Greater Rochester
Medical Community Christian Fellowship
About:
GRMCCF is an informal group of Christian health professionals, primarily
physicians, who gather periodically for fellowship, teaching, and prayer. The
Fellowship has been an active part of the Greater Rochester community for over
25
years and encourages physicians in their personal faith, assists them in becoming mentors to students, and
highlights opportunities to engage in medical missions at home and abroad.
Participation is open to any who consider their personal commitment to Christ to
be a central, defining part of who they are, regardless of denominational
affiliation. There are no membership dues or obligations; we just come as we are
and contribute to each
event as we're able. Spouses and invited guests are always welcome.
Meetings:
Since its formation in the early 1980s, the primary event
sponsored by GRMCCF has been a series of Christian Physician Breakfasts,
hosted twice a year at first and more recently three times a year in the
fall, winter, and spring. The focus has been on collegial fellowship
with one another and members of the student group. Time is set aside for
announcements, prayer, and at least one speaker. Our winter Breakfast meeting has
traditionally been devoted to missions. Attendance usually runs around 40
(30 physicians and 10 students and guests), although we've occasionally had over 50. Spouses and invited guests are welcome. Click on
