The Samaritan's Purse - Canada

Samaritan's purse is involved in spreading the gospel of jesus christ to the utmost parts of the world and exemplifying christianity to others by acts and deeds patterned after that of the good samaritan (luke 10). Our ministry work is primarily accomplished through overseas agents and partners whose activities are recognized by the board of directors to be consistent with the charitable objectives of the corporation. We share the gospel as we undertake overseas ministry programs which include: emergency reponse/disaster relief; distributing gift-filled shoeboxes to children in developing countries; providing clean water sanitation and health and hygiene training; medical care; food security and livelihood programs; sending medical personnel to overseas mission hospitals and clinics; placement of logistics personnel in overseas locations to facilitate all of the above activities. We also respond to victims of disasters within canada by providing physical assistance as people clean up and rebuild after floods fires and other disasters as well as emotional and spiritual support in the aftermath. To further spread the gospel of jesus christ samaritan's purse has recently developed the capacity to house maintain and deploy an emergency field hospital (efh) to increase the ministry's ability to respond to international disasters with life-saving medical care when time is critical and offer hope in jesus' name. Our ministry is recruiting and training additional medical disaster assistance response team members who will deploy alongside the hospital to provide expert and compassionate care that will save lives and reduce suffering while sharing the gospel message.
