Tennis Ministry International Comments: 
Tennis Ministry International is not supported by any single organization and looks for God to move in each individual's heart.  In 2006, 100% of each financial gift goes towards the actual expense of the work. This ministry has never been in debt and uses this as a guiding principal. 

In 2006-07, The basics of operating this ministry involves computer hardware and software, communication access within our network to churches, organizations and players, spiritual materials for players and Rev. Kraft travel to the Grand Slam tennis tournaments, qualification  and additional tournaments. (Hong Kong, China; Melbourne, Australia; Paris, France; London, England; and New York, USA).  Rev. Kraft travels economy status on the airline and stays with churches or church families in each Grand Slam city.  Food is sometimes provided by players during the tournament.

Hong Kong Tennis Ministry Association Limited is a registered Hong Kong government charity, Registration number: 953287.  All accounts are audited by a Certified Public Accountant Firm, Pang, Hon & Partners yearly.

Special projects comments:
1. As the work load has grown in the last few years, I find it increasing difficult to keep up with communication with those contacting me from around the world.  Therefore trusting that God wants me to continue to expand the Gospel, we look into hiring a full time secretary.  This person will be brought to Hong Kong as a missionary and will live in the office, maintain it, conduct Bible studies for local inhabitants, and act as my Personal Assistant in Hong Kong during my travels.
2. Currently the ministry office is located in my home.  With my expanding family of children, I would like to see the office relocate to a nearby location.  This will also allow me to house visiting missionaries who desire to come here and train for sports ministry with me as well as offer Bible studies to those living in the local area.

Rev. Bob Kraft comments:
Rev. Kraft, raises his own financial support, through tennis coaching and gifts from supporters.  If the financial budget for the ministry is not met, Rev. Bob Kraft makes up the difference through his own personal support, thus reflecting a possible balance $0 for personal support.
