Hello and welcome to the homepage of the Christian Medical Association at the University of Michigan!

Our mission is to glorify God by: 

• being a community of Christian medical students, 

• fostering Christian growth in all areas of life, emphasizing the integration of faith into medicine, 

• witnessing to the truth and love of Jesus Christ in our relationships with our friends, our community, and the world.

Statement of belief for the national CMDA  

We Believe:  

• In the divine inspiration, integrity, and final authority of the Bible as the Word of God. 

• In the unique Deity of our Lord Jesus Christ. 

• In the representative and substitutionary sacrificial death of our Lord Jesus Christ as the necessary atonement for our sins.

• In the presence and power of the Holy Spirit in the work of regeneration. 

• In the resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord, and that blessed hope, His personal return. 

• In the bodily resurrection of the just and unjust, and the everlasting blessedness of the saved and the everlasting punishment of the lost.

   

The Christian Medical Association has a three-fold mission. Our first goal is to provide community of fellow believers for Christian medical students, helping them to grow in their faith and equipping them to become dedicated Christian physicians.

Our second goal is to foster spiritual growth in all areas of life, emphasizing the integration of faith into medicine.  We seek to accomplish this goal by bringing in respected speakers, offering mentoring opportunities, hosting Bible studies, planning social events, and participating in regional and national conferences.

Lastly, our mission is to witness to the truth of Jesus Christ in our relationships with our friends, our community, and the world. We seek to accomplish this through outreach and service projects.   We coordinate medical student volunteers at the Hope Clinic, a medical clinic providing quality healthcare for low-income residents in Ypsilanti.  We also provide volunteers for Ronald McDonald House and medical mission trips.

Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for He who promised is faithful. And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds. Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another... - Hebrews 23-25
