ORGANIZATIONS IN THE VILLAGE

CCHF is a Community more than it is an organization. That is what we hope to capture in The Village at this Conference. The Village will be open throughout the conference as a gathering place, a place of fellowship and connection and prayer. It is where relationships can form, and where you can learn about others who are part of the CCHF community. Relax with a cup of coffee and watch the rolling virtual display featuring every Christian clinic in the country. Get a feel for how God is using you in a larger strategy to extend the love of Christ through healthcare to those who are marginalized.

VISIONWe envision a movement of God’s people who choose daily to promote healing in marginalized communities in the name of Jesus.

MISSIONThe mission of CCHF is to educate, encourage and engage Christians to live out the gospel through healthcare among the poor.

VALUES• Supremacy of Christ: Honoring the Lordship of Christ and submitting ourselves to his authority

and person.

• Prophetic Voice: Challenging God’s people to choose to go against the status quo; to be incarnational, sacrificial, and to enter into the suffering of the poor.

• Wholistic Care: Encouraging excellent, compassionate health care, ministering to spiritual, physical, and emotional needs of people and their communities.

• Reconciliation: Restoring right relationships to God, to one another, and to all of creation, addressing barriers that commonly divide, including race, social status, and economic oppression.

• Justice: Working toward God’s kingdom, setting all things right for the oppressed, the forgotten, and particularly the marginalized in our health care system.

• Partnership: Listening to and working alongside churches, patients, our communities, and one another.

“INSPIRED BY A VISION, FOCUSED ON A MISSION, ROOTED IN KINGDOM VALUES”

THE ROLE OF CCHFThere is a growing movement of Christians who are committed to bring healing to marginalized communities in Jesus’ name. CCHF is the joint effort of those in the movement to help others find their place in our common cause, persevere in our mutual calling, and grow in our understanding of what it means to be ambassadors of Christ in healthcare and in communities of need. Simply put, the role of CCHF is to support and grow this movement. We do this through..

1. RELATIONAL NETWORKThe most powerful thing about CCHF is the actual community. It is real and relational. We share our experiences and insights and help one another. We help members of this movement find one another and connect in meaningful ways that honors Christ and advances His cause.

2. NATIONAL AND REGIONAL EVENTSThe most visible of these is the CCHF conference - a 3-day event with inspiring speakers, informative workshops, and opportunities to network. Christian leaders and pioneers are available to newcomers to both share and to listen to the new voices in this community.

3. STUDENTS AND RESIDENTSThrough collaborative relationships with groups like CMDA, MCO and InterVarsity, CCHF practitioners speak to campus groups at over 100 campuses every year. We provide clinical experiences through preceptor and internship programs in Christian clinics. And we help residents find placements at clinics where they can integrate faith with clinical care for the medically underserved.

4. PUBLICATIONSHealth & Development (H&D) is a non-commercial periodical where Christian professionals working with the medically underserved share their stories and explore the unique challenges encountered in providing holistic, Christ-driven care in domestic cross-cultural settings.

Upholding the Vision, 3rd Edition

5. WWW.CCHF.ORGThe CCHF website is a “toolshed” where participants in the movement share resources to help you grow in conviction and ability to fulfill your calling in healthcare. It is constantly growing as the community adds content, and the dialogue progresses as we grapple with what it means to live out the gospel through healthcare among the poor.

“I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by my Father in heaven. For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them.” (Matt 18.19-20)

Prayer is a tangible admission that we are dependent on God. It is perhaps the greatest way to grow in our intimacy with Him through Christ, and with-out doubt, the most important thing we do at this conference.

Take advantage of our time together to pray with one another, pay at-tention to God’s presence and His leading, and make space for prayer throughout the conference.

Here are some prayer opportunities: • Corporate Prayer during the plenary sessions. These will be led by

people on stage and will give us time to pray for one another.

• Prayer Team. After plenary sessions and throughout the conference members of the “Prayer Team” are available to pray for and with you. These are select, trusted, balanced Christians who will be wearing Prayer Team t-shirts. They have already been praying for you, and are ready to stand with you as you respond to God’s word and the Spirit’s conviction.

