ON CAMPUSES AND AT FESTIVALS, IN STADIUMS AND ARENAS, FROM LATIN AMERICA, TO EASTERN EUROPE, AND ACROSS AMERICA, BOTH IN PERSON AND DIGITALLY, THE GOSPEL IS GOING FORTH TO AS MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE. THE PULSE CAMPUS TOUR IN FEBRUARY 2023 REACHED 7,000+ COLLEGE STUDENTS WITH THE GOSPEL IN 8 DIFFERENT CITIES, WITH NEARLY 1,000 RESPONDING TO THE GOSPEL. BUILDING ON THE MOMENTUM FROM THIS TOUR AND THE ASBURY REVIVAL GOING ON AT THE SAME TIME, WE HOSTED A COMMISSIONING EVENT AT RUPP ARENA IN LEXINGTON, KY THAT REACHED THOUSANDS WITH THE GOSPEL IN PERSON AND VIA LIVESTREAM. OVER 50,000 HEARD THE GOSPEL THROUGH FTS-OU BOTH IN PERSON AND DIGITALLY, MAKING THIS THE LARGEST OUTREACH ON A SECULAR CAMPUS IN AMERICAN HISTORY. ADDITIONALLY, OVER 240,000 WATCHED A CLIP OF NICK'S GOSPEL MESSAGE ON SOCIAL MEDIA. THE GOOD FRIDAY GLOBAL BROADCAST REACHED 14,000,000 ACROSS RUSSIA (ACCORDING TO THE RUSSIAN BROADCASTING NETWORK), 220,000+ VIA US TV BROADCAST, AND 164,000+ ON YOUTUBE. OVER 67,000 WERE REACHED WITH THE GOSPEL BOTH IN PERSON AND DIGITALLY THROUGH AMPLIFY FEST IN BENTON, AR AND OVER 1,000 RESPONDED TO THE GOSPEL. BOTH FTS-OU AND AMPLIFY WERE REBROADCAST ACROSS EASTERN EUROPE, REACHING MILLIONS IN THIS REGION WITH THE GOSPEL. THE GOSPEL WENT OUT TO 2,500+ AT THE ARKANSAS STATE FAIR, WITH 200+ RESPONDING TO THE GOSPEL. 3290783 83875 8907 PULSE TRAINS AND EQUIPS THE NEXT GENERATION OF EVANGELISTS AND LEADERS TO SHARE THE GOSPEL BY ALL MEANS POSSIBLE. THROUGH PULSE'S EVANGELISTIC TRAINING INITIATIVES, THE NEXT GENERATION IS BEING EQUIPPED AND UNLEASHED TO PROCLAIM THE GOSPEL IN EVERY SPHERE, BOTH IN PERSON AND ONLINE. A TOTAL OF 300 YOUNG EVANGELISTS HAVE BEEN TRAINED OR ARE CURRENTLY BEING TRAINED THROUGH THE PULSE 100 YOUNG EVANGELIST PROGRAM. IN JUNE 2023, FOUR OF THESE YOUNG EVANGELISTS TRAVELED TO ROMANIA TO SHARE THE GOSPEL. SINCE 2019,160+ INTERNS HAVE BEEN TRAINED AND DISCIPLED THROUGH THE PULSE INTERNSHIP PROGRAM. IN DECEMBER 2022, WE PURCHASED ANOTHER PROPERTY IN DOWNTOWN MINNEAPOLIS IN ORDER TO BUILD OUT A GLOBAL TRAINING CENTER. THIS SPACE WILL COMBINE WITH OUR NEXT DOOR HOUSING CENTER TO FORM THE PULSE HOUSING & TRAINING CENTER THAT WILL RAISE UP YOUNG EVANGELISTS AND LEADERS FOR DECADES TO COME. 11765670 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 89 0 1 116 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 8 7 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 CA FL KY MD MN NY SC VA WV HI IL MA NH NC ND PA X ZACHARY LARSON 6122488080 600 S 9TH STREET MINNEAPOLIS MN 55404 NICK HALL PRESIDENT 45.00 X X 217484 0 24726 KIRK HUMPHREYS CHAIRMAN 1.00 X X 0 0 0 BEN MELAND VICE CHAIR 1.00 X X 0 0 0 TROY NELSON TREASURER 1.00 X X 0 0 0 LAUREL BUNKER DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 DONDI EDWARDS DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 STACIE TROTT-BIBB DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 SUSIE WILSON DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 JOHN OREN VP OF FINANCE & OPS 45.00 X 140688 0 28662 KAREN BERG-JOHNSON VP OF DONOR MINISTRIES 45.00 X 145740 0 36260 EBONY SMALL FORMER VP OF GLOBAL MIN 45.00 X 159544 0 5692 663456 0 95340 4 0 1 0 0 3000604 8994020 350384 11994624 HONORARIUM 541900 17400 17400 17400 128245 128245 171361 132993 38368 38368 38368 16000 22033 -6033 -6033 -6033 154603 3000604 1139202 -984599 -984599 14901 9212 5689 5689 OTHER INCOME 541900 67032 67032 BILLBOARD ADVERTISING 541800 4085 4085 71117 11264811 23089 4085 -756987 167751 167751 821175 309701 190506 320968 3091752 2344945 339376 407431 24711 11632 5287 7792 393772 266829 47028 79915 228863 162398 23754 42711 1502536 1502536 25972 16738 6522 2712 93873 93873 1100368 843773 23672 232923 1223317 1155366 150 67801 314824 150701 40116 124007 17472 17472 251303 124201 112284 14818 797683 710413 2405 84865 48441 39224 1372 7845 258205 152625 90583 14997 103577 1096 102481 VENUE COSTS 3918638 3544646 650 373342 SUBSCRIPTIONS 205877 172815 19670 13392 MISCELLANEOUS 109257 88030 17482 3745 BANK CHARGES 40954 250 40704 580 580 14740901 11765670 1082094 1893137 9187591 1733084 10970 10980 25000 1036647 556758 22310 2614 96822 795118 9730149 717449 6498018 9012700 16852358 12136254 1891339 559630 91695 1891339 651325 X 11581212 10899074 3379807 585855 14961019 11484929 16852358 12136254 X -3476090 0 X X 0 1 X 1 0 X 8301606 12522895 6102000 21267217 11994624 60188342 8301606 12522895 6102000 21267217 11994624 60188342 4638986 55549356 12185 17005 19199 191510 299606 539505 6841 3875 3880 15862 71116 101574 60829421 482171 0.91320 0.90000 X SCHEDULE A, PART II, LINE 10, EXPLANATION OF OTHER INCOME: OTHER INCOME RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 9333658 459445 8874213 256491 164671 91820 140000 93333 46667 9012700 X 11403836 139025 139025 11264811 0 11264811 14879926 139025 139025 14740901 0 14740901 PART X, LINE 2: THE ORGANIZATION IS EXEMPT FROM INCOME TAXES UNDER SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE AND MINNESOTA STATUTE 290.05.
