What Lost but Not Forgotten does
Mission
Evangelism and church planting.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.
Programs
A total of 48 mission trips to 10 countries involving 191 villages and 37 different ethnic groups were documented in 2025. Ironically similar to previous year results. Revenue was similar to previous year, and we saw about 6,248 individual decisions for Christ among the focus people groups. Over 27,000 heard the gospel and 483 claimed healing. If not for tragic life circumstances that our president encountered, a more accurate documentation of ministry would be recorded for the last couple months of 2025.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2021, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2021, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2024 to 2025, from $16k to $5k (−66%).
