Hopital Lumiere is located high in the mountains of southern Haiti, 25 miles inland from the southern seaport of Aux Cayes and a bumpy, four and a half hour drive from the capital city of Port-au-Prince.  The hospital has grown to include the following medical services:  general surgery, internal medicine, pediatrics, obstetrics, gynecology, urology and orthopedics.  Ancillary services include a well equipped laboratory, x-ray department, pharmacy, central supply and physical therapy department.

People come to Hopital Lumiere because they know the care given is excellent and the teams are committed to high standards that reflect good stewardship of God-given talent.  Though fee-for-service, the prices are low because the team is committed to serving all classes and levels of Haitian people and volunteers from around the world give their time to work at the clinic for short term visits.  The facilities are pleasant and the personnel are warm, courteous and active in sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ in the midst of their lives and work.

The primary hospital (Hopital Lumiere) admits about 3,000 patients each year and serves an additional 10,000 on an out-patient basis at the clinic adjacent to the hospital.

A separate Community Health Program at Bonne Fin serves a population of approximately 60,000, offering vaccinations, health training, family planning and prenatal and child development clinics.  Ministering to the needs of the Haitian people gives an open door to minister to their spiritual needs as well.  Each patient is given the opportunity to hear and respond to the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

The Community Health Program has been applauded by USAID as "the model of what can be done in Haiti." CHP is built on patient referral and follow-up programs conducted by local churches.
