What is MMI?

I would like to take a moment to share about the organization I will be working with in Peru. It is called Medical Ministry International or MMI. Below is there purpose statement.

Medical Ministry International is an opportunity to serve Jesus Christ by providing spiritual and physical health care in this world of need.

Our vision is to care annually for 100 million of the world's needy by the year 2050.

MMI is committed to meet the need for medical care among the world's poor with lasting solutions through excellence in medicine, patient care, and health education. We do this by:

- Mobilizing volunteers on one and two week medical projects.
- Establishing and equipping permanent medical centers.

We work alongside national doctors and health care professionals from the countries we go to, joining the efforts of the local church where possible. This healing ministry strengthens village churches and offers opportunities for North American churches to strengthen their outreach programs.

MMI is an interdenominational medical ministry. Our statement of faith is the Apostle's Creed. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with international staff and offices in Texas and Ontario.

"I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you." (John 13:15)
