We're a network of doctors & medical students throughout New Zealand with a passion for serving Christ through our work in medicine.
CMFnz exists to nurture and develop communities of Christian medical professionals and medical students who are encouraging each other, praying together and growing in Christian faith and expression through the support of regional fellowship groups. We offer Saline Process Training to healthcare professionals, training them to be effective witnesses to Christ in their workplaces, and run an annual Reflect Conference. We seek to be an effective national Christian voice on the medical and ethical issues our members are facing, and support the work of Christian doctors both locally and overseas.
The support of each person in the CMFnz community - financially, in prayer, in volunteering your time, in membership - enables us to continue to input into new generations of medical students and medical professionals, offer life-changing training through Saline Process and Reflect Conferences, and to be an effective national Christian voice on the medical and ethical issues facing New Zealand.
End of Life Care & the
End of Life Choice Act Referendum
CMFnz firmly believes in the importance of quality end-of-life care and believe that it would be a tragedy for New Zealand if September referendum results in the End of Life Choice Act becoming law.
CMFnz is hosting a free webinar on end of life issues on Monday 22 June from 7.30pm via Zoom, led by Amanda Landers (Palliative Care Physician), David Tripp (Intensivist) and Wendy Pattemore (GP working in Palliative Care). For more information and to register click here.

Responding to COVID-19
