        Event Details

        Every Christian health professional has a unique opportunity to improve their patients’ physical and spiritual health, but many feel frustrated by the challenge of integrating faith and practice within time constraints and legal obligations.

        However, the medical literature increasingly recognises the important link between spirituality and health and GMC guidelines approve discussion of faith issues with patients provided that it is done appropriately and sensitively.

        Christians are called to be ‘the salt of the earth’. Saline Solution is a course designed to help Christian healthcare professionals bring Christ and his good news into their work. It has helped hundreds become more comfortable and adept at practising medicine that addresses the needs of the whole person.

        Dressed in Christ, ready for work

        Thursday 7 – Friday 8 May 2026,

        Yarnfield Park Training & Conference Centre, Staffordshire, ST15 0NL

        It’s seven o’clock, so it’s time to get changed. He pulls his lanyard over his head, unpins his name badge and stuffs them both in his rucksack as he heads home. She ties up the drawstrings of her scrub trousers and slips on her Crocs before heading onto the ward for handover. These are their end and beginning rituals, of putting off and putting on.

        The apostle Paul encouraged Christians in the early church to change their attire, too. He instructed them to doff their old self, and their former way of life, and to don their ‘…new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness’. (Ephesians 4 :24b)

        What impact would it have if we stepped into Christ’s changing room and took off old garments that weigh heavily and hinder us? Could we see a shift change in toxic workplace cultures, too, as we clothe ourselves distinctly in his love? As we gather together at NAMfest, we’ll be asking God for changeover. May he renew our minds and break through in our workplaces.

        Cost:

        £95 for full NAMfest (£75 for students)

        £45 for a Friday day ticket only; includes lunch

        Event Details

        Join CMF’s 18‑month Global Track, running from September 2026 to March 2028!

        The track is designed for medics, nurses, midwives and allied health professionals who are exploring or preparing for work in global health and mission.

        We especially welcome students in the final three years of their course, as well as graduates in the early stages of their careers, as the programme is structured to fit comfortably alongside ongoing studies, placements or work commitments.

        This will be our sixth cohort, building on years of experience delivering the programme.

        What’s Included
        • Residential & In‑Person Training: An introductory weekend residential with teaching, five Saturday training days at CMF HQ led by global health mission speakers, and a cross‑cultural training day in the UK.
        • Online Learning: Four two‑hour Wednesday evening webinars, and two assignments to help you reflect and apply your learning.
        • CMF Global Summer Mission Conference: Your place includes conference access with lectures, practical skills sessions, and workshops on healthcare in resource‑poor settings.
        • Mentoring: You’ll be paired with a mentor experienced in overseas missions for personalised support throughout the programme.
        • Vision Trip: Join one of three short‑term mission vision trips. If you can’t make these dates, we can consider your elective or another short-term mission trip instead.
        Course Fee

        £500

        Please note that this fee doesn’t include your travel, accommodation or extra days at the Global Summer Mission Conference, or the costs connected with your vision trip.
        We can provide a support letter if you’d like to invite prayer or financial support from your church, family, or friends.

        How to Apply
        Applications for the Global Track are now open, and close on Monday 30 March at 5:00 PM BST.

        To apply, email globaltrack@cmf.org.uk to request the application form.

I was a foreigner, and you did not welcome me in: the challenge of the Nationality and Borders Bill

February 7, 2022/in Blog, Medical Practice, Society Guest

Parinaz is a journalist from Iran who came to the UK seeking asylum over eight years ago. Despite the services of a caring solicitor, her claim has been refused many times. To add to her despair, she discovered a breast lump earlier this year. Imagine the additional worry you would have receiving an NHS invoice […]

We take delight in honouring each other: A response to the vaccine mandate

February 1, 2022/in Blog, Medical Practice, NHS, Nursing Bex Lawton

Yesterday we learned that the Secretary of State for Health has agreed to reverse the UK government’s policy on Covid vaccine mandates after a brief consultation on the issue. At the time of writing, by 1 April 2022, all NHS staff in England would have had to have been fully vaccinated against COVID-19 to keep […]

Who are we protecting? Anti-Covid measures and their impact on children.

January 19, 2022/in Blog, Personal Health, Society Guest

Children are a precious gift from God; they are vulnerable and need to be cared for. Jesus prioritised children in a society where they were not generally valued. Over history, Christians have campaigned for the welfare and rights of children (especially the most vulnerable), founding orphanages and schools and being instrumental in the ending of […]

Vaccinating our kids against Covid

January 18, 2022/in Blog, Medical Practice, Society Guest

COVID-19 has affected us all in different ways over the past two years. For most of us, our lives have looked completely different to how they were before 2020 and how we expected them to be. In the spring of 2020, when deaths from or with Covid were high and we were only beginning to […]

Vaccine Mandates: A defining justice issue for our professions?

January 12, 2022/in Blog, Medical Practice, Nursing, Society John Greenall

“I’ve worked for two years throughout this pandemic…with inadequate PPE…overtime…seeing many die in front of me. And now I’m going to lose my job”. This is just one story of many I have heard from colleagues who stand to lose their jobs when the government’s vaccination mandate for healthcare workers in England comes into force […]

January 10, 2022/in Blog, Humanity, Start of Life Dr Rick Thomas

At the end of November, in the High Court, the case of Toombes v Dr Philip Mitchell was heard before Rosalind Coe QC, acting judge. The claimant, 20-year-old Evie Toombes, sued her mother’s GP, Dr Mitchell, on the grounds of her own wrongful conception. Had her mother been given the appropriate advice at the time, […]

What kind of Christmas are you looking forward to? This is the second one impacted by Covid and its restrictions, anxieties, and irritations. How many more? Will it always be like this? Always Covid and never Christmas, or at least never Christmas as it used to be? In the CS Lewis book, ‘The Lion, the […]

December 10, 2021/in Blog, End of Life, Nursing Guest

A CMF member shares two stories she has included in her response to the assisted suicide consultation. Liam McArthur MSP is currently holding a consultation on whether to introduce assisted suicide to Scotland. Last week we contacted our nurse […]

Love in the time of Covid – gospel unity on an astonishingly divisive issue of our time

November 26, 2021/in Blog, Christianity, NHS Felicia Wong

Are you aware that there is a silent spiritual battle going on within our church families? I have come across many Christian brothers and sisters who are very distressed and yet feeling very alone and isolated within church families because their conscience before the Lord does not allow them to be vaccinated. This has become […]

U.S. surgeons successfully test pig kidney transplant in human patient

November 15, 2021/in Blog, Christianity, Medical Practice Guest

So ran the headline of an article in Reuters’ ‘Healthcare and Pharmaceuticals’ category late last month. It was accompanied by a video in which the surgeon who carried out the transplant curiously remarked that the significance of this operation ‘could not be understated’ (sic). Well, that may be so, but what was done could certainly […]

Who’s the boss? Vaccinating our children

September 14, 2021/in Blog, Medical Practice John Greenall

‘You do it all then – you’re the boss’, said the dad to his ten-year-old daughter, as they struggled to don her swimming hat. Yesterday marked week four of swimming lessons for one of my children; it was also the day the UK government recommended a single-dose COVID vaccine for 12-15-years-olds in England. The science […]

Vaccine passports – a 21st-century ‘apartheid’?

September 10, 2021/in Blog, Society Felicia Wong

Vaccine passports are proof of COVID-19 vaccination status as a condition of participation in certain activities, including employment, education, travel and social engagement. In July, Nadhim Zahawi, the Minister for Covid Vaccine Deployment, stated that by the end of September, the UK Government plans ‘to make full vaccination a condition of entry to nightclubs and […]