• Pray with others. Please pray with one another! Pray with those you already know and those you are meeting for the first time. We are all discovering what it means to live out the gospel as a community, and it is almost never inappropriate for us to pray for one another.

We look forward to hearing how God has met you at the conference, how he used you in the lives of others, and how He used others to speak to you.

A CULTURE OF PRAYER “…the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express… the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with God’s will.”

“Christ Jesus, who died--more than that, who was raised to life--is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us.” (Rom 8:26-27,34)

“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.” (Matt 7:7)

THURSDAY May 12th / 1:00-2:50PM & 3:10-5:00pmINTENSIVES

Chronic pain is often treated in short visits with opioids. Continued pain and at times addiction are the result. What can Christian physicians offer a patient who is in chronic pain? Suppose the patient is already on opioids and in trouble with them. In this multi-session Intensive, two family physicians and one addiction specialist will help attendees explore the options available in treating both chronic pain and addiction. The concept of addiction to pain will also be presented. Half the time will be in presentations and half in case presentations and discussion. The emphasis will be on effective communication, effective interventions, and spiritual interventions.

In Integrated Behavioral Couples Therapy (IBCT), couples are able to see conflict from the other’s perspective and move away from anger, hurt and blame, to develop a deeper understanding of their partner’s vulnerabilities and build trust and intimacy. This session helps attendees to look at their own relationships and understand their partner with loving acceptance and strengthen the Biblical goals of marriage. In addition to their own experiences they will be able to integrate these principals into their own work with others.

Providing health care is a great door-opener for spiritual conversations with our patients. However, significant obstacles exist. First, many believe that Science and Faith are mutually incompatible. Secondly, many view that which can be discerned empirically as certain and reliable, while that which can only be known by faith as subjective and untrustworthy. In this Intensive, Part one will deal with the nature of truth, and with Science and Faith, so that Christians will be more aware of the preciousness of the Christian faith in serving as the foundation for all we do in life, including the delivery of health care. Part two will delve into how our faith is to influence the care we offer to our patients, and how we can share the message of salvation in Christ with our patients with confidence and humility, in a respectful and loving fashion.

CCHFx is a series of short, fast-paced presentations by CCHF practitioners from across the country. These 10-15 minute talks focus on one creative, take-away concept that has helped the presenter or their organization be more faithful to the common mission of doing Christ’s work Christ’s way, as they live out the gospel through healthcare among the poor. Topics include practical tools, personal development, and missional strategies, with a little art and entertainment thrown in. Administrators, providers, support staff, and allied health professionals will all come away thinking more creatively and stirred in faith about our work.

We are offering shuttles to two best practice CCHF clinics in Oklahoma City – Ministries of Jesus Clinic and Crossings Health Clinic. There will also be a 3-exam room mobile clinic from Good Samaritan of Tulsa for tour at the conference site. Full information available at the resource table.

can to make life better for others.” Dr. Robert Paeglow

“The Spirit you received does not make you slaves, so that you live in fear again;rather, the Spirit you received brought about your adoption to sonship. And by him we cry, “Abba, Father.” - Romans 8:15

JOHN PERKINS BOB PAEGLOW BOB MASON ROBERT RECORD SUEIHN LEE

Paradigms of community, healthcare, and how the gospel fits in our nation are changing rapidly. God has anointed a new generation to take leadership. Are you willing to rise to take a place of leadership in your community, in the church, in the medical community, or even in the nation? For over 50 years John Perkins has embodied the principles that define CCHF, Christian reconciliation and justice. He will impart vision and faith to those who want to lead a movement to bring healing to marginalized communities in the name of Jesus.

The author of Philippians 3:10 writes that he wants to know the power of Christ’s resurrection, and – equally emphasized - the “fellowship of His sufferings”. Understanding calling and what to expect prepares us to be finishers, and not just starters. Dr. Bob will share from his own story and will discuss practical applications to see your work in the context of your calling. This session will inspire those attending to see healthcare and management more as worship than as work, and medicine as vocation and calling instead of a career choice.

