Global Missions Health Conference
Dates: Nov 8, 2007 - Nov 10, 2007
Hosted by: InterVarsity's Nurses Christian Fellowship & Southeast Christian Church
Empowering the Indigenous Church
Keynote plenary speaker: Steve Saint
Other plenary speakers include Yvette Maher, Dr. Peter Okaalet, director of MAP's HIV/AIDS programming and Dr. David Stevens, executive director of Christian Medical & Dental Associations.
The conference connects healthcare professionals and students with one another and with mission workers, agencies, non-profit organization leaders, and ministers. Further, through main sessions and breakouts the conference provides information, training, and equipping for medical personnel interested in ways to use their skills to connect people to the Great Physician, Jesus. It is the largest gathering of its kind. Networking among like-minded believers fosters action and unity regarding the call to evangelize every people. Christian healthcare professionals encourage one another in their faith and work — and the intersection thereof. In addition, the conference is designed to encourage all believers with special worship and prayer times intended to strengthen connections to God. The result, we pray, is worldwide impact.
The conference is especially welcoming to students in the healthcare professions. The cost of the conference is highly subsidized for students, and housing is made available to student with members of the church. The only real cost for students is transportation to Louisville, Kentucky.
