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.

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.

Come and join us for 4 nights in Criccieth, where the mountains meet the sea, to consider the needs in the world today, learn more about what the Bible teaches about mission and see what God is doing.

We’ll think about what it means to make disciples and how to demonstrate God’s love in practical action. There will be the opportunity to work through practical questions, learn from each other and think through how we could be involved now and in the future. There will be time for Bible study, prayer, praise, learning in groups, wild swimming, walks and personal reflection.

Who is it for?
Christian students and health care professionals and their spouses/partners wanting to learn more about mission and considering how they may get involved in the future.