Most Christian health professionals want to integrate their faith in every area of life, including their medical practice. If you are apprehensive about integrating faith with medicine, are unsure if doing so is ethical, or are not sure how to talk to people about spiritual issues, this workshop will help. This working session explores the ethical basis for spiritual care and will provide you with professional, timely, and practical methods to care for the whole person in clinical settings.

Our task is more than the clinical work in front of us. If we are going to grow and spread healing and good news to more patients and communities, we must connect students, residents, and other leaders to the calling of God on their life. We don’t tell students what God wants them to do; but if we ask the right questions, we can help them come to their own convictions about God’s path for their lives. Come learn practical questions and how to use them to lead others through a process of discovery that is life-giving.

Motivational interviewing helps a client change by harnessing their own motivation and resolving ambivalence. A powerful source of motivation for change is spiritual growth, an area that can be explored in conjunction with medical and behavioral health care in a way that fosters collaboration. Through reflective listening, summarizing, and open-ended questions, a clinician can effectively explore a client’s belief system, which can then be used to highlight discrepancies and affirm strengths as clients work toward their goals.

Health Care Need in the Community

ELIZABETH BRILL JEFF AMSTUTZ, LANCE LUTTRELL ALYSSA NANCE DAVID MCVAY, TYLER

WHITAKER, & PANEL JOHN CROUCH

To live out the gospel through healthcare among the poor, we must continually relearn the gospel for ourselves. We must see ourselves as God’s priesthood, His ransomed children, and Ambassadors of His Kingdom—rather than as providers, support staff or administrators. This helps us avoid burnout, and allows Christ to shine more brightly through the work we do. The presenter has spent her career in non-profit work, and will share her journey of developing spiritual disciplines.

Join healthcare and dental professionals in our journey to embrace God’s leading to address the disparate dental needs of our communities while preparing missionaries to go to unreached peoples across the globe. We will walk through the tensions of domestic and international dental strategies and present a model to strengthen local dental services and training highly qualified dental professionals for leadership. We will address practical considerations and tangible steps to expand dental ministries and call dentists into his service.

When it comes to buying in to the mission of the organization, often times the staff with the most patient interaction is the hardest to reach. In this workshop we will talk through ways to fully engage your front line and support staff in the mission of the organization, activate and direct their spiritual gifts and creativity to help you be mission-true, and develop strategies that assist in creating a Christ-honoring culture of faith throughout your entire organization.

It is vital that you be intentional about maximizing your medical training experiences for the advancement of God’s kingdom. A panel of advanced nursing and med students, residents and recent graduates share about paths they have taken to remain faithful to their calling to serve Christ domestically and abroad, how they have maintained their passion for Jesus in secular environments and applied the gospel to performance and patient interactions, how they furthered the cause of Christ through strategic friendships and relationships, and more.

Good Samaritan Health Services has provided quality health care to the underserved in Tulsa since 1999. The GSHS program serves as a national model for mobile health excellence. Partnering with 30+ churches and utilizing mobile medical vans, GSHS currently holds over 50 clinics/month, including monthly well women’s clinics and initiating a retinal screening project, particularly for diabetics in the underserved population. This model will be shared, and the session will include a tour of one of the GSHS mobile units.

GROWTH USING MOTIVATIONAL INTERVIEWING

JOHN PERKINS BOB PAEGLOW BOB MASON ROBERT RECORD SUEIHN LEE

Paradigms of community, healthcare, and how the gospel fits in our nation are changing rapidly. God has anointed a new generation to take leadership. Are you willing to rise to take a place of leadership in your community, in the church, in the medical community, or even in the nation? For over 50 years John Perkins has embodied the principles that define CCHF, Christian reconciliation and justice. He will impart vision and faith to those who want to lead a movement to bring healing to marginalized communities in the name of Jesus.

The author of Philippians 3:10 writes that he wants to know the power of Christ’s resurrection, and – equally emphasized - the “fellowship of His sufferings”. Understanding calling and what to expect prepares us to be finishers, and not just starters. Dr. Bob will share from his own story and will discuss practical applications to see your work in the context of your calling. This session will inspire those attending to see healthcare and management more as worship than as work, and medicine as vocation and calling instead of a career choice.

