Overview
Mission
At Mexico Medical Missions we believe that proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus Christ takes more than words – it takes acts of love and service that cause a person to open their heart to the “Great Physician.” We embrace an understanding of Scripture that clearly recognizes that the response of the believer to human need is an integral part of the Gospel. The love of Christ in us and through us must be demonstrated by our actions as well as heard in our preaching. Therefore, our mission is to glorify Jesus Christ among the peoples of the Sierra Madre through acts of mercy, service and proclamation of the Gospel.
What it reported doing in 2025
Operated a full service hospital in a remote, impoverished area of the State of Chihuahua, Mexico serving primarily indigenous persons. The hospital provided outpatient and inpatient care to adult, pediatric, obstetrical and surgical patients. During 2025, the hospital received $200,000 donated in-kind services by doctors, nurses, pilots and administrators.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 96% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
- Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.
The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and most voting board members are independent. The filing reports few safeguards for money sent abroad and the filing does not identify recipients for some grant dollars.
