A WORLD IN CRISIS: THE HEALTHCARE GAP
Patients Carry More than Physical Illness
What would you do if your child were critically illāand no doctor was available? For millions, this is daily reality.
Half the world still lacks access to essential, lifesaving healthcare. Every year:
Over 5 million children under five die needlessly
A mother dies every 2 minutes in childbirth
Countless patients go without urgently needed surgery
This is a global healthcare crisis.
Patients Carry More than Physical Illness
God has raised up highly trained Christian doctors in underserved countriesāready to serve their own people. The barrier isnāt callingāitās funding.
Our Response
At Christian Health Service Corps (CHSC), we believe no one should die simply because they lack access to care.
For generations, Christian medical missionaries have answered Christās callāto heal the sick and share the Gospel, transforming lives and communities.
Healing Body and Spirit
True healing goes beyond physical care. Patients often face fear, suffering, and uncertaintyāand without spiritual care, healing remains incomplete.
Through Christ-centered healthcare, patients and families encounter lasting hope. Healthcare workers are strengthened in their calling, and faith becomes part of everyday care.
By integrating compassionate medical care with spiritual support, we not only treat illnessāwe bring hope that endures.
A Powerful Solution: National Physicians
God has raised up highly trained Christian doctors in underserved countriesāready to serve their own people. The barrier isnāt callingāitās funding.
Rural hospitals canāt afford to hire them
Patients canāt pay for care
Doctors are forced to stay in cities to survive
The Opportunity
Supporting a national physician is one of the most impactful ways to expand care:
$15,000 – $35,000 /year
can fully fund a doctor
Immediate placement in high-need areas
Strengthens hospitals and prevents burnout
You empower local Christian leaders
Together, we can reach millions ā physically and spiritually
