Local NCF Groups
• bring hope, positive influence and support to nurses through Christ, near your home or workplace.

• provide encouragement and purpose.

Just as coals in a fire smolder when they are separated, isolated nurses are more easily discouraged. Christ offers the precious gift of Christian community, "For where two or three are gathered in my name, I am there among them" (Matt. 18:20). It is a privilege to know Christ, - to know Jesus' love, forgiveness, hope, and sense of purpose in difficult times. And we have the honor of making Christ known through our actions and words -- among our colleagues, patients/clients and their families. Read Isaiah 42:1-9, and reflect on what will happen in nursing and healthcare as the Lord is made visible. Christ's ministry among people today is strengthened as believers are linked together.
