“Medical evangelism is the best way in the world to put Christian ideals into action.

You see with your eyes, touch with your hands, and feel with your heart the love Christ had for people when he helped them.

This is made wonderful when you see the appreciation from a people who now understand that the love God had for all mankind is manifested by His servants.”

— DENNIS D. PRUETT, MD

Our Former Director Emeritus

Brother Clarence Mansfield went to be with the Lord in December 2018. He has been with us since the founding of HASTEN in 1986. Since his seminary days at Kentucky Christian College, he has been a lifelong friend of missions. His wisdom and discernment will be greatly missed.
