Mission
To demonstrate God's love for the poor and underserved through nursing both in the United States and abroad.

Values
• All persons, regardless of age, race, culture, socioeconomic status, or physical or mental ability, are created in God's image and have value and worth.
As Christian nurses we value human life and advocate for health care that demonstrates Christ's righteousness and justice.

• Christian communities are characterized by relationships of love.
The strength for ministry to the poor and underserved comes from a loving community who share a Christian worldview that encourages commitment to the ministry.

• Ministry is the response to God's call to be involved in His work.
Christian nurses see their profession as more than a job; it's a call and a ministry to others who are weak, ill, suffering and/or vulnerable.

Goals
• Invite nurses to have a personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ.

• Encourage nurses to use their professional knowledge and skills as a ministry in their community.

• Network with other ministries that are serving the health needs of the poor and underserved.

• Develop resources that equip nurses and nursing students to provide health care among the poor and underserved.

• Collaborate with other IV/NCF staff and ministries that advocate for the poor and underserved.