Most Christian health professionals want to integrate their faith in every area of life, including their medical practice. If you are apprehensive about integrating faith with medicine, are unsure if doing so is ethical, or are not sure how to talk to people about spiritual issues, this workshop will help. This working session explores the ethical basis for spiritual care and will provide you with professional, timely, and practical methods to care for the whole person in clinical settings.

Our task is more than the clinical work in front of us. If we are going to grow and spread healing and good news to more patients and communities, we must connect students, residents, and other leaders to the calling of God on their life. We don’t tell students what God wants them to do; but if we ask the right questions, we can help them come to their own convictions about God’s path for their lives. Come learn practical questions and how to use them to lead others through a process of discovery that is life-giving.

Motivational interviewing helps a client change by harnessing their own motivation and resolving ambivalence. A powerful source of motivation for change is spiritual growth, an area that can be explored in conjunction with medical and behavioral health care in a way that fosters collaboration. Through reflective listening, summarizing, and open-ended questions, a clinician can effectively explore a client’s belief system, which can then be used to highlight discrepancies and affirm strengths as clients work toward their goals.

COACHING CONVERSATIONAL INTELLIGENCE: The Fine Art of Listening …And Being Heard

MARY DIANA DREGER STAN ROWLAND RUSS AYERS KEN JONES

Does working in a Christian clinic mean that we can expect unfailing understanding among our co-workers? Or should we as Christians expect interpersonal challenges? If we are to “glory in the Cross,” how does that play out when we are working with fellow Christians in a common mission? Living in a religious community with over 150 other women provides valuable lessons for practicing as a board-certified internist in a clinic for the underserved. With thoughtfulness, prayer, and humor, Sister Mary Diana will offer some real world experiences and possible approaches -- from life in a Christian community at home and in the workplace.

Think of this session as Community Health Outreach 101 facilitated by the author of CHE, which is a system used in medical missions around the world. This session will look at how community health training and implementation can be done in a domestic clinic’s catchment area. The ACA is beginning to reimburse for these services, making it easier for community health centers to fulfill health works training from their clinic. We will hear from several clinics that are using this approach to reach people where they live.

It is easy to think that living missionally is something you will get to when you complete your training - when you have more time and control over your life and work. The reality is that life after training only becomes busier with more and different commitments. How can you start a pattern of living on “mission” now while you are still in training. We will explore how you can make the most of the opportunities you have today to prepare for tomorrow.

Oy, have we got troubles with Development!

In this moderated discussion, participants will have opportunities to share their biggest challenges in funding their organizations, and then have a room full of peers and experts share potential solutions. Come let us analyze your problem, or be one of the peers/experts sharing observations, ideas, encouragements, or corrections with others who need your counsel. This is the ultimate interactive experience – the Body of Christ at work as we strive to be more effective in development.

(Don’t be too disappointed, but there is no actual couch.)

Healthcare professionals all know that one of the most important elements for improving job satisfaction, team morale, and individual performance is effective communication that builds trust and produces measurable results. In this workshop, we’ll look at the specifics of how to be more skilled at communicating — how to have ‘intelligent conversations’ — with colleagues, team members, or “challenging” individuals within a group that will produce change, understanding, cooperation, and growth in your work, or on your healthcare team.

DEMENTIA: Assessment and Diagnosis in Primary Care

WHEN HELPING HELPS

BEING SALT & LIGHT IN A

SECULAR WORLD

WHY IS IT CALLED A BOARD “RETREAT” WHEN

IT IS MEANT TO MOVE US FORWARD?

NATHAN COOK LAURA SHULTZ JEFF TRASK GARY CLOUD, RON YEE BETH BROWN

Clinics that serve the poor often have difficulty recruiting physicians. Those that are successful realize that envisioning and training students is key to their future and the future of this movement. Is our movement growing or waning? Do we embody the values we hope to encourage in others? Are we raising a new generation of disciples and leaders? Participants in this session will learn to embody Kingdom values that bring justice to healthcare, embracing the challenges, risks and stigmatization that often accompany God’s kingdom agenda.

