BIBLICAL FAITH APPLIED TO HEALTH CARE
We have been a part of Samaritan Ministries for a number years,
going back to when I served under OBMM in Grenada.
Each month we receive an informative, encouraging newsletter
including the share slip that tells us to whom we should send our gift.
We have also been on the receiving side--when Titus injured his foot,
when Joel was tested for sleep apnea, and of course for our four maternity needs.
It was such a blessing to receive notes of encouragement
and have all of our bills paid.
It is wonderful to be able to share with other Christians in this way,
knowing that our monthly share is going to an actual person with a real need.

"If you are a committed Christian, you do not have to violate your faith by purchasing health insurance from a company that pays for abortions and other unbiblical medical practices. You can live consistently with your beliefs by sharing medical needs directly with fellow believers through Samaritan Ministries’ non-insurance approach. This approach even satisfies the Federal health care law’s (Affordable Care Act) requirement that you have insurance or pay a penalty-tax (see 26 United States Code Section 5000A, (d), (2), (B)).<br />The IRS will be issuing details explaining how your participation in health care sharing through Samaritan Ministries will exempt you from the penalty-tax. Since those details will not be needed until 2015 when you file your 2014 tax return, it may be a while before the information is released. Samaritan Ministries is working with the IRS to develop these procedures and will notify all of its members as soon as finalized.
Every month the more than 25,000 households of Samaritan Ministries share more than $6 million in medical needs directly—one household to another. They also pray for one another and send notes of encouragement. The monthly share for a family of any size has never exceeded $370, and is even less for singles, couples, and single-parent families.
