Wesleyan Medical Fellowship

New Note. Feb. 9, 2015-this organization transformed into Global Partners Health Network. For more information see the link on the sidebar.

Some people may not know that such a fellowship exists. Read more to find out how you can become a part or go to www.wesleyan.org/gp/wmf1 to learn more and sign up. The following information comes directly from the web page. Dr. Storer Emmett is the current director.

Wesleyan Medical Fellowship is an Auxiliary of The Wesleyan Church whose purposes are: to identify and enlist health professionals, including students, around the world; to establish local chapters where there are members; to assist Global Partners in filling positions in our hospitals and clinics overseas; to provide community outreach as needed (blood pressure screening, free clinics, etc.); to find resources to meet health care needs within and outside North America; to provide professional counsel to any area of The Wesleyan Church; to collect and disburse funds for medical missions at home and abroad. Our chief goal is to bring glory to Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.

Volunteerism characterizes our activities and many have done short-term missions trips. The Short-term Medical Assistance Fund was utilized to provide transportation and field support for those going for longer periods to meet emergency personnel needs.

Our efforts as evangelical medical ministries, both at home and abroad, have impacted many, resulting in conversions and subsequent church growth. Our future ministry will be determined by the many changes occurring in medical missions. We are confident that the Holy Spirit will guide the Wesleyan Medical Fellowship to respond to new challenges – for the glory of God.
