Ministry Description
The mission of Baptist Medical & Dental Mission International is to carry the Gospel message to the people of Central America, to established churches, and elsewhere as the Lord leads. This is done through the sending of short-term medical/dental evangelistic teams. We endeavor to support the churches established through programs that provide theological education, pastoral assistance and training, building construction, leadership training and financial assistance. We also have a children's home with a school and another school in Nicaragua. Our project life program provides free medical treatment here in the U.S. that is not available in Central America. BMDMI is solely supported by churches and individuals.

ServantMatch™
BMDMI founded and operates two Bible Institutes in Honduras and Nicaragua. These schools provide theological and church training to pastors and church leaders free of charge. Fulltime and part-time programs of study provide flexibility for students and are aimed at strengthening the leadership of BMDMI churches in these two countries.
Emmanuel Children's Home (ECH) was opened in 2008 in Diriamba, Nicaragua and cares for young girls that are sexually abused. Here they receive all the necessities of life, security, and a double portion of love! ECH is also working with the Nicaraguan government to provide childcare for working women in the community. Children without hope are given the opportunity at a fulfilling and productive life!
The GSCH is home to 200+ kids in Honduras that are abused, abandoned or orphaned. Here they receive all the necessities of life and a double portion of love! Education is provided to them through the Good Shepherd Christian Academy on the campus of the Children's Home. Children without hope are given the opportunity at a fulfilling and productive life!
Since 1974, BMDMI has established more than 120 churches in remote villages in Honduras and Nicaragua. Many of these congregations cannot fully afford to build a place of worship and/or Sunday school rooms in which to meet. We are seeking donations that will allow us to help these congregations build these facilities that will allow them to grow their ministries within their communities.
Each year, BMDMI sends 50+ teams of volunteers to Honduras and Nicaragua to meet the physical and spiritual needs of the poor living in remote, under-served villages. For many Hondurans and Nicaraguans, this is the only medical and dental treatment they receive. Our teams are in need of donations for the purchase and maintenance of eyeglass clinic materials, tents for evangelistic services, etc.
