Alpha Ministries

Alpha Mercy Mission

Much of the world has limited or no access to even basic healthcare. Conditions easily treated in developed nations can become debilitating due to inadequate treatment. When we go to Asia and set up a clinic people welcome us with open arms. Why? Because local medical facilities, if there are any, are stretched beyond capacity.

Many living in the villages are overlooked and undertreated. It is not unusual to have patients come to one our clinics who are seeing a doctor for the first time in their life. Almost 80% never went to a doctor or clinic before. However, they do go to the local witch doctor.

The Alpha Mercy Mission is a tremendous testimony for Christ, and provides a window of opportunity for Alpha Ministries pastors and believers who minister in these villages. Also, our Christian believers have a very difficult time because of their faith in many regions. They undergo not only discrimination but in many instances severe persecution. They particularly have difficulty obtaining medical care for themselves and their families because of their faith. They are often beaten and harassed and their burden is great. They cannot help themselves, but they look to the Lord for His help.
