Purpose
The Christian Health Service Corps (CHSC) is dedicated to transforming the health of children and families in their communities. CHSC health professionals save many lives while imparting knowledge that builds community capacity for sustainable change.
Our Vision: Excellence in support, and care of healthcare missionaries. We seek to set the standard, to which other organizations aspire, in the care and support of healthcare missionaries.
We walk along side people in their times of greatest need; demonstrating the love, mercy, and compassion our faith demands of us. Imagine your child critically injured but there is nowhere to turn for help: no hospital, no doctors, and no nurses. Imagine they were suffering from a life threatening condition such as malaria, or in need of a life-saving surgery. Imagine your only option is to watch your child die, simply because you are poor and born in a place without access to healthcare. Six million times each year mothers grieve the loss of a child under five simply because they are poor and have nowhere to turn for help.
Mission statement
With respect for human dignity, we work to build community capacity to:
Promote a worldview that nurtures and supports spiritual, and physical wholeness in families
Ensure child survival and normal growth of children
Improve health infrastructure and access to functional healthcare services
Statement of faith
As an interdenominational Christian ministry; our statement of faith is the Apostles Creed. Feel free to contact us for further details about what we believe.
