Welcome to the next issue of MMN News.

Trustees

In the last month the trustees met for their annual in-person meeting and it was great to spend time together, praying and considering the way forward for MMN. The needs of medical mission is changing and we want to support those who are making Jesus Christ known through healthcare in the best way we can.

It was our first meeting without Peter Gill. After many years of being involved in MMN, including time as Chair, Peter has decided it is time to move on as he has many other responsibilities. We have really appreciated all of his input, hard work, wisdom and counsel and will miss him being involved as a trustee.

Grant Awards

The meeting, also, gave us opportunity to consider some more grant applications and we are delighted to be able to help... Kijabe Hospital in Kenya - supporting the training of clinical workers in family medicine Accomplish Children's Trust - in providing wheelchairs and support chairs to children living with disability in Uganda and Kenya Chitokoloki Mission Hospital in Zambia - to help build more housing for hospital staff as they need nurses so they can use the new wards they have recently completed Christian Faith Ministries in Nigeria - helping in the running costs of the hospital they have on site that cares for all those at their Bible college, schools, crisis centres and those in the local community Seedsowers - building a permanent clinic for maternal and under 5's care in another village in Malawi

Conferences

Margaret at Echoes Day We were able to share about the work of MMN on our stand at the Echoes Day in Bristol. It was a really encouraging day hearing about mission work across the world and to engage with some of our supporters and others who hadn't heard about the work of MMN before.

CMF National Conference Grev had a good weekend spending time with the the doctors and nurses at the conference, hearing from God's Word, considering how we can thrive in our working environment, hearing reports of what God is doing in medical mission and sharing together. It was great to meet up with some of our partners and supporters.

MMN Magazine

Our next magazine is coming out next month, where we hear from a number of projects that MMN has been able to send financial support to. We hear of how God has been working in different areas of the world, and how He is using healthcare as a means to show His love for people. The magazine will also feature an update about the future of MMN and how we can best support our partners moving forward.

Project Focus

Our project focus this month is Emanuel Clinic in Moldova who run mobile clinics in partnership with local churches, to bring healthcare and pastoral care to rural communities.
