Are you over age 70 and 1/2 and need to take withdrawals from your IRA?

Are you concerned about your increasing income tax?

Contribute directly from your IRA and save tax with the IRA Charitable Rollover.

When you give through an IRA Charitable Rollover, the amount given to charity is not included in taxable income. 

Donors who give any amount can benefit:

• Tax on Social Security benefits is minimized by keeping IRA distributions out of taxable income;
• Donors who are no longer able to itemize deductions enjoy a reduction in taxable income;
• Donors who give large gifts can keep their tax return simple by keeping their taxable income lower
• Donors who want to give above the 50% deduction level can do so without a carryforward limitation.

How to Do It:
Contact your IRA custodian and tell them you want to make a “qualified charitable distribution” to your favorite charity.   The amount transferred will not need to be reported as income, and you will not have to itemize to take the deduction.

You’ll be served well and the Kingdom will benefit through simplicity and convenience of the IRA Charitable Rollover.

Village Missions Drive is now on the map in New Gloucester, Maine.

On Thursday, April 26, our excavator, Bruce Traford, moved in heavy equipment and began work on what is to become “Village Missions Drive” in New Gloucester, Maine.  This development is an answer to much prayer, and several years of planning.

The Village Missions Retirement Community  will have eight small 2 bedroom homes.  Retired missionaries will be able to rent a home at an affordable price. 

Village Missionaries serving in the east have long hoped for affordable retirement housing.  These faithful servants have willingly labored in churches that have not been able to provide for their financial well-being.  We praise the Lord for His provision.
