Today we were pleased and proud to be exhibiting at the Christian Medical Fellowship’s Who is my neighbour now? virtual conference, which explored the various ways that Christian healthcare professionals can care for our neighbours (Luke 10:25-37) like Good Samaritans and obey Jesus’ Great Commission to ‘Go and make disciples of all nations’ (Matthew 28:19).
It was an excellent event. A great time was had by all who attended, and the day kicked off with two questions…
Who are our neighbours?
Having already said that we should ‘love our neighbours as ourselves’, in the Parable of the Good Samaritan Jesus explored the identity of these neighbours...
What do our neighbours believe?
And it would be good to know what our neighbours believe in. We were particularly struck by this video…
That said, please note that the A/B/C diagram is meant to represent statistical thirds. It is absolutely untrue to say that people groups living in the Middle East, South-East Asia and Western Pacific (where we have our non-UK base) fall into Group C; rather, their people groups are largely Groups A and B.
Serving our neighbours in a time of pandemic
The pandemic may still be wreaking havoc across our globe, but our telemedicine offender healthcare service is able to reach patients from Groups A, B and C! You could volunteer for us as a telemedicine healthcare professional, regardless of where in the world you are right now. All you need is a laptop and a reasonably reliable wifi signal.
We are also looking for healthcare professionals on gap years and for even longer periods, and again you could work from anywhere in the world or (once the pandemic permits international travel) or you could serve from our Philippines base.
In addition we are looking for non-healthcare professionals: we need a chief operations officer (who could be based anywhere in the world) and a Philippines-based social worker. Why not get in touch with us?
