Steer Money to Missions




Do you know a farmer or rancher who may desire to be actively involved in missions but who may lack the capital to expand their herds or acreage in order to support missions like they really want to?

STEER, Inc. ("STEER") is an evangelical, agricultural, fundraising organization which supports missions around the world. The goal of STEER's ministry is to assist selected mission organizations with the fundraising necessary to bring about world evangelization.

STEER's stewardship program operates as follows: Donors provide cash for a $700 Unit. This Unit is insured by STEER, Inc. The $700 UNIT is invested with a farmer/rancher to buy livestock or assist in planting a crop for missions. This is only an investment from which earnings are sent to missions each year. When the farmer/rancher markets the livestock or crop, the gain is processed for missions by STEER and the Unit is reinvested.

Working together, the Donors and the Farmers and Ranchers help to provide the funds for the Lord's work so that the missionaries and mission projects that are the benefactors of this program can do what God has called them to.

Like Steer, Inc. One Mission Society believes that the Great Commission is for everyone.  OMS has a long history with Steer, Inc.  In fact, just last year, through the efforts of the ranchers and farmers, Steer, Inc. was able to send over $23,000.00 in support to missionaries within OMS and over $1.3 million to other missions organizations.  Since it's creation in 1957, Steer, Inc. has supported missions with over $18.5 million dollars. PRAISE THE LORD!

If you know a farmer or rancher who may be interested in this program, please pass this information along to them.  Keith Wright once said, "Lost people matter to God, and so they must matter to us." Let us act on this and not forget it until the Good Lord comes back for His people.
