CMDA Northeast Region Report

Scott  Boyles Northeast Regional Director (Scott Boyles, daugther Anna, son Wilson, wife Stephanie, baby daugther Lottie and baby daughter Libby)

At the Northeast Winter conference this past January over two hundred students, residents, attendings, dentists, allied healthcare professionals and their families gathered along the Chesapeake bay to come into God’s presence. They also had many opportunities to enjoy each other’s company, the unseasonably warm weather and the renewal that comes from taking time to focus on the Savior. 

Please take a few moments to hear their thoughts on how this conference impacted them in response to the following questions:

How was your relationship with God affected by this conference?

Affirmations of God’s calling; re-centering my life on God’s purpose for me.

It gave me more insight into how God might be calling me in the future.

Renewed my commitment to serving Christ even when it is hard for me.

Strengthening—as He let me know I AM NOT ALONE

This weekend was a wonderful time for me—the talks definitely renewed my focus in medicine—to serve God and to draw people to Him.

I was challenged to be on call for God and to give up all my life to Him.

[By] renewing my faith and trust in Him to work out all things according to His will and this calling He has given me.

What, if anything, is different about you as you return home?

I feel more confident and at peace with where God will take me.

Had the time to think life over and how Jesus is calling me to let Him completely control my life—want to be dead to self—that He may live in me.

Encouraged that so many healthcare professionals are on fire for Christ!  . . . more understanding of how God uses healthcare professionals for His glory.

I don’t feel as lonely as a Christian in my school anymore because I know there are so many others like me out there.

Feel refreshed. God reminded me again about His calling for me.

I realize the vital importance of being competent and excellent in my work—vital to my testimony as a believer in healthcare.

This conference continues to be an amazing opportunity for healthcare professionals to renew their relationship with God and be reminded of His call on their lives. If you were not able to come this year, I encourage you to put the NER Winter Conference on your calendar for January 14-16, 2011. I hope to see you there!
