Bethesda Medical Centre Change in Partnership
As these challenging pandemic times continue, we hope you are well.
I am writing to you to share an important update regarding our association with Bethesda Medical Centre. Three important factors have come to support a change.
1. Four of the OMS Haiti Ministries, including Bethesda Medical Centre, are or are becoming independent
2. Bethesda is in the midst of a major relocation / Construction project
3. There is no sufficient overlap of Bethesda's healthcare and evangelism focus and OMS Canada's charitable purposes of evangelism, discipleship, leadership development and church planting to engage in a ministry agreement.
Considering these factors, and after searching for other options to maintain our relationship with BMC, the OMS Canada Board has recommended that Bethesda Medical Centre consider partnership with Great Commission Foundation (GCF) Canada, another registered Canadian charity. After research, BMC found that GCF Canada is a well-organized and faith-based organization whose charitable purposes are very aligned with Bethesda's core purposes.
This means that the collection and receipting of donations will now go through GCF Canada.
Rest assured that funds collected to date by OMS Canada will be transferred to GCF Canada and will be used for the purpose for which you donated the funds.
Here is a link to Bethesda Medical Centre’s page on the GCF Canada website. https://gcfcanada.com/bethesda-medical-center/
If you have any questions about this transition, please contact the OMS Canada office at 800-784-7077 or by sending an email to mail@omscanada.org.
Thank you for your attention as well as your past and any future support.
Thank you once again.
