A Charitable IRA Rollover is a great way to substantially support God’s work through the ministries you care about. Your IRA administrator can make a distribution directly to us which will count towards your Required Minimum Distribution and also reduce your taxable income. Contact the Gift Planning & Trust Services Department for more information about this simple and tax-advantaged gift strategy. (763) 424-8923. msims@mnsda.com.
