Experience a life-changing mission trip to Baltimore, Maryland, with It Is Written! This mission trip will be strictly a medical mission. It Is Written will partner with AMEN, Chesapeake and Allegheny East Conferences to conduct a three-day medical clinic before a large-scale evangelistic series in Baltimore, Maryland, beginning October 3. Each person who attends the clinic will be invited to the series and offered Bible studies.

There are two components to this trip:

1) There will be a 3-day medical clinic at the Miracle City Church, 100 S Rock Glen Rd, Baltimore, MD 21229. Licensed Medical Providers in Maryland will be utilized in the clinic. Physicians, dentists, physical therapists, nurses, technicians, and any other medical professionals are needed.

2) non-medical support team members are also needed to assist in various capacities at the clinic.

This trip is open to all non-medical providers. Medical providers licensed in Maryland or providers willing to work in non-medical roles.

We will need a copy of your medical license. Additional information will be needed as we get closer to the event.
