Health & Safety
I cannot even begin to say how please my husband and I are to be a part of CHM. We really appreciate their focus on prayer, and their willingness to provide a way in which believers can still receive financial aid, even for medical expenses that would not otherwise be covered by insurance (such as pre-existing conditions).
It is such a blessing to know that our monthly “insurance” premiums are going towards helping other believers, and such a relief to know that our money is not supporting abortions or unethical expenses. We also appreciate how affordable they are, making it possible for us to have medical insurance coverage even on our small missionary salary. This organization has been an answer to prayer!

* Good Neighbor Insurance

Also view their manual of medical advice and tips for overseas workers. Or browse their library of articles about understanding international health insurance.
Christian Chiropractors Association

Their website lists names and contact information for Christian doctors nation wide.
They also offer a program called ‘Furlough Care Program’. Free chiropractic care is available to missionaries and their families who are at home on furlough or to those who are on deputation and who are about to leave the country for one year or more.

MI and IA – Pine Rest addresses a wide range of mental health needs of people in ministry, including depression, anxiety, and marital and family problems, as well as particular ministry stressors.
A network of believers who share each other’s medical burdens. Similar to Samaritan’s Purse, but with CHM there is only one address where you send monthly payments, and they offer the option for your payment to automatically be deducted from your bank account, making it a much more viable option for overseas missionaries.

là où il n’y a pas de docteur

“Where There is No Doctor” book was published by a private publishing house in Senegal.

(about $35 each).
If you need an online purchasing option this book is also available on Amazon France – but for a much higher price.
The course is available for free download at villagemedicalmanual.org.
