Haiti-two months later..
The tremors have left much of the capital and neighboring towns in ruins. The United Nations estimates that 1.3 million people now live in makeshift tent settlements and half a million have become refugees.
In the midst of this indescribable devastation, thousands of relief workers from many countries poured into Haiti to bring hope to those who cannot help themselves. Now, two months removed from that terrible day, thousands still are at work trying to bring order in the midst of chaos. Even though it is not front page news as it was at first, the tremendous task of clean up and rebuilding is just getting started.

You are serious about your stewardship, and our desire is to help you be a great steward. Did you know that for most of us our giving is strictly in cash …which is only 9% of what we own? The remaining 91% of what we own is rarely considered within our stewardship strategy! And yet, gifting these assets can help us make our most significant ministry impact. In addition, gifts of these assets are often very powerful tools for bypassing capital gains, minimizing income taxes or reducing potential estate taxes.
This Gift Planning Resource Center is here to help you to become more aware of the wonderful tools and strategies used by great stewards.

Many countries, like Haiti, were crippled by recent disasters. Lives were lost, homes were destroyed and thousands of people were affected. Angie’s struggle whether to give is understandable. How could she make a difference when the problems in these places are many, and she’s only one person? Wouldn't it be easier for her to make a difference by giving extra money to her church?
While giving to your church is crucial, additional donations of any size make a huge difference. By giving money to OMS International, Angie will be directly helping OMS to feed the hungry, clothe the cold and provide spiritual nourishment for the hurting in those affected areas.
