Servants Health Centre Vision

Jesus said, “If anyone wants to be first, he must be the very last, and the servant of all”.
(Mark 9:35)

Our vision is a general practice Health Centre which is welcoming, accessible and affordable to everyone, regardless of who they are, and which gives holistic care through the varied gifts of followers of Jesus. Servants Health Centre is a place where many people work, as God leads them, towards meeting the spiritual, physical and emotional needs of people coming to the Centre, in partnership with the person, the community and churches.

Our aim is to follow and serve Jesus by giving ourselves to people who need support.

We want to bring living wisdom, love, and truth to the lives of everyone coming to the
Centre

“. . . By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another” (John 13:35)

Servants: What's in our name?

~by Bruce Elder, former Trustee~

You may have wondered how we at Servants came to be called 'Servants'. Is there anything significant about the name? Well, yes there is! When we were setting up the health centre, a group of us wrestled over what we should call ourselves.

We chose the name Servants for a couple of reasons. As Trust members and as followers of Jesus, we wanted to reflect how Jesus lived and served. Jesus came to earth not as a high and mighty ruler demanding everyone serve him, but rather as a servant, stooping to the lowest places in order to be alongside and to serve the vulnerable. The most broken people felt accepted by him because he came not to judge but to help, to serve and to give them hope.

As Trustees, volunteers and staff, we are all inspired by the sacrificial love and service of Jesus. We aim to fulfill the call of Jesus to be a servant to others. Hence our name, Servants.
