Lifestyle Educator

Health Evangelism

Get 6-months of intensive instruction in preventive medicine, natural remedies, and gospel evangelism! Receive a better understanding of God’s methods for health ministry. Be prepared for service and for life. If you’ve been looking for Bible-based training, look no further. This is the classic Uchee Pines health evangelism course which has been a blessing to so many.

1. Give hope to the hurting. Get trained in natural medicine so that you can help others without having to write a prescription.
2. Understand the foundations of your faith and grow deeper spiritually.
3. Become a competent health educator so you can confidently share the precious truths of a more abundant life.

Block System

Classes are offered in six, 4-week blocks, with classroom time (chapel class, and the one medical missionary class) occupying one half of the day, and work experience occupying the other half of the day, and with dedicated time set apart for personal devotions and study.

Trainees can register for whichever block they desire in the Lifestyle Educator Course or take the entire course!

Those who successfully complete the entire course will be dedicated, given a certificate, and be eligible to apply for the Lifestyle Counselor Course. For better understanding and a complete comprehension of the topics we encourage you to take the whole course starting in July and January of each year. We will provide inspirational chapel classes each morning when the trainees gather together to seek God’s will on different inspirational topics.

Lifestyle Educator Course begins every July and January!

(Block classes are subject to change so please contact the Center for Medical Missionary Training if interested in attending specific classes.)
