VISION & MISSION
​
IAMM’s mission to assist those lacking proper medical care encompasses a profound commitment that comes with vast responsibility.
Our work is a call to action! Millions of people are suffering simply because they lack resources to access proper medical treatment.
It’s incomprehensible and unacceptable that in today’s medically advanced society, individuals are dying from diseases that can and have been successfully treated.
At IAMM, we are committed to providing solutions and will continue our fight until every man, woman and child have access to needed healthcare
"Our mission work is lifechanging. Not only do we provide medical care, we’re also spreading the Word and bringing souls to Christ. We’re giving people living in absolute poverty HOPE. Without our dedicated volunteers we would not be able to do the tremendous work that we do."
DeWayne Mason
Executive Director
benefits of missionary service and why youR donations matter
Missionary service is a calling that transcends borders, a mission that goes beyond the conönes of our own lives. It is rooted in a deep sense of faith and conviction - a profound commitment to something greater than ourselves. There are endless benefits of missionary service, but today let’s explore just a few.
For many, missionary service is an earnest response to the teachings of our spiritual beliefs. It is a living testimony to the principles we hold dear, an embodiment of the love, compassion, and goodwill that form the core of our faith. By sharing our beliefs, we reap the reward of inspiring hope, and understanding, while bringing light to the lives of those we serve
Beyond the spiritual dimension, missionary service is a powerful expression of altruism and service. It is a commitment to uplift those in need, to stand alongside communities facing adversity, to extend a helping hand where it is needed the most. Through acts of kindness, compassion, and selfless service, IAMM missionaries become agents of positive change, contributing to the well-being of individuals and communities alike.
Moreover, missionary service serves as a bridge between cultures and communities. In a world that often seems divided, it offers an opportunity for genuine dialogue and compromise. By immersing ourselves in different cultures, we gain insights into diverse ways of life, fostering a sense of unity. In these interactions, we discover the shared humanity that binds us all
Personal growth is another compelling reason why missionary service is so important. Stepping outside our comfort zones, facing challenges head-on, and adapting to new environments contribute to profound self-discovery. The journey of a missionary is transformative, instilling qualities such as resilience, empathy, and a heightened awareness of the world's complexities.
Missionary service also contributes to community building. As missionaries work alongside local communities, they form bonds that go beyond the superficial. These connections create a network of support, cooperation, and shared purpose. In building communities, we not only strengthen others but also önd strength and purpose in ourselves.
In a global context, missionary service allows us to address systemic issues and make a positive impact on a larger scale. It allows us to bring Health, Hope and Healing to our brothers and sisters who need it most. It is a commitment to social justice, the alleviation of poverty, and the promotion of equality. By tackling these challenges head-on, missionaries become agents of change, influencing the trajectory of societies and contributing to a better, more compassionate world.
So today, we encourage you to embrace this calling with open hearts, recognizing the profound impact it can have on individuals, communities, and the world at large. Whether as a volunteer or a donor, we need your support so that our important work can continue.
During any given mission trip, we serve on average 700-1000 individuals distributing more than $500,000 in pharmaceuticals. Your donation is important and can make the difference between hopelessness and hope for someone in need of medical care. Please consider donating today. No one should have to go without medical treatment.
