Overview
Nazarene Compassionate Ministries is increasingly concerned about the health care needs that many of our Nazarene families are experiencing globally. The news is full of reports of floods, hurricanes, mudslides, earthquakes, tsunamis, war, and devastation in many countries where the Church is actively sharing the gospel. The Church of the Nazarene has a presence in over 150 countries, many of which are underdeveloped and poverty stricken. We are holiness people who are not only concerned about spiritual welfare but also the physical, mental, and social needs of persons throughout our world.
Many countries in need of help face severe shortages of doctors, nurses, and health workers to deliver whatever aid is offered. In addition, unfortunately even countries that train health workers see many migrate to jobs, even for menial tasks, to wealthier countries. While the Church of the Nazarene has expanded, and is ever growing, we realize that in many places throughout the world health care is severely lacking and does not meet the basic needs of people and communities. NCM seeks to come alongside health care workers and systems through training, resources, and support to help address the spiritual and physical needs in surrounding communities—reaching those in need in the name of Christ.
