This is a series of sessions from leading experts in healthcare missions.
As the number of refugees surges in the U.S. and around the globe, displaced persons and migrants are increasingly becoming victims of human trafficking. Healthcare professionals serving in either domestic, short or long-term missions can be instrumental in identifying victims and providing culturally relevant care to the exploited in vulnerable populations.

Many mission hospitals have limited or absent rehabilitation services. Rehab professionals traveling to mission hospitals for short-term visits can provide 3 very important services. They can provide direct patient care, provide education, and mentoring where no rehab services are available and can encourage and support the full time missionaries serving there.
This presentation will review the basics on how rehab professionals traveling for short-term visits to mission hospitals can prepare for and provide these services.

2 Cor. 10:4,5. Spiritual warfare is a reality that all Christians, and perhaps missionaries in particular, will encounter. However, not all spiritual battles involve open power encounters with forces of darkness. Though these may receive more attention the more pervasive conflict takes place in our minds. What is the example Paul uses? To gain spiritual victory in this one area would be worth learning the lesson he teaches. But it is just one example of the war we are in and if we are able to recognize and win this battle we will find greater freedom to carry out the mission God calls us to.
