GMHC 2019
The Global Missions Health Conference is hosted annually by Southeast Christian Church in Louisville, KY. Thousands of medical students, residents, physicians, missionaries, and healthcare professionals attend the conference each year. “It's uplifting, it's challenging, and it's revealing. It helps me keep my finger on the pulse of what's going on in medical missions around the world. Spending time with our graduates and current students is encouraging to me. It also gives me an opportunity hopefully to encourage them and to pray with them." - Charlotte Paolini, D.O., pictured above at the GMHC with Launa Clough, D.O., '17
