Oral Heath Connections to Systemic Heath: Why your mission team needs a dentist
Does brushing your teeth regularly decrease Type II diabetes? We'll discuss that question and many others as we explore connections between oral and systemic health. Because we are so used to the American dichotomy between Medicine and Dentistry, people are often surprised to see and hear how mouth health affects body health. This lecture will seek to remedy that by examining how important a role oral health plays in the lives of our patients who are dealing with a myriad of other disease states. We'll show how having dental care available on a missions team can play a synergistic role in combating various diseases. In addition, we will show ways that dentistry can have a strategic impact towards meeting spiritual needs during short-term or long-term missions.

The Idol of Effectiveness-- Redefining Success: EXPANDED
In a world that loves a “rags to riches” story, Jesus calls us into his upside-down kingdom where success is not always apparent. Dan* and Hope* have served for over a decade in medically underserved areas of the United States, and most recently, in an unreached, unengaged people group in the Horn of Africa. Drawing from biblical insights and real-world experiences, we will delve into the idea that failure is not merely a disruption but a transformative process integral to our mission.

Chronic disease amid chronic poverty
Infectious diseases have been the leading cause of morbidity and mortality throughout history. Today, however, the burden of infectious diseases is diminishing while the mobility from chronic, non-infectious diseases is growing dramatically. Low-resource nations are particularly ill-equipped to manage diabetes, hypertension, chronic lung, and chronic heart diseases. This session illuminates the power of lifestyle improvements, continuity of primary care, and provision of life-saving medications.

Creating Healthy Communities: a Church-based, Community Health Worker-led Initiative
We aimed to assist church members in Hispanic churches to become certified and trained CHWs and mentor them to lead a six-month diabetes self-management program. We found that raising up individuals from the church to become health leaders (CHWs) in their community is a promising model to increase the reach of the church while reducing health disparities.

Not Just Caring FOR People, but Caring ABOUT People
This session will explore the importance of anticipating needs and listening to treat patients successfully. As clinicians, we quickly work towards solving the immediate problem, but the healing process is much more than clinical interventions. Our education and training focus on caring for people, but not always caring about people. How can we best support patients in improving healing from a physical, mental, and spiritual standpoint regardless of the clinical setting?
