Ministry Opportunities
This Week
MISSIONARY OF THE MONTH: ISAAC SHAW - Isaac Shaw leads Delhi Bible
Institute (DBI) and thankfully reports the provision of God for a new center
in Punjab and the completion of buildings at Lucknow (paraphrasing his
reporting). There have been hard and difficult times, but the goodness of
the Lord is evident in all 7 of our centers and the 70 related church plants.
A record 7500 have been impacted by our training programs. People
have received new hope and direction in their lives after meeting Jesus.
Our program is simple; to equip believers through our 1 week, 1 month
and 1 year programs and backing all our programs with books of which
we now have 42 titles. People intentionally love others through our centers
and special programs and remember the poor continually in all we do asking the Lord to take us to other capitals in the North. All this is possible
because of the partnership with people like you and your sacrificially
giving.

We are each to be wise stewards of the funds that God has given to
us. This short note is a tip for anyone who is over 70 1/2 years old and
also has a traditional IRA account. Everyone in that situation is getting
required minimum distributions or RMD's from their IRA. The RMD
distribution amounts are usually included in your income on your tax
return and you pay taxes on these RMD amounts. If you also give funds
to Cornerstone, then you are a candidate to do a Qualified Charitable
Distribution (QCD). A QCD gift directly from your IRA account to Cornerstone will enable you to avoid having to pay taxes on the portion of your
RMD you give to Cornerstone. Essentially, it can make your Cornerstone
contribution "deductible". The bottom line is that by doing a QCD to
Cornerstone, you can save 15%, 25% or more of your donation. If you
have questions on this, you may contact:
David Wilson, [email protected] or
Craig Wellman, [email protected].
