Hear healthcare missionaries share their journeys. In the first hour hear a panel of two docs and two nurses answer your questions as well as:
- How do I find God’s guidance in the journey?
- Why and how do I connect with a mentor or agency or team or training?
- What if my spouse or family are not supportive of me doing missions?
The second hour will be small discussion group with a missionary coach and others like you in your current stage:
- Exploring full-time missions
- Heading towards full-time missions
- Single or married
One participant shared after one of these discussions, “I felt so overwhelmed at the size of GMHC. It was easy to feel lost in the crowd. In the Exploring small group discussion I was able to share my questions and fears.”
