At a free clinic in an Armenian church, IMB missionary nurse Ginny Wheeler watched proudly as Penny, a young nurse from Greece, gently cared for an elderly woman while sharing the gospel.
Ginny has been mentoring Penny to use her nursing skills for God’s glory, showing her how healthcare strategies can directly impact lives and open doors for gospel conversations.
Ginny learned the importance of this approach early in her missionary career in Eastern Europe, where she saw how medical care built trust in communities and advanced church-planting efforts.
Now serving in Greece, Ginny mentors young professionals like Penny, who are eager to meet human needs while learning to multiply the church.
Together, they help people physically while sharing Christ’s love and truth, demonstrating how healthcare can be a powerful tool for ministry.
