FaithCare, Inc was established in 1994 as a non-profit organization to bridge the gap between faith and medicine. The American Association of Medical Colleges challenged medical educators to be role models by teaching medical students and residents how to incorporate spirituality into the practice of medicine. Aware of this and recognizing the need to keep faith alive in the lives of physicians, nurses and allied health professionals, Dr. Peter Schnatz and several other founding members joined for meetings as FaithCare began. The vision was to bring together medical and non-medical individuals who desire to bring health, hope and healing “to and through” the healthcare community. Since 1994, FaithCare volunteers have freely given patients lifesaving access to affordable, holistic and quality health care services through its Wellness Centers, Health Fairs, Visitations, International Missions, Education, and Counseling. Our outreach and medical services extend to needy patients across the nation. We serve as a critical, medical safety net for needy patients, bridging the gap between faith and medicine. Markedly unique, the FaithCare Model allows our global volunteer team to uplift spiritual counseling as an important component of healing.
