Our Vision
Doctors and medical students living wholeheartedly for Christ.
Our Mission
Supporting and equipping doctors and medical students to grow personally and professionally, in Christian faith and expression, in New Zealand and beyond.
Our Aims
The Christian Medical Fellowship of NZ aims to:
- Unite Christian doctors and medical students in their common loyalty to our Lord Jesus Christ by both deepening their Christian faith and by seeking the highest attainable standards of Christian and professional conduct
- Promote in the medical profession personal faith in Jesus Christ and the acceptance of his ethical teaching
- Provide a forum for the expression of the relevance of the Christian faith to the particular issues of our national and local life as they relate to medicine
- Strengthen the work of the University Christian groups, particularly in the Faculties of Medicine
- Support the work of medical missionaries throughout the world
Our Basis of Belief
This is what CMFnz exists for and is grounded on - our basis of belief:
The revelation of the one true God (Father, Son and Holy Spirit) as it is given to us in the Bible, which is the divinely appointed authority for faith and life; the Gospel of our redemption through the incarnation, death and bodily resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ; our regeneration and renewal in holiness through the Holy Spirit’s indwelling; and the expectation of the return of Christ to receive His people and to be the world’s righteous judge.
Everything we do in our personal and professional lives in medicine stems from this.
