The goal of the Global Health Training Program of the Peeke School of Christian Mission at King College is to equip Christian health and development professionals to practice medicine, community health, and community development from a global Christian perspective.

Co-Sponsors

Elim Bible Institute has been preparing students for end time ministry for 4 generations. Its new 2-year program in Missions and International Community Health trains students to minister spiritually and physically across cultural lines as Health Missionaries in developing countries.

Roberts Wesleyan College is a community of learners committed to historic Christianity, that seeks to prepare thoughtful, spiritually mature, service-oriented people who will help transform society. The core values of the School of Nursing include the assumption that individuals are wholistic, unique, integrated beings created by God with spiritual, physical, psychological, and socio-cultural elements. 

Medical Center Christian Fellowship, along with its community counterpart the Greater Rochester Medical Community Christian Fellowship, is an association of Christian health professionals, primarily medical students and physicians, who gather periodically for fellowship, teaching, and prayer.
His Branches is a cross-denominational ministry with the call to “bring hope, healing and restoration to a broken and divided world” by teaming whole person medical care with compatible social and economic ministries in reaching out to serve communities in need.
