OM is driven by God's unchanging truth in the Scriptures: mankind has lost its way and is separated from the fulness of relationship with the Creator of the universe. Consequently men and women today are alienated from one another and societies seem bent on destruction. No one has grounds to believe that today's humanism will provide lasting answers or solutions. Thus modern man is "without hope and without God in the world" (Eph.2:12).

But God so loves the world - us and our neighbors - that He has sent His Son as the personal atonement for our sins. Jesus Christ's offer of salvation to every human being opens the way for a new relationship not only with God but with one another. The uniqueness and power of this Gospel - Good News - is evident throughout two millenia and around the globe. And Christ has commissioned every one who trusts in Him to take this life-changing (and therefore hope-bringing) message to the ends of the earth.

The core principles of faith and obedience, willingness to sacrifice, readiness to submit and serve, courage to dream and take risks, and an open door to any believer for involvement have stood the test of time.

Haiti Earthquake Relief

March 7 Update on OM’s Haiti Involvement

During the first week of March, a couple sent by the OM office in the Netherlands helped our work in Haiti. He is a structural engineer and inspected several buildings including orphanages, churches and some houses. He provided reports with recommendations on each. The wife is a psychologist, and she met with hundreds of adults and children, helping them process their reactions to the earthquake and the pain of their losses.

At the end of the week, an eight-member medical team sent from OM's staff in Uruguay arrived to assist. They are helping to serve a volunteer medical clinic and also are visiting orphanages and doing clinics for the children.

Our team continues to deliver food to various locations. At OM’s office in the USA, staff are collecting some specific food and hygiene items and some shelter items to fill a shipping container. After this shipment, we will focus on obtaining food and supplies within Haiti to help stimulate the local economy.

OM's Caribbean team is grateful for the funds they continue to receive from various OM offices around the world. To give toward the relief efforts, go to  Canada Helps .
