Proclaiming the Favorable Year of the Lord for Texans in Medical Debt
Still Waters Fellowship
Jesus Christ proclaimed good news to the poor, release to the captives, and freedom to the oppressed (Luke 4:18-19). Today, thousands of people in Texas struggle with the challenge of medical debt that they have no ability to repay. These are our neighbors and this debt is an oppressive burden that affects every aspect of their lives.
As disciples of Jesus, we are called to seek His Kingdom and to share the gospel, through our words and our actions. Through this campaign, we have the opportunity to partner with RIP Medical Debt and to see the Kingdom of God come in the lives of people just like us by helping to set them free from the bondage of their medical debt.
Please give generously and from your heart and then let’s watch what God can do to multiply what we give into an abundant harvest of forgiven debt and changed lives.

How RIP Works
Over a hundred million Americans, one in three, struggles with the weight of medical debt.
-
You make a donation
We use data analytics to pinpoint the debt of those most in need: households that earn less than 4x the federal poverty level (varies by state, family size) or whose debts are 5% or more of annual income.
-
RIP buys medical debt at a steep discount
We buy debt in bundles, millions of dollars at a time at a fraction of the original cost. This means your donation relieves about 100x its value in medical debt.
-
Together we wipe out medical debt
People across the country receive letters that their debt has been erased. They have no tax consequences or penalties to consider. Just like that, they’re free of medical debt.
