Merry Christmas everyone 
  -peace and good will to all

PLEASE I NEED YOUR IMMEDIATE HELP!!!!

Hope you get this on time, I made a trip to Valencia,Spain and had my
bag stolen from me with my passport, credit cards and mobile phones in
it. The embassy is willing to help by letting me fly without my
passport, I just have to pay for a ticket and settle Hotel bills.
Unfortunately for me, I can't have access to funds without my credit
card, I've made contact with my bank but they need more time to come
up with a new one. I need you to lend me some quick funds that I can
give back as soon as I get in. I really need to be on the next
available flight.

I can forward you details on how you can get the funds to me.

I await your response.

Sieg.

Charity Giving seriesl

This information helps donors make better decisions about their charitable giving. We'll be looking at how to choose the right charity, understanding administrative and fundraising expenses, how much to give, and more. Every 2 weeks, you'll receive a new set of tips and information to make your giving easier and have more impact.

Understanding Charitable Tax Credits

Not only is giving to charity a great act of generosity and support, it helps Canadians claim a credit on our taxes as well. Many people don't understand exactly what the credit is or how it works for them.

There is both a federal and a provincial charitable tax credit that you can claim. The federal tax credit is the same for all Canadians and breaks down as follows:

The tax credit on your first $200 in donations is 15%
Any amount donated above $200 is eligible for a 29% tax credit
If you made a donation of $500 and wanted to claim the tax credit, you would be able to claim:
15% of the first $200 = $30
29% of the remaining $300 = $87
That represents a $117 savings on your taxes! Of course, the more you give, the more you're able to save. To find out the provincial tax credits you are also eligible to receive on top of the federal amount, visit the Tax Credit Table on the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) website.

Did You Know?
Donations must be made by December 31st in order to be claimed on that year's taxes.
To claim a donation on your taxes, you must donate to a registered Canadian charity. To make sure your organization is registered, visit the CRA website: www.cra-arc.gc.ca/charities/

You and your spouse (or common law partner) can claim donations made by the other to maximize the tax benefit.
Donating appreciated securities (stocks or mutual funds) is the most tax effective way to give. You pay no capital gains tax and you get the charitable tax credit.
You can claim unused charitable donations on your taxes for up to 5 years. If you've given less than $200 one year, you might want to claim that donation in a year when it will maximize the amount you can claim.

The growing army of the unvaccinated

It's become a legal and politically correct form of discrimination: Unvaccinated kids are being booted from schools, summer camps, and even doctor's offices.
They're trying to make you feel like some kind of fringe weirdo for refusing to pump your kid full of live viruses, mercury, formaldehyde, chicken eggs, DNA from aborted fetuses, and all the other junk used in those shots.

But you're not a weirdo -- and you're not even fringe: New numbers show that a full 10 percent of American families now refuse or delay common childhood vaccinations.
And that's just the beginning -- because the survey in Pediatrics finds that even parents who toe the party line are having big-time doubts over this whole vaccination thing.

Twenty-five percent of those who get every vaccination say they believe it would be safer to delay some of them -- and nearly 30 percent say they don't think there's any harm in skipping the least necessary shots.

I agree -- as long as by "least necessary" you mean ALL of them!
Here are the facts: Vaccinations haven't protected or "saved" children. They've actually compromised the powerful natural immunity of the human body, making people weaker and sicker in the long run.

The perfect example is chickenpox. Kids used to get it all the time in early childhood, when all it meant was a few days of itching and scratching -- and then they were done with it.
You probably remember that yourself.

Today, the chickenpox vaccine has practically eliminated it in those early years -- but vaccinated kids and adults alike are now getting it later in life instead, when it can be dangerous and even deadly.
That's just one shot -- the rest are no better, and many are far worse.

The Institute of Medicine recently admitted that common vaccines can cause seizures, brain inflammation, infection, body encephalitis, pneumonia, meningitis, hepatitis and more -- and this was in a statement in DEFENSE of vaccinations!

