Our Ministry | Bethesda Health Clinic ministers to patients in several ways.

MINISTRY

“Now there is in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate a pool, which is called Bethesda.”

Bethesda Health Clinic is a Christ-centered ministry with a bold mission: to provide high-quality healthcare to hardworking low income adults who are uninsured or underinsured.

Bethesda, which means House of Mercy, signifies hope. As we seek to improve the health and well-being of our patients, we follow the Church’s biblical commitment to care for our bodies and our spirits.

Our ministry starts as soon as a potential patient walks through the door. Our admissions volunteers share the love of Christ with each person and take great care to ensure that each person feels valued.

Our physicians and medical staff are more than just doctors and nurses. They listen to our patients, pray with them and offer the hope that comes from knowing that the focus is on improving their overall physical, mental and spiritual health.

Our vision is to serve and honor Christ by inspiring our neighbors to live an abundant life, a life that is healthy in mind, body and spirit, a life that is meaningful, purposeful, joyful and eternal.
