Accountability
We take stewardship seriously
Every year, in partnership with more than 4,900 workers and hundreds of thousands of generous supporters, OM shares God’s love with millions of people in some of the hardest parts of the world.
We strive to ensure that all resources entrusted to the ministry are faithfully applied toward the greatest impact. We welcome the opportunity to share about the work being accomplished through the people and financial gifts we are privileged to steward.
FINANCES & RESOURCES
God has entrusted each Jesus follower with finances and resources to steward on behalf of His mission. We are guided by the following principles as we love and care for those who join the cause.
WE ARE GENEROUS
We joyfully live out a culture of generosity. We demonstrate thankfulness and an abundance mentality based on God’s generosity.
WE INVITE
Asking is an invitation to participate in our vision and is always without manipulation. God blesses the inviter and the donor.
WE PARTNER
Donors are essential partners in our work. We authentically welcome their time, talent, and treasure.
WE MINISTER
Financial development is a form of ministry to the fundraiser, the receiver, and the donor.
WE ARE ACCOUNTABLE STEWARDS
Everything is God’s. Therefore, we will be transparent and accountable to our donors and to our fields based on our agreements, and we will show grace to one another.
