Graduate Healthcare Ministries
We are students and faculty following Jesus together, while participating in God's healing work in the world.
We long for everyone, the people who give and receive care, to flourish and experience God's love.
On campus we focus on:
- INVITATION - Cultivating communities that invite people to follow Jesus
- FORMATION - Encouraging individual and communal rhythms that connect us to God
- INTEGRATION - Equipping students and faculty to integrate their faith with their work in healthcare.
As people serving in healthcare, we:
- Recognize the image of God in every person, treating each with compassion, respect, and dignity
- Lead with humility and dependence on God, always remembering that it is God who brings healing and restoration
- Seek to influence broken healthcare systems so that every person has access to quality care.
Jesus, Sent to Heal
