Easing Suffering, Bringing Healing
and introducing people to the "Life Giving Presence of God."
About Us
Just Ordinary People
At 15 years of age, Nurse Midwife Edith Cochrane was just an ordinary girl from a poor family. In a prayer meeting, at a church altar, God called her to be a missionary nurse in northeastern Congo, a remote and desolate place deep in the African jungle. That night Edith committed to do everything "For His Glory Alone."
Training Nurses, Midwives, and Lab Techs
Due to the desperate need for medical care in Congo, Nurse-Midwife Edith Cochrane made training nurses, midwives and lab techs a priority in her practice. Here she stands with some of the nurses and midwives that she trained. Today, Congo Nurse Scholarship Project continues her compassionate medical work and ministry by training nurses, midwives, and laboratory technicians for the most remote areas of northeast Congo.
The Results So Far
Dr. Steve Made, our managing doctor in Congo, stands with 6 of the 16 nurses and midwives currently in training. Six of these students are 3rd year, 4 are 2nd year students and 6 are first year students. These students are already easing suffering, bringing healing and introducing people to the life giving presence of God.

Why We ExisT: Our THREE Reasons
1) To Ease Suffering
3) To Introduce People to the "Life Giving Presence of God."
1) To Ease Suffering
Surviving every day life in Congo is hard. Living far from the nearest clinic and having no access to medical care makes life harder.
As our nurses treat people, we ease their suffering, driving out pain and discomfort and restoring hope and the joy of living.
2) To Bring Healing
3) To Introduce People to the "Life Giving Presence of God."
1) To Ease Suffering
Our nurses and midwives are the healing hands of Jesus for people living in the most remote areas of northeast Congo. They bring medical care to those who have little or no access to treatment, Bodies are healed, lives are renewed , and hope is restored.
3) To Introduce People to the "Life Giving Presence of God."

3) To Introduce People to the "Life Giving Presence of God."
All of our nursing and midwifery students share the "life giving presence of God" with their patients. Healing the body is wonderful, but healing the spirit brings complete healing to those who have not heard about how good God is. They are "missionary" nurses, midwives and laboratory technicians.
