The world is crying out for health and the gospel—and this school equips you with both. You’ll combine practical primary health care skills with the love of Jesus to serve the poor and sick in developing communities in Africa.
Grounded in a biblical approach to health and healing, you’ll grow in clinical skills while exploring the eight essential keys for community health: food and nutrition, health education, disease prevention, water and sanitation, clinical care, maternal and child health, essential drugs, and community resources.
