Membership of NCFI


How do I become a member of NCFI? 

If there is an established group of nurses/midwives already meeting together in your country, and it is a member of NCFI, you become an NCFI member by taking out membership in your national NCF.  Please contact us via the form in the site footer and we will put you in touch with your national NCF.

If there is no national NCF in your country, you may apply to become an Associate Member of NCFI.  Click the button below to see a list of NCFI member countries.  If your country is not listed you may complete the form to apply for Associate Membership.

 

National NCF Membership

National Nurses Christian Fellowships (NNCFs) may apply for membership of NCFI. Those accepted into membership become part of an NCFI Region.  The regions of NCFI are Europe, Caribbean and North America (CANA), South Asia and Middle East (SAME), Africa, Pacific and East Asia (PACEA), and Latin America (CIDEC AL). Look into your region to discover which countries have a national NCF and how you can get involved; or contact us to get connected with NCFs in your area.

Membership into NCFI is granted to national NCFs that are committed to the mission, aims and work of the organization, and are in agreement with the Statement of Faith.  Membership status, rights, privileges and responsibilities are described in the NCFI Constitution and are also found in the Membership Application Form below.

Members of NNCFs and Associate members of NCFI  may subscribe to: Christian Nurse International, the free NCFI Journal, the bi-monthly NCFI-Cares, an encouraging short devotion for nurses, the NCFI Prayer Guide every 3 months, and the NCFI Newsletter “Connections” where you can learn what is happening among Christian nurses around the world. 

Students and newly qualified nurses, (NCFI-NG) may join a monthly prayer network via Google Hangouts.  See NCFI Next Generation.

Members and Associate members will receive early notice and invitations to NCFI courses, seminars and conferences in their region and the World Congress.
