Pioneering Initiatives

New Places

OM’s ministry around the world is characterised by the desire to go where few are willing to go and to identify those who have no opportunity to hear about Jesus. This means reaching out to those of other religions as well as people in remote, inaccessible parts of the world.

Planting churches and distributing Bibles and Christian literature play a vital part; ensuring people can learn about Jesus in their own language and cultural setting.

New Ways

While proven methods are still valued, OM workers are constantly seeking creative and innovative ways to connect with people and to demonstrate and proclaim the truth about Jesus.

OM Sportslink uses the universal language of sport to open doors for the Gospel; equipping and empowering people to be effective in sport ministry. Gifted artists are building bridges for the Gospel through community art projects.

And businessmen and women are bringing about spiritual, social, economic and environmental transformation by using their skills in the heart of the community. Business as Mission (BAM) helps to create businesses that are run for profit on the basis of kingdom principles.

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 .