Dementia is often undetected until the disease has significantly progressed. Primary Care and Behavioral Health providers working in a primary care setting are uniquely situated to encounter individuals with early warning signs, as well as loved ones who may experience caregiver stress. Detecting early symptoms of dementia can lead to earlier intervention and decreased rate of cognitive decline. Various etiologies of dementia will be discussed and participants will be equipped with cognitive screening tools to utilize in clinical practice.

Some Christian organizations have taken the positive intent of books such as When Helping Hurts and Toxic Charity beyond their authors’ intentions. Decisions to force the disenfranchised into a worldview based on concepts such as “God helps those that help themselves”, stand in sharp contrast to Jesus & unconditional love. There is space between enabling and giving a gift out of love.

This workshop discusses how to ensure one takes a biblical approach to mercy and justice to reconcile people instead of driving them further apart.

Ron and Gary share how God has placed them in various places needing ‘Salt & Light.’ They are prayer partners who are committed to the under-served, and see God’s hand in their respective career paths. Ron has served as an FQHC physician, medical director and executive director – and is currently the CMO of the National Association of Community Health Centers. Gary worked for many years in the Community Health Center world, and has been involved in establishing health professions colleges committed to preparing healers for the under-served.

When resources are tight and boards suffer from disengagement, organizations struggle with lackluster outcomes from prior retreats and whether investing in a Board retreat is really worth it. This session will provide an in-depth look at the philosophy behind Board retreats. We will look at the value of and agendas for the three most common formats: Board Training Retreats, Organizational Planning Retreats, and Crisis Retreats. Frequency, cost, locations and the “why” and “who” of a contracted facilitator will be discussed.

STRATEGIC DISCERNMENT

RICK DONLON STEVE NOBLETT MATT RAFALSKI DAVID HART

Beginning with Jesus and the apostles, and extending throughout church history, those who have advanced the Kingdom of God faced pitched opposition from the world and its demonic powers.Jesus repeatedly warned his disciples that they would be misunderstood, persecuted, and betrayed--even by family and friends. No student, he reminded us, is above his Teacher. Those who strive to bring Jesus’ authority and biblical justice to an unjust healthcare system must be prepared to suffer-- knowing that “if we endure, we will also reign with him”.

Our vision is to see a movement of God’s people who choose daily to promote healing in marginalized communities in the name of Jesus. This session gives you an opportunity to learn about CCHF from its director and a few “CCHF stakeholders”. Pelt us with questions that have been burning in your brain. Or just come to find out what you can do as part of a nationwide community to help grow and sustain the growing movement of Christ-honoring, people-loving, gospel-driven healthcare professionals across our nation.

This will be a high level view / interactive session that will address practical steps about developing a God honoring clinical quality program that does a good job of reflecting the performance of the systems and people in your health center. We will review a philosophy of Clinical Quality, what items you need to measure, techniques used to measure them, and how to use your data effectively to track and improve performance in your clinic.

Your model is not your mission. Your model needs to facilitate your mission! What will it be: fee-for-service, direct pay, subscription, FQHC, hybrid or free/charitable clinic model? In this moderated discussion, table groups will discuss with experts and people who have been through the transitions why they choose their model, the issues they encountered, and how that model is impacting their ability to live out the gospel through healthcare among the poor. Ask questions and share experiences you wish someone had warned you about along the way.

Faith-driven leaders are faced with choices that seem to pit what God wants against what makes sense from a purely business perspective. God often asks us to reach for what is humanly impossible, and to do what doesn’t always make sense or is even offensive. This seminar explores three factors to keep the power of the gospel at the center of our leadership, and provides strategies for factoring them into the daily decisions that drive gospel-based organizations. Decision-Makers as well as future leaders are strongly encouraged to attend.

