ss CMF news - summer 2005,  Junior doctors

Junior doctors

Looking back over the past year it is great to see how much God is doing through CMF with junior doctors at local, national and international levels. The junior years can be tough, with many job, personal and geographical changes, but CMF is in a great position to encourage, support and challenge us to keep going as Christians in all areas of our life, including our medical work.

We’ve said goodbye to a number of committee members over the past year including James Tomlinson, Yvonne Cartwright and Liz Croton, and we’re grateful for all the time and effort they have given to CMF. It’s been great to welcome new members though: Caroline Bunting, Eley Chiu, Matt Kehoe and Genie Lee.

Please thank God for all he has done, and pray that he will continue to give us wisdom as a committee as we seek to take the work forward. We’re particularly keen to make sure we’re catering for all junior doctors, from pre-reg house officers to final year SpR’s.

Juniors continue to be involved in CMF summer teams to a range of countries and are working closely with the HealthServe Committee to see how juniors who are keen to work overseas in a mission context can best get training and experience in this country before they go.

The ICMDA World Conference 2006 is in Sydney. We’re hoping to get a group of UK juniors to go, both to encourage and to be encouraged by juniors from across the world. We also plan to use money from our Juniors’ Scholarship Fund to enable those from non-Western countries to attend.

Our next weekend juniors’ conference ‘Beyond the Bleep’ will be at Hothorpe Hall, Leics, with Jim Paul giving the main talks based on Ecclesiastes. Seminars are planned on topics including ‘Dealing with difficult colleagues and bullying’ and ‘Dating as Christians?’

Coming up in the autumn and next spring we are planning a repeat day conference on how to share Christ in every day conversation, a day conference for Christians in surgery and a day to help PLAB doctors in their quest to gain employment in the UK. Watch this space.
