MISSION
PMICAP has been created to empower Praise Ministries International financially, to empower individual’s initiatives and creativities, and to empower community and family needs.
TARGET BENEFICIARIES
PMI Financial Empowerment (PMIFE)
PMICAP is organized exclusively to empower the ministry financially. The program of this financial empowerment is subject to change as available resources with reference to products sales, products developments, and ideology renaissance to innovation become imminent.
Product Sales: PMICAP will replace products on the market for sale when such products become obsolete or they are no longer maximizing profits to bring income to the ministry’s financial needs.
Products Developments: PMICAP will produce or manufacture different products when such products have become disadvantageous to profiteering; the decrease in sale volume due to the lack of demand, or the cost to produce such products is higher than what will be obtained when the products are marketed. PMICAP could replace charcoal with timbers or planks or could plant agricultural products such as cash crops (bitter balls, rice, peppers etc.) and have them marketed for financial gains.
Ideology Renaissance: PMICAP will make changes to products developments or what kind of services to offer to its customers when new idea emerges with reference to innovation, new development, discovery, and invention. For example, presently, PMICAP is embarking on charcoal production as a starting point. As time goes by PMICAP might choose or elect to replace charcoal with solar source such as the grid warehouse solar power source. This grid warehouse is a source for renewable energy that can replace the charcoal. It produces electricity that empowers electric store to do the work of charcoal. It is cheap electricity and convenient than the charcoal when it comes to the use and its production with reference to time, human labors, and financial investment or spending. PMICAP will contact the company that produces this renewable energy and have the products ordered. It will be shipped to Liberia and PMICAP can market the products to its customers. The replacing of charcoal with these products is to avoid deforestation of the Liberia’s vegetations which is dangerous to the environment. If PMICAP continues to cut trees, animal will run away and drought is inevitable because vegetations encourage rainfall and keep animal habitats in place.
Individual’s Initiatives and Creativities (IIC)
PMICAP will empower individual’s initiatives and creativities through mini loan giveaway with zero percent interest and capitals to membership. The members who receive the mini loan with zero percent interest is encouraged to pay tithes faithfully and other donations to Praise Ministries International. PMICAP will empower members financially who want to do business and related projects for self sufficiency and self advancement.
Community and Family Needs (CFN)
PMICAP will invest to community projects or programs and family who are outside of PMI as the need arises based on funds and capitals availability. The community and family needs empowerments are the extensions of evangelism and church planting endeavors.

The department should study and determine what types (retail or wholesales) of sales should be conducted or carried out to a particular market site. If the products are not in demand based on the timing or the season, the products should not be taken to the market; instead, it should be stored or kept in the warehouse until the season or the timing is ready for the sale.