IT’S FEMALE BUSINESS: Finding Balance in Lives of Service & Purpose

OPIOID MISUSE AND ADDICTION:

Helping our Patients with Hope and Kindness, Not Judgement

A STRENGTH BASED APPROACH TO

BRINGING HEALING AND RESTORATION TO OFFENDERS

THAT FUEL HUMAN TRAFFICKING


FUNDRAISING TUNE UP

MODERATOR: SARAH DICKERT WITH PANEL NORM WETTERAU LORI BASEY,

SANDRA ORCHARD BILL MOREHOUSE GEORGE VALVERDE

Women with the courage to serve in economically challenged arenas face challenges— cultural issues, professional barriers, marriage or singleness, juggling family life, and more. Sarah Dickert moderates a panel of women who will speak honestly about their joys and struggles:

- Anna Leung, PsyD, Clinical Psychologist, Koinonia Primary Care

- Daisey Dowell, MD, pediatrician, Lawndale Christian Health Center - Ester Kim, MD - chief resident, Resurrection Health Family Medicine Residency

- Laura Lee Cooper, MSN, RN, CNL – Nurse Manager, Christ Community Health Augusta

Opioid misuse and addiction are both common and complex problems and too often lead to death among the populations we serve. Physicians are often uncomfortable dealing with these problems. Some continue to prescribe opioids even if the patient is addicted. Others abruptly stop them, and the patient turns to heroin. Medical providers often do not know how to talk with patients in a helpful manner and many do not use pharmacotherapy, which have high success rates.

This session will provide information and teach effective communication multi-dimensional skills so providers can be truly helpful.

After years of working with human trafficking victims and victims of abuse, Lori Basey and No Boundaries International has come to value the implementation of using a strength based approach to provide therapeutic healing and restoration to those “from hard places”. The purpose of this session is to provide an overview of the Bio-Psycho-Social-Spiritual approach and to identify intervention strategies to bring healing and restoration to victims of human trafficking.

As believers in Christ and His Kingdom, we are all motivated to find ways to share the hope that is within us with patients and coworkers in the clinical settings where we work. How do we demonstrate and incorporate the powerful instrument of intercession in our patient encounters? How do we communicate the relevant aspects of the “Good News” to patients in the clinical setting. This workshop will address the mindset needed to weave relevant truths of our living faith into contemporary practice in seamless, mutually edifying, and fruitful ways.

All good engines eventually need a tune up, and with proper maintenance can stay in top shape for a long time. In this session we’ll go “under the hood” of your fundraising programs and look at areas where you may be in need of a tune up, learn key principles for regular maintenance - and even find out if there are areas in which you may need a complete overhaul. With all the components working together, your annual campaign can run as efficiently as an engine that’s in top shape. You don’t have to sputter along trying to raise funds.

There is great joy when we commit to work for the Lord – we can almost see the ways God will use us in ministry. But God often chooses to work through our weakness rather than our strengths. In ministry we are faced with our real weaknesses and experience suffering in unexpected. But “God’s light shines out of darkness…” He uses events and difficulties to show Himself with overflowing grace. Looking at 2 Cor. 4, we will learn from Paul, who was confronted with his own weaknesses – and found God’s grace to bring overflowing thanksgiving to the glory of God.

No more appropriate saying has described the intensity of medical school and residency other than “drinking from a fire hose”. Whether it’s medical, dental, pharmacy, NP, PA, PT/OT, etc; each program comes with it’s own intensity and pressure. How do we as Christ’s disciples live in a way where we not only avoid letting the fire hose drown us but we use this time to thrive spiritually? Let’s figure it out together, swimmies optional.

Every clinic want to improve the patient visit and their team’s efficiency. As many clinics move toward a hybrid other funding models, productivity becomes even more important. Goals include improved patient experience, whole person care, close relationships, timely visits, meaningful documentation, and provider/staff satisfaction. New Heights Clinic has developed a Team Approach with RNs doing most of Hx and data collection. The provider focuses on the visit to review the Hx,

The program will review the steps involved in the process, the resources required to assure success and the benchmarks to be met to assure a successful journey. The ECHO support will be delineated and a description of its application to create a quality-based clinic, this increasing access to healthcare in your community. The model, the materials, and the support are available at no cost to accepted candidates.

