Dear Orphan Ministry Alliance, Happy New Year (a little late) from OMA! Our team is excited about what God has done and is doing through OMA and the churches and organizations of West Michigan in the way of orphan care and adoption. Our quarterly meetings have proven to be an excellent way to encourage one another and help keep the inspiration and momentum going in our ministries. Currently we are seeking future meeting locations and even considering the possibility of a stable venue for OMA Quarterly meetings. If you believe your church or organization would be a good place for one or more meetings and would be willing to help facilitate the scheduling, please reply to this e-mail. We are looking for a location fairly centrally located in the Grand Rapids area (at least close to major highways) with a rent-free space for our use. Let me know if you need more details. Looking forward to seeing you  soon! Many blessings to you all, Jodi, for the OMA Team PLEASE JOIN US! Orphan Ministry Alliance Quarterly Meeting Tuesday, February 28, 2012, 7-9pm Madison Square Church Rm 305/306 Come in main doors off Madison Ave. Meeting room is located on the 2nd floor. Please join us for this opportunity to share what God is doing through your ministry and others throughout the area, express need for support and encouragement and talk about opportunities to partner together. Save the Date for additional 2012 OMA Meetings Details TBD: Tuesday, April 17 Tuesday, September 18 Tuesday, November 13 ADOPTION TAX CREDIT PETITION: As many of you know, the adoption tax credit is scheduled to phase out and then go away in 2013. The tax credit has been an important way to encourage and help families adopt. Please click here to sign a petition to make adoption costs fully refundable in the 2012 & 2013 tax years.
