What We Do

Recently, the PAACS Board of Directors and Administration team gathered in Chicago for the Spring 2026 Board Meeting to reflect on God’s faithfulness over the past 30 years and prayerfully seek His guidance for the future of the ministry. The meeting included leadership updates, governance discussions, worship, and prayer as Board members continued to steward the mission of training and discipleship for Christian surgeons and related specialists across Africa.

In February 2026, PAACS leadership visited Kijabe Hospital in Kenya to support the anesthesiology program, engage with residents, and encourage ongoing training and discipleship. The visit included clinical teaching, educational sessions, and fellowship with residents and faculty across multiple specialties.

The program continues to grow, with strong leadership from PAACS graduates now serving as consultants, expanding surgical training programs, and new resident housing under development. Kijabe remains a vital training site, equipping Christian surgeons and related specialists to serve with excellence and Christ-centered care.

PAACS continues to integrate evangelism training into its programs through the Saline Process, equipping residents and faculty to share the Gospel in the clinical setting. In February 2026, Mbingo Baptist Hospital in Cameroon hosted its first in-person training led by PAACS-trained faculty, marking an important milestone in this initiative.

The training brought together healthcare professionals, chaplains, and administrators, fostering collaboration in both physical and spiritual care. This effort reflects PAACS’ commitment to training and discipleship, with a vision to expand Gospel-centered care across the hospital and beyond.