As assistants, nurses, and administrators we are called to service. As we walk out our calling to serve our patients and providers, we need to hear the call to join Jesus in his humble serving ministry again. We will some practical tools to be a blessing to our colleagues in clinical and discuss tangible ways that each member of the team can engage patients in our common spiritual mission. WARNING: Those unwilling to serve others need not attend.

Students who do clinical rotations with us need more than just medical training. Because caring for the underserved offers a unique context for living out the gospel, our challenge must be to faithfully precept students in a manner that is Kingdom-centered and resists being watered down by fatigue and apathy. Discipleship should be a refining and energizing process for all of us. This session examines objectives and lessons based on Siloam Family Health Center’s Primary Care Preceptorship program.

Grief and loss are particularly common in OB/GYN patients, and can be related to a number of presenting problems from miscarriage to fetal abnormality. This session uses case studies and role play to help increase practitioners’ knowledge, comfort and competency in psychosocial assessment and intervention with grief and loss from an interdisciplinary, team-based approach. We will discuss cultural considerations and challenge the audience to think holistically and comprehensively about the patients they encounter with grief and loss in OB/GYN.

Addressing spiritual health in our patients is far more than simply sharing the gospel. How do we as practitioners guide our patients on the path to healing in ever-increasing isolated and busy world? This workshop will take a hard look at the evidence surrounding spirituality and it’s impact on health. We will analyze some ancient spiritual disciplines including lectio divina, prayer of examen, fasting, solitude, and community. And we will provide some tools to help you and your patients engage in these practices.

In the midst of violence, chaos, and brokenness there is hope. Jesus has called us to a ministry of love. Through His presence, lives can be rescued and transformed. An interaction in the “hood” while preparing to unload the moving truck is not only needed, but expected. Sharing the gospel through words and small actions, unleashes the power of Christ in ways that are way beyond your expectations. This session will connect those that feel unequipped, inadequate, or just plain afraid, to the power of the Holy Spirit to share the gospel.

Up to 75% of prescription medications are not taken as directed, resulting in additional office visits, ER visits, hospitalizations, and nursing home admissions. And the cost to the system of this non-compliance epidemic is $100-289 billion dollars every year. This session will address the implementation of and the outcomes of pharmacist run medication therapy management, targeted health education and “creative compliance tools” in a primary care setting with a goal of patient wellbeing and closing the loop in medication management.

You’ve answered the call to serve God by serving the poor, and are doing your best to fight the good fight - to “endure as a good soldier”. But you’ve been wounded in the battle, and face your own challenges. How can you continue to meet the demands of serving those who have such overwhelming needs when you are struggling to survive yourself? In this session we will explore biblically based strategies to build resiliency, and find the strength we need in order to serve well in the midst of personally challenging times.

How do two CCHF conferences, an inner city church and an organization driven to stop human trafficking combine with a free medical clinic to fulfill the purposes of Christ in an inner city neighborhood? God uses unlikely partnerships and events to accomplish His will in our lives. Knowing when faith trumps strategic plans and budgets, and being alert when God chooses to break into our routine are part of the journey of faith. Using our journey, we will examine principles around the tapestry of God’s vision that is being woven into our lives.

1 in 68 children is diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Primary care has an important role in the early identification of ASD, as well as ongoing care for the children affected. However, studies show that the average PCP’s abilities related to treatment of ASD have led to unnecessary delays in diagnosis and patient dissatisfaction. Dr. Brasted will describe an integrated, multidisciplinary approach to care that reduces barriers to early diagnosis and establishes a primary care medical home for children with ASD.

Oye, our quality issues are keeping me up at night!

If our goal is to provide the kind of care that we would want for our spouses and children, how do we address QI challenges when a) resources are so limited, b) patients are so non-compliant and unreliable, and c) we have volunteers and new providers who bring a style of care that is inconsistent with what we are trying to do in our clinic. In this moderated discussion, participants share their biggest challenges in organizational and clinical quality, and then have peers share potential solutions.

