Kudjip, Papua New Guinea: Bill and Marsha McCoy answered God’s call to serve as missionaries with the Church of the Nazarene over 25 years ago.  They first served in Swaziland at the Raleigh Fitkin Memorial Hospital and now, for the past 17 years have served at Kudjip Nazarene Hospital in the Highlands of Papua New Guinea.  Bill is a missionary physician who continues to share God’s love with the sick, hurting and suffering each and everyday.

Recently, Bill was asked to share about his journey at the Global Missions Health Conference (GMHC) in Louisville, Kentucky.  The GMHC is the largest medical missions conference in the US with over 2,500 attending each year.  The attendees are made up of students interested in missions, those who have served both short and long term in medical missions, and those who are sending and supporting missionaries on the field.  At the conference, Bill had the opportunity to share about God’s call on his life and the privilege he has had in serving with the future generation of medical missionaries.

The speech was recorded and is available for you to listen as he shares from his heart about his journey to and through medical missions.
