Dr. Armah Toko Wilson, a third-year general surgery resident from Bongolo Hospital in Gabon, says he is a living testimony to how God is working through the National Scholars program. He tells us he has incredible passion for medicine because of the life-transforming changes he and his family have experienced through being mentored and cared for by the faculty and administration. He says these past three years have strengthened their faith. 

“The support we’re receiving from [MedSend] for my training is enormous, immeasurable, and impactful. I am truly grateful. In addition, your prayers for us are being answered daily. At Bongolo Hospital, we see souls being won to Christ, physical, spiritual and emotional problems are resolved, and lives are transformed for the good. Our faith in Christ is growing. And our surgical, academic and technical skills are on the right trajectory. Finally, my family says thank you so much for your support of my surgery training program. We will forever remain grateful,” Dr. Wilson shares.

Flourishing by Design: Imagining Medical Missions for 2040

Our predecessors faithfully built institutions that have served for generations. Our challenge is different. We have inherited those institutions into a world they could scarcely have imagined. Population growth, urbanization, changing disease patterns, financial pressures, conflict, climate shocks, and technological change are reshaping healthcare across low- and middle-income countries.

Drawing on new data about the Christian health ecosystem, strategic consultations with global and African Christian health leaders, and field experience across Africa and Asia, this session explores what it will take for Christian health ministries to flourish by 2040.

Together we’ll imagine what it will take for Christian health ministries to flourish by 2040, strengthening resilient institutions, cultivating exceptional local leadership, and mobilizing a broader range of Christian expertise from medicine and nursing to governance, education, engineering, finance, data science, and technology.

How can Christian health ministries become indispensable partners in building resilient health systems that reflect the compassion and hope of Christ? The legacy of the next generation of medical missions will be measured not only by the number of missionaries sent, but by the resilience, flourishing, and Christ-centered witness of systems they strengthen.
