History of NMO...

In 1975, a group of Nazarene doctors and dentists formed the Nazarene Action Fellowship. In 1985, it was officially reorganized as the Nazarene Medical-Dental Fellowship.

With greater numbers of health care professionals becoming involved in medical missions, it was apparent that the organization should be expanded to include all health care professionals. In 1988, the constitution was revised and the name was changed to Nazarene Health Care Ministries (NHCM). In 2006, after undergoing many changes in staff and structure, the name was changed to Nazarene Medical Organization (NMO). A different name seemed best to reflect a new beginning for this team of Nazarene healthcare professionals.

NMO has been involved in a variety of international health care ministries, donating medicines and equipment to mission hospitals and clinics, providing short-term personnel for various assignments, and working with Nazarere Compassionate Ministries and the World Mission Division in their worldwide ministries.
