reach their growing populations with gospel broadcasts; villages in the Amazon rainforest can hear life-giving truth over their SonSet® radios; churches in Ukraine are using solar-powered, ministry-enhancing tools to meet physical and spiritual needs during a devastating time of war; and remote villages in Asia are being transformed through access to clean water and the gospel.
We give glory to God for the great progress we have made organizationally and the momentum that has been built over the past 10 years. This momentum is propelling SonSet Solutions forward as we embrace more opportunities to harness technology for God’s great Kingdom purposes.