Many of the clinics in CCHF that operate as Charitable Clinics have been blessed benefactors of a growing, vibrant volunteer force. Elaine Richards, Director of Volunteer Services, shares how purposeful & deliberate planning to develop disciples while ministering to the under served has helped Crossings Community Clinic build a healthy and reliable corps of volunteers. This session will provide step-by-step instructions and useful hints for creating a dynamic volunteer force, which will boost your clinic’s capacity to serve those in need.

Biblical hospitality is about welcoming the whole person, allowing them to feel safe and to be themselves. How do health professionals engage international refugees so that they experience hospitality? What cultural cues can we follow to ensure that they feel understood, comfortable enough to communicate clearly to lead to the best possible outcomes? Come hear three members of the OKC refugee community who will be interviewed about their experiences and perspectives of healthcare since coming to the United States.

Patients are often treated without their provider understanding the context of their condition or illness. Drawing upon lessons learned from effective health care projects among poor and marginalized communities globally, community health initiatives identify social determinants of health that lie “upstream” from traditional acute care medicine. Learn why community health programs are essential in ministries of reconciliation and health, what to look for in community partners, and how to align the work with the traditional health system.

How can you bring patients into contact with Jesus when you are busy with patient care? There are ways to help people connect to the Great Physician that don’t take a lot of time. Respecting people’s faith background, meeting them where they are in their spiritual journey, and always being ready to give an answer put you in the perfect spot to be THE PHYSICIAN’S assistant! This session will help all staff think through what it takes to be ready, and to recognize when your patient is ready to address their own relationship with God.

This is a story about 4 medical students from across the country who demonstrated risk-taking faith to begin training in the most unlikely of residency programs. Come hear as these students (now graduates) share how God met them as they moved into the inner city, weathered constant trials and uncertainties, and pioneered fruitful works and relationships during the most challenging 3 years of their lives. Their compelling story will challenge all those in training to trust and obey the Lord as they plan for a life of missional medicine among the poor.

Growth is a spiritual challenge. Successful health centers tend to grow. They start with one site and few employees and great clarity of mission. Over time things change – more sites, more employees, more funding streams, and perhaps even an FQHC status. Growth brings in new people, new perspectives, and new challenges to the hope of mission clarity in service to Jesus. What are the challenges? What are some strategies? This workshop will describe Lawndale Christian Health Center’s experience with growth and faith over its 32-year history.

Formative educational experiences in Christian healthcare settings are profound motivators towards careers in this field. Ideally, such experiences include didactic acquisition of the core knowledge and skills, supervised practicum experience in their application in the context of day-to-day clinical care, and interaction with role models who exemplify healthcare excellence and genuine faith melded into their careers. This session shares resources and experiences of a collaborative program between Saint Anthony’s Fam Med Residency and INMED.

You’ve answered the call to serve God by serving the poor, and are doing your best to fight the good fight - to “endure as a good soldier”. But you’ve been wounded in the battle, and face your own challenges.

SPECIAL THANKS TO CHRIST COMMUNITY CHURCHChrist Community Church, Memphis, TN is a network of house-churches made up of people who live in strategic communities of need in Memphis, Tennessee. CCC has a strong missional focus, both in the communities they love and in countries around the globe where people live who have never heard the gospel of Jesus Christ.

In Memphis, CCC partners with other churches and organizations committed to authentic, sacrificial service as both a demonstration of the gospel and as a bridge for communicating the gospel. They strive to honor as holy the work of those who are called to teach, provide healthcare, serve in business or construction or raise families in service to Christ.

With no paid staff and no facilities, CCC is able to focus their resources towards missions, community development and direct aid to the poor. Christ Community Church was a major sponsor of this year’s conference, and enabled dozens of students to attend by providing scholarships.

Special thanks to Christ Community Church for its financial and prayer support to the CCHF community and cause.

The list of clinics in this directory is only a partial list of the Christian clinics that make up the CCHF community. Over 300 Christian clinics serve under-resourced communities in the U.S. Hundreds of other ministries address health issues through screening, coaching and limited services. And thousands of other Christians are courageously living out the gospel while working in non-faith-based clinics.
