Largest student event in CMDA history

I want to personally invite you to join me and hundreds of Christian students and doctors at this year’s CMDA National Convention in Asheville, NC! We will gather for this incredible time of fellowship, learning, and growing together on April 26-29, 2012 at the beautiful Ridgecrest Conference Center.

This year will feature the largest Student and Resident Event in the history of CMDA! In addition to the robust schedule of encouraging, challenging, and stimulating sessions, there will be all kinds of student and resident focused events, including:

»  The 2nd Annual Meeting of the National Student Council
»  The LifeSkills Institute…Live!
»  Worship Around the Bonfire…complete with marshmallow roast!
»  Ultimate Frisbee Competition
»  And much more…

The connections you develop with other students and residents who follow Jesus Christ at this conference…will become colleagues and friends, often for the rest of your life! I have personally experienced (and continue to hear from other students and docs) how impacting this time is as you develop as a Christian doctor…rubbing shoulders with those who have committed to make their practice their ministry.

The world class speakers at our plenary sessions…the special events designed to encourage your growth as a Christian student or resident…and the relationships that develop…just a few reasons to make the investment of time, energy, and finances to join us at this year’s CMDA National Convention!

You can learn more and register online here.

Please let us know if you have any questions ... and I hope to see you there!

With you on your journey,
