Join us in the work!
IHCF (International Health Care Foundation) African Christian Hospitals is the supporting / facilitating organization for seven medical mission points in Africa. For several years we have been involved with five works in West Africa, including three projects in Nigeria, and two in Ghana. Very recently, we have become involved in East Africa with two partnerships in Tanzania, including our newest clinic, right on the Indian Ocean. See our IHCF brochure.
IHCF African Christian Hospitals also hosts a medical missions seminar each January in Dallas. This is the largest and oldest medical missions conference in the Church of Christ fellowship. Many organizations, ministries, and individuals working around the globe attend to share ideas, information and fellowship.
Whether you have interest in short or long term missions or simply want to support the work we are doing at IHCF, we hope you find our website helpful and informative. Thank you for your interest in the work that the Lord has to do!

Online Christian Retailer Helps Our Work
We have begun an exciting opportunity with a Christian apparel and jewelry company to allow even more to know and share in the work. A Different Direction, owned and operated by Ed and Debby Burrows, has asked to donate a portion of their profits specifically to our work. In addition, customers are also asked if they would like to donate an additional amount to either our ‘Victory Vitamins’ or to the general funding when they proceed to checkout. This began November 15 and will continue until March 2012. Check them out at www.adifferentdirection.com!
