We are pleased to offer each student opportunities to be involved in various provincial outreaches such as Primary Healthcare which is an incredibly powerful and proven tool that touches lives of people living in areas where many remain isolated from adequate health care.
  
 
  
These outreaches are definitely life impacting!
The understanding and study of Christian-based Primary Healthcare is not so much an emphasis on knowledge gained as on principles applied. It's very much a journey into God's heart for hurting and broken people.
This type of ministry best represents the 'Samaritan Commission' which is a practical application of the parable that Jesus taught concerning helping those unable to help themselves.
UPDATE: Our outreach program has recently undergone some important changes. We are now working at developing new partnerships with other career field missionaries who have labored for many years in provincial areas including other small and remote islands where they are committed to long term development and community service. And, we have recently hired 4 Filipino staff midwives who come from remote tribal villages. We look forward to new opportunities to work alongside our missionary friends and accompany our new staff midwives back into their villages where we can provide much needed healthcare and serve in other community service projects.
