South East Asia Prayer Center

What South East Asia Prayer Center does

South East Asia Prayer Center (SEAPC), founded in 1991 by Mark Geppert and headquartered in Oakmont, Pennsylvania, is a U.S.-registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit Christian ministry operating in 68+ nations. The organization's central methodology is "prayer walking," through which it establishes prayer walking communities in partnership with local churches that subsequently deliver programming in four platforms: Parenting, Education, Healthcare, and Economic Development. Its flagship educational initiative is the N+1 program (national curriculum plus Christ-centered teaching) operating across 488 public schools in Cambodia's Banteay Meanchey province under a partnership with the Cambodian Ministry of Education, supported by nine vocational technical training centers. Additional programs include Raising Kids Global child sponsorships across four nations (~700 children daily at $100/month), medical mission trips, microenterprise training (Dream Tank in Honduras), and 20+ children's homes.

SEAPC's revenue model is built on recurring individual giving: monthly partnerships at $100, $250, and $500 tiers, child sponsorships at $100/month, stock donations, planned/legacy giving, and designated missionary support, processed through the Givecloud platform. The organization supplements giving with content commerce — published books (notably The Attack Lambs by Mark Geppert), YouTube media, and three free eCourses (World Changers, Attack Lambs, Kids in Missions) that serve as top-of-funnel engagement assets. Distribution occurs through self-serve digital channels (seapc.org, Givecloud), direct field recruitment for short- and long-term mission trips, local church partnerships globally, and government agreements. Administrative overhead is maintained below 8% of funds received, and the organization holds ECFA membership and GuideStar Platinum Seal of Transparency, with annual audits by Wessel & Company.

The current strategic focus is the World Changers campaign targeting $15M in cumulative funding by end of 2026, with goals to expand prayer communities from 167 to 237 nations, grow Attack Lambs training from 69 to 132 nations, scale language translations from 24 to 30, and add sustainable harvest centers to reach 30 nations. Key dependencies include the Geppert family leadership (founder Mark Geppert and son Matt Geppert), major financial partners such as the Kim Lai Family and Singapore church donors, and operational partners including Frontier Harvest Ministries (China), New Hope Children's Homes (Cambodia), and Every Home for Christ (curriculum licensing).
