For those with a passion for healthcare and a calling to missions, the International Mission Board has avenues of service ready to fill in MedAdvance 2023.

MedAdvance 2023 is a conference for believers interested in using healthcare strategies to open doors to a hurting world and gain access to unreached peoples and places in unique ways.

The conference will be at Brentwood Baptist Church in Brentwood, Tennessee, Aug. 3–5.

Brennan and Isabel Andrews, medical missionaries are a general surgeon and physician’s assistant respectively. They even knew where they felt called to work, a hospital in Togo. They did not know if they could serve that hospital through the lMB.

That all changed when they attended MedAdvance. They met with IMB leadership and missionaries and learned of the vast opportunities available through the IMB’s medical strategies.

“In the course of one MedAdvance, we kind of got everything figured out,” Brennan said. After that, they were set to fulfil their seminary requirements to go long term with the IMB, and they headed off to language school.

For a couple of years they served in Togo, Brennan at the hospital in Togo and Isabel as a physician’s assistant. They’re now in Paris, doing more language studies after Isabel delivered their baby boy earlier this year.

They’re eager to get back to Togo, focusing on extending the hospital’s reach into the unreached people groups who have little access to medical care or the gospel.
