Our Mission:

Heal the sick and proclaim the kingdom of God

Rosaline encountered the love of Jesus and received life-changing surgery at our hospital in Kenya. Scroll down to see her physical transformation!

Jesus sought out the broken and marginalized, and He healed them. He told us to do the same thing. By providing life-changing medical and spiritual care, we share God’s love with patients, their families, and the communities we serve.

With your support, CURE has ministered to the needs of patients and families this year through more than 77,100 patient visits and 11,200 procedures at our charitable hospitals around the world. Each of these activities has given CURE’s staff the opportunity to share the gospel with more than 83,600 people and witness more than 11,100 expressions of faith in Jesus Christ.
