GuideStone IRA

Which type of IRA would you like to open?

Which option should I choose?

• Traditional IRA: An individual retirement savings account frequently opened in addition to — or in the absence of — an employer-sponsored retirement plan. Earnings grow tax-deferred and spouses (working or non-working) are generally eligible to contribute as well.
• Roth IRA: Similar to a traditional IRA in that your earnings will grow tax-deferred. However, a Roth requires you to pay taxes up front when you make contributions in return for tax-free withdrawals when you retire. There is also no required minimum distribution at age 70½ with a Roth and it has a potential early withdrawal feature.

You will need the following information if you plan to fund your account with an electronic payment from your bank or with a rollover/transfer from another retirement account:

Electronic payment from your checking or savings account

• Bank name, address, phone number and routing number
• Account number and type (checking/savings)

Rollover / Transfer of assets from another retirement account

• Institution name, address and phone number
• Account number and type (403(b), IRA, Roth IRA, etc.)

Please Note: To set up an indirect rollover (also known as a 60-day rollover) or a beneficiary IRA, please call a GuideStone Customer Solutions specialist at 1-888-GS-FUNDS (1-888-473-8637) Monday through Friday between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m. CST.