If anyone treats you like a fringe weirdo for opposing vaccinations, just show them that. That should shut 'em up.
Proudly on the fringe,
William Campbell Douglass II, M.D.

Revolutionary Discipleship

Ebook By M.E. Brines
$0.00

The author lays out the problems of the Christian church in America today - declining attendance, spiritual apathy and cultural irrelevance - and demonstrates they are directly related to the lack of discipleship training provided by the church and expected of the average Christian. But how would Jesus recruit, educate and train disciples? Wouldn't it be great if there were a book on how to do that? Wouldn't that be the perfect way to model our lives? Wouldn't that be the perfect mission to organize a local congregation around? Isn't that what Christian churches are supposed to do? Currently there are dozens of books available on discipleship by all sorts of authors who come at the subject from every different perspective. But if we really want to know Jesus' ideas on the subject, why not examine the "books" written by the disciples that Jesus personally trained? Revolutionary Discipleship examines the Gospel of Matthew to see exactly how Jesus trained his original disciples and how Christ expects us to be disciples and to make disciples of others. Unlike most discipleship books you may have seen that quote two verses and then expand them into an entire book, he follows Matthew's account of Jesus' training of His disciples verse by verse and in context. It's a journey to discover what the Apostle Matthew said Jesus taught about discipleship, not what the author or any other merely human writer thinks discipleship ought to be. Think of the author as a fellow student; Jesus is your teacher. Along the way you see how the discipleship training that Jesus practiced two thousand years ago compares to what goes on in modern American churches today. How do we stack up against the teachings of the Master? If you want to truly be an effective and obedient follower of Christ in America today - you need to read this book.

                                       Stroke has a new indicator

They say if you e.mail this to ten people, you stand a chance of saving one life.  Will you send this along?   Blood Clots/Stroke - They Now Have a Fourth Indicator,  the Tongue    I will continue to forward this every time it comes around!    STROKE: Remember the 1st Three Letters..... S. T. R.      STROKE  IDENTIFICATION:   During a BBQ, a woman stumbled and took a little fall - she assured everyone that she was fine (they offered to call paramedics) ...she said she had just tripped over a brick because of her new shoes.    They got her cleaned up and got her a new plate of food. While she appeared a bit shaken up, Jane went about enjoying herself the rest of the evening.   Jane's husband called later telling everyone that his wife had been taken to the hospital - (at 6:00 pm Jane passed away.) She had suffered a stroke at the BBQ. Had they known how to identify the signs of a stroke, perhaps Jane would be with us today. Some don't die. They end up in a helpless, hopeless condition instead.    It only takes a minute to read this.   A neurologist says that if he can get to a stroke victim within 3 hours he can totally reverse the effects of a stroke...totally. He said the trick was getting a stroke recognized, diagnosed, and then getting the patient medically cared for within 3 hours, which is tough.     RECOGNIZING A STROKE    Thank God for the sense to remember the '3' steps, STR. Read and Learn!   Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify. Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disaster. The stroke victim may suffer severe brain damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a stroke.    Now doctors say a  bystander can recognize a stroke by asking three simple questions:    S  *Ask the individual to SMILE. T  *Ask the person to TALK and SPEAK A SIMPLE SENTENCE  (Coherently) (i.e. It is sunny out today.)  R  *Ask him or her to RAISE BOTH ARMS.   If he or she has trouble with ANY ONE of these tasks, call emergency number immediately and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher.   New Sign of a Stroke -------- Stick out Your Tongue   NOTE:  Another 'sign' of a stroke is this: Ask the person to 'stick' out his tongue. If the tongue is 'crooked', if it goes to one side or the other  that is also an indication of a stroke.   A cardiologist says if everyone who gets this e-mail sends it to 10 people; you can bet that at least one life will be saved. I have done my part. Will you?
