The Medi-Share Steering Committee members play an important role in our Medi-Share community. The Committee, and the Medi-Share members who make up this independent voice of the members, provides valuable insight and guidance to the Christian Care Ministry staff and the Board of Directors.

And, of course, we will join in prayer, asking for discernment and wisdom as we address the sharing needs for our Medi-Share community.
