Two months ago, a 7.7 earthquake struck off the coast of Flores Island, Indonesia. Thanks to your prayers and gifts, H, a volunteer with our partner PKN, has been serving alongside a disaster response team ever since. 🙏

She’s helped with Psychological First Aid for children and women, and served at a temporary church set up after the quake. When a cracked water tank left about 30 households in need, the team helped neighbors agree on how to manage a replacement. On October 17 they began the work together through gotong royong, an Indonesian tradition of mutual cooperation.

Needs remain. 164 students share a single temporary tent for school, and families still need school supplies, fresh food, and hygiene items. Aftershocks continue.

Please pray for the response teams and for families as recovery begins. Gifts to our Disaster Response Fund help partners move from emergency relief to rebuilding.

CHE facilitators had already come and gone in a community where a young girl finally shared the secret she'd carried since she was seven. She told a friend, whose mother had once been a CHE facilitator. That mother listened, believed her, and went to the police. Today the girl is safe, her family is learning to build a safe home, and justice is being done. That's CHE's DNA: what's taught stays. Thank you to everyone who prays and gives to make it possible. 🧡

Each year since 2012, church and missions leaders passionate about integrating evangelism with practical community development — health, poverty alleviation, church planting, and more — have gathered for a few days of what organizers Global CHE Network call “Inspiring, Wholistic, Missional, and Christ-centered collaboration.” That gathering is the International Wholistic Missions Conference, known to most in the network simply as IWMC.

From Arizona to Albania to Chiapas — see why MAI keeps showing up at the world's largest gathering for wholistic missions, and the stories that make it worth the trip.

On August 15, a magnitude 7.7 earthquake struck off the coast of Flores Island in East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia — the strongest to hit the region since 1992. Dozens have died, more than a thousand are injured, and thousands of families are sleeping in open fields and makeshift tents tonight because their homes are gone.

MAI is already responding. Find out how and give to our disaster relief fund. Learn more at https://medicalambassadors.org/stories-updates/urgent-appeal-indonesian-earthquake-relief/

When a young Mbya Guarani mother's plea for a home of her own in rural Argentina led to family rejection and despair, a village assembly—moved by a chief's son's call to listen to women—brought her husband back home. It's a glimpse of how quiet, relationship-based ministry is reshaping cultural norms from within. Read the whole story at https://medicalambassadors.org/stories-updates/the-fruits-of-wisdom/
