Some Testimonials of this Ministry...
I am so thankful for your ministry. I
had been married less than two months when a welding accident shattered
my left lower leg. Thankfully they were able to save the leg, and two
surgeries later they had put me back together. I arrived home five days
later to the first of many bills already in our mail box, and thought,
“Okay, Lord, let’s see how You’ll provide.” The hospital was very
familiar with your Ministry, and took 40 percent off our bill, and was
willing to wait for payment ‘til my need was published. As soon as my
need was published the checks started pouring in. I can’t tell you how
encouraging all the prayers and notes were, and what a blessing it was
to have others help during my need.
As I sit here a year later, I have a clean bill of health from the
doctor, and all the bills are paid. The Lord sure used believers all
across this country to be a real blessing to us. What a faith-building
reminder that, “My God shall supply all your needs.” Thank you all for
being a part of it!

To say thank you is an understatement.
The timely manner in which the funds were sent in to meet this need was
a testimony in itself. The hospital was surprised at how quickly the
debt was cleared after our accident in spring 2005. The auto accident my
wife and I were in was unbelievable. We rolled several times across the
median on Interstate 30. My neck was broken in three places and most of
my ribs. Thanks to the answered prayers, God healed me. My wife suffered
a broken arm that required surgery but because of God’s mercy, she was
spared from more injuries.
Then in October 2005 while ministering in Helsinki, Finland, my back
went out. I was flat on my back and in great pain. By the prayers of
God’s people, I was able to make a trip to the states to have back
surgery. The quickness of you, the share givers, was a testimony to
those that do not understand this program. Thank you for all the
prayers, cards and words of encouragement. Jessie and I have been able
to share how this program works and now have a few friends in ministry
that have become members of this ministry.
We are both healed from our injuries and able to minister to the field
where God has called us. Again, thank you for all of the cards and words
of encouragement along with the shares to pay the debt of my hospital
bill. Please pray for our traveling safety, as our ministry requires for
us to travel a good bit.

Christians are helping
Christians with medical expenses through a unique
ministry that doesn't involve insurance.
* NOTE: The ruling by the Supreme
Court does NOT change the approved status of this
ministry. Even "if" the Health Care Law becomes
valid, this ministry has been approved as one of the
exempt groups. As a Christian, this may be your absolute
BEST option for Health Care Coverage.
You can be a part of this
growing network of believers faithfully applying
Biblical principles.
When we all work together,
the burden on each of us is very light. As a result,
since 1994 the monthly share has not exceeded $355.00
and is even lower for singles and couples!

We believe Jesus
Christ is the Ultimate Provider for all of life’s needs. Individuals
and families have the primary responsibility for their own health
and decisions related to seeking health care. When they have burdens
that are greater than they can bear, we firmly believe that the body
of Christ, at the local church level first, and then in a broad
corporate sense, should bear one another’s burdens to fulfill the
law of Christ (Galatians 6:2).
Members must be professing Christians
who attend church regularly. They must agree to abstain from sinful
practices such as drug abuse and sexual immorality. They must be
accountable to a pastor or other church leader for the needs they
submit.
WHAT ABOUT THE NEW HEALTH INSURANCE LAWS?
The U.S. House of Representatives has
passed a health care bill that was previously approved by the U.S.
Senate on Christmas Eve.
We are thankful to God that the bill
included an exemption for members of health care sharing ministries
from the health insurance mandate in the bill, and that both the
individual and employer mandates are not scheduled for
implementation until 2014.

Some Testimonials of this Ministry...
I was amazed and blessed by how
much doctors were willing to cut my bills simply because I
asked. Three different offices cut my bills in half and even the
hospital gave me more than 10 percent discount.
It is so nice receiving the checks in the mail from individuals
along with notes of encouragement. Some even sent advice to help
with the problem. It is so much more personal than conventional
insurance and less hassle. It feels like a big family. I have
been praying for the needs in the Prayer Guide. I will never
meet those people or know if my prayers have been answered but I
have to believe God’s Word that tells me He will answer. There
is a connection there even though I don’t know the people.

God gave us the opportunity to
be able to give a gift to the unpublished request this month. It
was our first time giving like this and I can't tell you what a
blessing I felt! Writing that check and sending a card. As I
read the newsletter and the thank you notes that are printed
there, the folks often express how great it is to have such a
personal touch...feeling so connected to the family of God. I
felt just a bit of that this week, in the sending of my gift.
Reminds me that when we obey God it always turns around to a
blessing of us! Thanks for your work in this ministry. Your
labor IS NOT in vain :)

This ministry was an answer to
prayer as we searched for medical insurance or an alternative.
We have not been disappointed. It’s a privilege to share in the
needs of others both financially and also prayerfully. It is
different knowing that the funds you send are going directly to
a brother or sister in Christ rather than a big company making
large profits. I’ve been on the receiving end as well. The Lord
has provided for the medical expenses through our fellow members
and it’s encouraging to know that folks are praying for you and
also to receive the caring notes. I hope I will never have to
look elsewhere again.
We tell others often about Samaritan Ministries and encourage
them to join. I greatly appreciate SMI’s open mind to healthy
eating, nutrition, etc. That’s refreshing! I think it’s key in
returning to health or staying healthy.
