MercyMed
of
Columbus
MercyMed of Columbus enjoys a great partnership with the
Columbus Baptist Association. Our mission is to “proclaim
Jesus Christ as Lord and to demonstrate His love by
providing affordable quality primary healthcare for the
physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of the underserved
of Columbus, Georgia.” We operate two primary clinics,
the most recent being MercyMed Mission Columbus on
Steam Mill Road. Since partnering with the CBA to
provide care to the patients of MercyMed Mission
Columbus, we have seen a tremendous response from
patients who utilize our services.
The desire of MercyMed is to present this ministry to
churches in the CBA, and invite them to:
 Learn of our services and how their congregation can
engage with us to receive healthcare.
 Join us by contributing financially to our shared vision.
 Raise awareness of the local mission field-ministering
to the less fortunate in the area.
 Volunteer at our clinics or community events.
Please let me know if you need any additional information
or would like to have someone come and speak to your
church.
