“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem….” These words of Jesus (Mark 23 and Luke 13) express the deep affection God has for the land and people of Israel.

The effects of today’s healthcare professions have taken its toll on marriages. Increasing time pressures, fiscal burdens, continuing education requirements and countless demands have made building strong marriage relationships all the more difficult. CMDA recognizes a need to provide healthcare couples with an opportunity to nurture and grow in their marital relationships. The Marriage Enrichment Weekends offer a comfortable, get-away-from-it-all setting, allowing couples to communicate and experience a deeper appreciation for their marriage partnership.

February 1 – February 2, 2019:
We know the level of stress placed on healthcare providers is high, and the temptation to turn to unhelpful and even harmful things for relief is very strong. Burnout seems to be part and parcel of the work. How can relief and joy be found again? This retreat is designed for you – to be a time of rest, a time to meet and fellowship with others in your profession, and a time to learn some helpful tools for your heart and mind’s good. Please join us!

His knowledge of the Bible, archeology, history and ancient Greek will astound you!

We will enjoy outstanding accommodations and savor amazing cuisine. And along the way, our guide will inspire and educate us on how the Body of Christ was birthed, struggled, met opposition, and yet grew within this culture.

Medical missions brings the remedy for disease, at home and abroad. And medical missions brings the remedy for sin —Jesus Christ. But in order to do either, medical missions requires healthcare professionals committed to bring the remedy – the good news of Jesus. Committed healthcare professionals remain the greatest need in closed countries to provide God’s spiritual and physical remedies. Meanwhile, the world is coming to us, providing daily opportunities to share the gospel with people from most of the 195 countries of the world.
