*The Christian Health Service takes no credit for work done by any facility or missionaries who serve with them. We seek to make known the work God is doing through mission facilities and their missionaries around the world. By doing so we seek to: 1) help those who are called to go discover where God maybe calling (short or long term), 2) help those who are called to give identify missionaries and facilities for financial partnership, 3) help those who are called to pray connect with healthcare missionaries needing prayer support.
